Persistent Pressure

There will be times when we step back and employ a "vanilla" defense. But most times, we will persistently inflict pressure on opposing teams in an organized, effective fashion.

In ancient times, those skilled in warfare were able to prevent the unity of the enemy's front and back, the many and the few, the noble and the peasants, and the superiors and the subordinates.

Have the enemy be separated and unable to assemble;

if the enemy is assembled, it should not be organized.

Move when advantageous, stop when not advantageous. 

—Sun Tzu

Persistence is a mind game. The stronger the mind, the more persistent the pressure. I believe that under pressure, we will prevail over any opposition because we have prepared for exactly that level of intensity and heat.

The strongest metals have been forged under the hottest of furnaces. When it is cooled and formed for battle, iron sharpens iron, and we have sharpened and sharpened day after day.
