What good is your team if it doesn't work?

I understand that teams are a collective of individuals geared towards obtaining a (or several) main goal(s).  Teams can be as large as a college football team, 85 scholarship player not including walk-ons.  Or they can be as small as a Mens/Womens Tennis Doubles team.  Regardless of the size, there are going to be times when at least one person is going to need help or an encouraging word from someone else on their team.  This is where the other teammate(s) need to step up and provide some form of help.  Even though I no longer play organized sports, I still have a set of teammates that are there to pick me up when I'm down or need the motivation to keep going.  Being a good teammate isn't about putting up gaudy numbers or garnering a lot of attention, being a good teammate is being there for your team when they really need you.  When someone needs your help, whether it's on a busted play, or weakside help, or if they lose their job...will you be there to have their back?  Individuals are only as good as their team, and a team is usually only as good as its collective individuals.
