#1 covers just about everything

Zac Taylor said he has only two team rules for the Bengals:
• Protect the team
• Be on time

"What's a 'ruke'?"

Cool I guess?

#1 I'm sure is a very, very large umbrella.

He also said at the end...

"Pants Are Optional"

Wait. Were people still wearing pants? Gross.

Protect the team from what?

This sounds goofy.

It is like saying "Do good".

*Do well.

Must be working....

I don't think so.

"Good" is an object of the verb "do".  Good is being done.

It is not an adverb describing how well the "doing" is being done.





Or I could be wrong.

Yeah basically don't do anything stupid that would bring negativity to the organization.  For example, don't be a Deshawn Watson!

Really?

I can tell you’ve never lead a team or business. Hope this helps

From threats..


Now I wonder what he wants them to be on time for

Yep.

Perfect example of the type of language coaches and politicians are famous for.

Yep, in the past, coachspeak has gave us great phrases like "do your job" and "run on your own gas", etc.

I can tell you have never led anything in real life.

The link you posted would be rules for Zac, not the players.

Try again.

I’ve employed over 500 people in my lifetime and was on Nike’s inaugural customer service national board so you’d be wrong.

And yes that link was to try to explain to you what protect the team meant which it went way over your head.

I agree with the ambiguity of it being a little simplistic. But, was it Leonardo who said that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication? Donatello? It was one of the Ninja Turtles. I know that much.

It's quite an umbrella policy/word, right? I like it for the younger guys. It's a super young team. Maybe they just needed a singular concept to latch on to and grow from there?
