Great perspective from David Aldridge

More proof as to why David A. Is by far the best sports analyst on the planet

Just catching up to this thanks Honz for the find, this is what I was thinking in my head but he says it 1000x better then I could in my own head. Thanks Aldridge and I guess you to Honz.

He'd gotten perspective three decades ago, when he'd accepted the head coaching job at the University of Evansville, his alma mater, in 1977, after his playing career ended. But Sloan changed his mind and never coached a game for Evansville. Later that year, in December 1977, the entire Evansville team and coaching staff was killed in a plane crash. So while Sloan always demanded his team's best effort, he understood that losing wasn't death. Truly, it wasn't.

That is really interesting.

Yes, that is an excellent article. Exactly the way I feel about his retiring (resigning) whatever.

Good article.

For some though, this doesn't make Deron out to be the devil to be satisfying.

Being a journalist myself, I have to say this IS a great article, and by far the best I've read so far. Like I said in another post, Deron is not the villain, but the catalyst.

I like that.
