I mean it is an exemplar personality, however i get the feeling he is not taking it as seriously as he should, players like froggen who are extremly expericend players want to win and know what there talking about but rick kind of sees this more as a family bonding activity rather than an actual competition
Nicolai Naura strive to be like an owner who has no knowledge on the game? Mixes up the league names (lcs and lck), can't play at all even 2 years after creating a team (for example almost all basketball team coaches and managers have at least some knowledge on the game and have played it. Like for god sake he maxed Lucian e at lvl 8, 2 years after starting.) and to strive to be like an owner that has a superstar team that goes to relegations or doesn't qualify for playoffs every single season?
i dont think any nba owners are knowlidgable about bastketball. hes an owner not a manager. he hires people to do that stuff for him. hes just a face and its his business. and its alot better when ur owner tries to get involved while hes so influencial. its not always about game knowledge its about recognition and inspiration which he does great things.
I still can't get over how awesome this story is. I finally figured out why. I never was as into basketball as everyone else in school (though I respected it). For someone so well known and American in that arena to come into a realm I know and love, it really tells me I'm normal and it's okay for me to love what I do.
M Kun My father literally only had interest when I was playing "his" sports as a kid. I grew up and every conversation was about my schooling, work, and nothing about me. Even if I try having a conversation about something I think is cool or interesting IE computer coding, his response "so you going to get trained in that and make it your job"...
People respond to action. If you want to be a computer coder and your biggest hurdle is your father then prove him wrong with HARD WORK and if he's a half decent man he will see your hard work and determination. The problem is that "computer culture" to most adults is lazy kids typing words and doing NOTHING. Prove him wrong because you eventually have to do one of two things: blame him for your lack of fulfillment in life (as you tried to live his expectations), or live the life you want and be happy and successful and he will come around (if he's a good man, if he doesn't then who cares). Least your father was around, I couldn't tell you where mine is. Grass is always greener. HARD WORK is life's cheat code, excuses amount to nothing.
I am so glad this team wasn't relegated. They're going to be a lot better this year and Rick Fox and his son are amazing people. This video was really enjoyable.
I also love Rick Fox has become this voice for esports into the realm of more "normal" sports. Rick's voice carries weight to it when he says to sports channels that esports is a sport.
That was very inspirational. Its great to see father and son bonding because so many parents I see seem so detached from their kids so this was really great to see. Also I'd love to get a gnar jacket like his.
I SERIOUSLY JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SOOOO VERY MUCH !!! SERIOUSLY THIS IS JUST SO INSPIRING AND EXTREMELY MOTIVATING !!! AND THE FATHER AND SON BOND THAT THESES 2 SHARE IS JUST AMAZINGLY AWESOME !!!
I did the same thing took my sons to see league's in California all the way from Georgia. We had been playing a few years and always wanted to experience a live game. It was great and they got Teemo hats with signatures all over them.
how i see echo fox right now tbh: fox: we're tanking this season so we get first round pick this next draft everyone: but thats not how it works... fox: oh yeah? well we just got DARDOCH BOYS! everyone: you don't know what you're getting yourselves into...
Truly inspirational that someone believing in his son could turn into something like this. I hope Fox finds a place in the new franchise environment and becomes something much more than it even is now, even though I believe that what it is now is enough for everyone involved
At 19:59, Rick Fox says "When they see Rickfox17, they go we all want to kill him...". When I checked that league account, I saw that Rickfox17 is a lvl 10.
I became an Echo Fox fan after I heard he bought the team. I know he's gonna just bring a positive impact for esports in NA. He's gonna make Echo Fox great, I believe in him.
Average player - yes. But he was VERY impactful! I'm a die-hard Laker fan, and his defense was the best on the team. He put the clamps on many superstars in the NBA, and this was highly beneficial. Stats and accomplishments mean little in the NBA.
"They were just so attractive" yup sounds about right lol. These guy is such an awesome dad. Why can't more parents be as accepting as him. There are some none pro players with real talent, who can go head to head with some of the greatest pro players out there and we will never see them purely because of their parents being close minded.
what rick fox brings isn't his gaming knowledge, but his network and connections to sponsors, merchandising and knowledge of building a brand and so on
What a great guy. Win or lose, always smiling and comforting the players. Need more examples like this man.
I mean it is an exemplar personality, however i get the feeling he is not taking it as seriously as he should, players like froggen who are extremly expericend players want to win and know what there talking about but rick kind of sees this more as a family bonding activity rather than an actual competition
but he broke that guys cello
yeah, when ur a millionaire its easy to smile...
+M Chaney That sounds a little untrue.
lol riiight, ill take their mllions and theyt can take my life... see how much smiling they do...
Best teamowner, every e-sport owner should strive to be like Rick Fox.
Sometimes you gotta be rough
sometimes you do but People don't know where the line is

