In Solidarity & With Pride

Peter V’landys MIA: How the Lomax Affair Exposed Cracks at HQ

Is Toby Rudolph worth chasing?

I was reading a Fox news article today about Toby Rudolph without a Manager and having to call other coaches himself to understand what he's worth to them before he can negotiate with the Sharks. Rudolph is definitely a player we should at least have

David and Goliath: Lomax and the Shadow Wars
