This joke is not funny any more. Only the first time it was.
By the way, I do not get why the most of you care so much about LGL's words and phrasing. The overall idea is quite clear and much more interesting. His intention certainly was not to make introverted players like Shang Kun shouting all the time like Harimoto. Of course, pushing yourself can be one part of that, but not the only one. It is also about confidence, body language, aggressiveness, being courageous in the most important moments and a lot of other aspects. I am pretty sure that LGL meant all of these things when he said that some players like Shang are too passive, too shy or too kind at 9:9 while others fight for their life.
You have to show your opponent that he will not win. You can do this by shouting at him but you don't have to. Someone here claimed that Jan-Ove Waldner was not shouting much, as well. That's right. But his behavior was dominant anyway. He never hesitated, he played his best balls or some new variations when games were tight and his whole attitude was like this of a poker player how bluffs. On the contrary, some CNT members are hesitating when they miss a lead or if the play international or in a final. This is what LGL wants to overcome.