Wonderful movie got a tear bluring my vision
Rick fox is the man .... Wish good luck for the next season.
At least you got another fan

you shouldn't let people dictate what's "normal" for you and what isn't. Live your own life.
tell that to serial killers
Really admire the great father that Rick Fox is. He's so loving and supportive. Inspirational. Best of luck to him, his family and his team.
Rick gets dad of the year award. Tops.
man i wish my dad was at least this cool and chill
Or at least took interest in one thing I did...
exactly, parents nowadays are not bonding enough with their child yet expect us to respect them

Gromitz101 lol every single parent ever
my mom respond to path i take also the same

Very touching and motivational. Wish him the best.
Really inspirational
what a class act
lol don't use that term, everyone knows that is sports commentator for "hes black , but hes accepted by whites"

I love Rick Fox's smile
I am so glad this team wasn't relegated. They're going to be a lot better this year and Rick Fox and his son are amazing people. This video was really enjoyable.

What an amazing dedication by Rick to be able to connect with his son like that
These guys have such a nice father and son relationship :')
Rick fox should stream i would watch that.
This
He does stream www.twitch.tv/echofoxrick
Holy shit I never knew that it was Rick Fox's pep talk that won CLG Summer 2015. Madness.
Damn I finally know why CLG won this one so hard, it was because of Rick Fox giving a motivational speech
Rick Fox gotta play dunkmaster darius
Cole Rosenbalm HELL YEAH.I DIDN’T EVEN THINK OF THAT.
rick fox is inspirational! love him so much for standing up for E-sports and he just seems like such a great guy!
Really a man I look up to just really seeing these people as athletes and supporting them the proper way.
Absolutely love this team and this brand as a whole. Huge props to Rick and Kyle, keep up the great work guys. Classy organization.
That was very inspirational. Its great to see father and son bonding because so many parents I see seem so detached from their kids so this was really great to see. Also I'd love to get a gnar jacket like his.
4:17 that girl is having the time of her life.
Scarra's girlfriend confirmed.
probably forced there by his boyfriend I guess
Rick Fox you earned a fan today, Respect to you sir, Thank you for appreciating e sports !!
Rick Fox is the living incarnation of the "are ya winning, son?" meme dad
am i the only one that never knew that rick fox was the owner of echo fox? like wth....
This was awesome, I love the look into the life of a father, a fan, and an owner.
I SERIOUSLY JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SOOOO VERY MUCH !!! SERIOUSLY THIS IS JUST SO INSPIRING AND EXTREMELY MOTIVATING !!! AND THE FATHER AND SON BOND THAT THESES 2 SHARE IS JUST AMAZINGLY AWESOME !!!
I did the same thing took my sons to see league's in California all the way from Georgia. We had been playing a few years and always wanted to experience a live game. It was great and they got Teemo hats with signatures all over them.
I'm more of a dota guy. but man! I love this man. the respect for the game, the passion, the support that he gives to the whole esports community!
I'm happy for aphroomoo and his dad
this was amazing gj Rick and Kyle and Rito for making this. Loved every second of it =D
how i see echo fox right now tbh:
fox: we're tanking this season so we get first round pick this next draft
everyone: but thats not how it works...
fox: oh yeah? well we just got DARDOCH BOYS!
everyone: you don't know what you're getting yourselves into...
Rick fox is such an Inspiration! Wish him only the best!
Truly inspirational that someone believing in his son could turn into something like this. I hope Fox finds a place in the new franchise environment and becomes something much more than it even is now, even though I believe that what it is now is enough for everyone involved
At 19:59, Rick Fox says "When they see Rickfox17, they go we all want to kill him...". When I checked that league account, I saw that Rickfox17 is a lvl 10.
Kyle fox or Aphromoo?
Hehe XD
993 3:05 its doublelift.
Damn i love this team. So much respect, what a story behind Echo Fox
