Throughout his 17 years as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin has had some incredible soundbites that have stuck with people.
Lovingly, they’re called Tomlinisms.
“The standard is the standard.”
“You blink and I’ll cut your eyelids off.”
“The secret is there’s no secret.”
The list goes on and on and on when it comes to Tomlin and the Tomlinisms.
While they can sometimes be viewed as ridiculous sayings to help fill conversation with Tomlin and the media, players gravitate towards them. The Tomlinisms stick with players, both past and present.
