"Anger that you're feeling in that moment, that's just information about the game. That's maybe information about your current performance or information about your opponent or information about how you feel about getting body bagged. Right? All those, all that information. It's just, it's not a sign that anything's good, bad, wrong, anything. It's just data." - Dr. Alex Auerbach

"If the anger helps you perform better, by all means, use it to facilitate increased energy, but if it starts to, you know, take away from your focus or hurt your performance, or you start playing out of control in a way that is not consistent with you, right. Break that contact, slow yourself down, have your teammate talk to you slowly, get a drink of water, right?" - Dr. Alex Auerbach