This guy literally won his sons love back with e sports. That's actually fucking beautiful
Rick is on a whole different level of tactics''am going top lane too ;;;D''
Only his smile, makes me giggle already c:
Rick Fox, the legendary Team Owner everybody wishes for!
it's so great to see how Rick Fox does and wants to run his team.
Good luck Mr. Fox in building up an esports franchise.
I became an Echo Fox fan after I heard he bought the team. I know he's gonna just bring a positive impact for esports in NA. He's gonna make Echo Fox great, I believe in him.
If every son had a dad like this there would be no war
Lol at the end Rick Fox sounded like a singed main.
So true, 'they chase me, its a strategy'
We only saw him on lucian the few seconds his screen showed up on camera.
possibly garen or udyr
Michael Cabrera nn
Where is the RIIIIIIIIIIIIICK FOOOOX spam at
You can't help but love Rock Fox!
echo fox really have a chance in season7 with dardoch.
Big is gone now, they're getting a new support. Might be BunnyFufuu.
I want Echo Fox to do well. Now that they're weeding out shitty players, they might have a chance.
It's Adrian from Immortals
With big gone they'll hella win
Dardoch might join Immortals actually
Wish I had something like this with my dad
Man, I love esports. Even though I dont play LoL, I love the direction of where its going. Not only LoL but other games on the rise.
i love this man! so much passion
Dude was a defensive beast. And made kobe and shaq work like no other. He was the glue guy. Hopefully he brings in that skill set to echo fox.
Did you guys know that Rick Fox is an ex-semi-pro basketball player that owns a LCS team? This is the first I've ever heard of this in the last year.
Look at those weebos who don't have a clue who Rick Fox is on the events.
Or you know just general sports
TMI tbh he's an average player. below 10 ppg in career, only achievments are 2nd all-rookie and playing in 3peat lakers w/ kobe and shaq so yeah
Average player - yes. But he was VERY impactful! I'm a die-hard Laker fan, and his defense was the best on the team. He put the clamps on many superstars in the NBA, and this was highly beneficial. Stats and accomplishments mean little in the NBA.
cr8tive24 he's what you call a Pretty Face Goon and I loved it as a Lakers fan.
I mean im pretty sure alot of them do but their nerds so they are too insecure to go say hi or act like basketball fanboys
Rick Fox best e-sports owner!
Rick, is such a good dad, dang! GO ECHO FOX!!!!
Love this team :) and ownership hope they go far this season!
Rick Fox is such a cool guy, I always root for echofox because of him, at least theyre not getting relegated even tho theyre struggling
I CAN FEEL THIS GUY'S PASSION
thank you rick fox
This was awesome. Ty for the upload.
Major respect to Rick Fox and his son.
i love this kind of league videos *-*
Rick is a really cool dude. Much respect
DOUBLELIFT IN CLG
"They were just so attractive" yup sounds about right lol. These guy is such an awesome dad. Why can't more parents be as accepting as him. There are some none pro players with real talent, who can go head to head with some of the greatest pro players out there and we will never see them purely because of their parents being close minded.
"You don't win a championship, you take it."
Echo fox is currently No.1 in NA LCS it is obvious Rick has done something immensely right in a year
zerog65 1 and I believe they pulled 3rd in the end, which is still really impressive!
AKATzuyu still better than relegation so a huge improvement
I still wonder how much he knows about the game though
Well he can name 5 champions thats probably better than most silver players th-cam.com/video/sN_CSXKr8EY/w-d-xo.html
LOOOOOL
what rick fox brings isn't his gaming knowledge, but his network and connections to sponsors, merchandising and knowledge of building a brand and so on
I really envy them for having such a great father-son relationship I never had That in my life
This is why I'm an Echo Fox fan.
His dad seems pretty cool. Wish my dad would take an interest in league like that.
Honestly this is father-son goals, I wish i had at least something in common with my dad lmao..
Beautiful. I cri evry tim
