You've got to be kidding me. Vince Lombardi was one of the greatest coaches in football history and you're calling him a chump? I'm sure Vince was talking about football when he said it, before Jimmy ever said his version of Vince's quote. The OP had the quote right.
Vince Lombardi said it first:

I agree with you that he meant the way you feel on the inside. I don't think he wanted his players to throw a fit when they lost a game.
I found this on another site:
"Predator has patent# 5725437 for the ferrule. and patent# 6162128 for the internal boring of the shaft."
This one mentions the ferrule several times:

I was hoping the ferrule-less shaft really did...
quick review
Hey Mike, I got this cue today and I just hit about 50 balls with it. Man, You weren't kidding about it hitting great! It looks great too. Thanks for sending it to me this quick and as described!
