It says a lot about an NBA coach that absolutely nobody has ever said a bad word about him. Not current or former players. Not a pissed off ex-assistant coach. Not anybody in the media. Not even the fans. He was universally adored as a human being, and not many people n the planet, let alone a coach in the grinder…

Worth mentioning, and something I always advocate for, is that in rugby, you have to at least make an attempt to wrap up on all tackles.

Cool story, Bro! Tell us more!

That’s because this article is 0% substance.

I’m impressed that fans of a team as successful as the Patriots can remain so perpetually butthurt.

Brady looked deflated

Except none of those players have the cardio to last more than 2 minutes of action in rugby. Sounds good in theory, but these guys would run rings around them. Same way you can’t just put rugby guys in helmets and have them see the field in the same way.

that’s generally what happens when the little fast guys get stuck in the middle of the field in sevens. I try and clarify this to them when I coach: stay out wide and be fast. let the bigger guys take the hits like that.

This isn’t Darwinism. This is teenaged boys and their teenaged brains at work. Most of us escape our teen years having done something stupid that could have killed us. It’s a sad story and the fact that these boys were brothers compounds that tragedy.

Rolling my eyes on this narrative of Cam being put upon by the media. ONE stupid woman wrote a letter detailing her daughter’s negative impression of Cam (likely fabricated as the mom later recanted when people around her told her how dumb her whining was.) Cam says just as dumb of stuff, saying how white America…

As a American who loves to play and and watch rugby, and who loves deadspin, I am always happy to see rugby highlights on deadspin. Especially seeing former teammates and opponents during the RWC. But this is shit Timmy. Absolute shit. You are doing the sport a disservice.

That’s called not being an asshole.

I mean I also thought the skit was pretty fucking gross, especially given that it was performed by kids from an infamous bastion of casual privilege and elitism like Stanford. As I’ve grown old, I’ve turned into kind of an uptight killjoy when it comes to any more fortunate group jeering at the less fortunate.

One of the few times something from Buffalo has been able to slow Gronk down.

Did I just get lucky and not go to a school with psychopaths? What the hell is this shit?

Please tell me the guy faking the injury for the red card on this one.

Yeah, D is the downfall here—they need to find a way to get Dieng in the lineup more, but that doesn’t help the offensive spacing and ball movement. Lavine is horrible on D but he has the tools if he gets developed. Mitchell’s just a placeholder. Mostly is just a couple of pieces not fitting together, lack of outside…

Rubio’s fine. He can’t shoot from the field but he does a lot of great things on the floor (2nd on the team in PER). Surround him with the kind of playmakers Kidd and Rondo have been allowed to play with and

Ricky: Not the problem.

Biggest problem on the team is Mitchell’s offense, not Rubio. Rubio doesn’t have to be a shooter on this team, even though his shooting percentage isn’t nearly as bad as Rubio haters make it out to be. As of today, 3-pt percentage: Westbrook .291, Rubio .290, Irving .270, Mudiay .268, Rose .264, A. Rivers .257, M.…
