Yeah, you are probably right. I had a semi-legendary HS football coach in his last years on the field.

I think the write ups are a big part of it. That ego needs to be satisfied. It's not enough to win. He needs to be the reason why the team wins.Richie Allen wrote:I really do think that is the biggest problem I have with LaRussa.
