I feel like just getting this to OT is a victory for us.

I feel like I answered that question in literally the first sentence of the post you quoted.





I don't know, I don't have access to their practices.



It's not only on the coaches. But to say the coaches have zero percent responsibility for multiple players on their team consistently making mistakes across multiple games is crazy. They are literally hired to help players stop making mistakes and improve their games (in addition to other things, of course.)

That's why you hear so much talk about "team culture" every time a new coach is hired.

And while I hope the players wouldn't blame the coaches for their mistake, it's certainly fair for outside observers and the coaches' bosses to question why the coaches aren't helping players to correct those mistakes.


I think it's pretty crazy to assume any of that without specifically knowing what goes on behind the scenes. All of those penalties, and especially the personal fouls, are on the players. Those penalties are on the players because the players can control that 100% without any coaching necessary. Unless you have specific evidence that the coaches are specifically coaching the players to do that, or you have evidence that they're not correcting penalties, then you can quietly go back to not commenting any more because we don't need any more dumbassery than we already have around these parts.

We’re trying to lose. Maybe we’re playing for a draft pick?
