Yes but more vulnerable to bring sacked by barbarians, cruciallyIn the nbas case we have more stability though. Theres individuals but less individual conviction.

I should've put money on this bet. Anyone see last night's game against the Kings? Against the Kings for chrissake.Lakers get fucked
thats actually a really good question and I dont know the answerThis is not basketball related but I think we agreed to make this a general minority sport thread so, I got a question about American football.
It strikes me that the game has an extraordinary number of rules and at the same time the roles of the players are extremely specialised. I'm thinking about the guys who are really just a part of the plan made by the brainy guys who lead the team, they are a cog in a machine.
So my question is about these guys; to what extent do they need to know all the rules? Are there people who simply know that when the ball is thrown they need to run over there and hit that guy, but, who ultimately don't understand the tactics of the game, or even the rules?
Thank you, i would truly like to know the answer. Like if there was some situation where they unexpectedly asked a pro for his opinion on a big game and he just said "Sorry man, no idea, I don't even know the rules, I just smash the guys in the other coloured helmets".thats actually a really good question and I dont know the answer
I thought there were, loads of stuff about who can stand where and when. I guess cricket has a lot too probably... but compared to something like... I dunno, to pick one I know, I reckon you can fit all of the rules of squash in about one paragraph - Hit the ball inside the red lines, don't let it bounce twice and after you hit it it's got to hit the end wall before it bounces on the floor. When you serve you gotta stand in that box and hit it above the other line and into that box. Then there is scoring (there are two different systems) and stuff about getting in each other's way and probably some regulations about the ball and racket and that's about it I think.also, I'm not sure there's an extraordinary number of rules.
as long as they can perform their specialised function to perfection then what does it mater if they don't know what goes on in the rest of the game?
Kinda like how on a production line if you have someone who is fantastic at making wingmirrors does it matter if they have no idea how to make a gearbox... in fact do they even need to know what type of car that they are making... of even if it's a car, or what a car is?
