Xavier Clarke is the assistant coach I'm most unimpressed with.
For Patch Adams, put it into perspective.
From last year to this year, he no longer has;

They can't really 'send troops' until Ukraine is formally in NATO, and Ukraine won't formally join NATO until the war is over.
Nobody wants a full-blown conflict between NATO and Russia. But also nobody wants Russia to steamroll over a sovereign neighbour.
So, the status quo at the moment...
That's more than the violent prisoners Russia is sending to fight in Ukraine get at least;

Ukraine will join NATO, precisely because Russia invaded them and demonstrated the need to join a European military alliance.
IF Russia never invaded, then they definitely could have brokered a treaty that included Ukraine never joining NATO.
Massive Russian own-goal.
Sure.

I'll go against the flow and say I reckon people are over-reacting.
He's contracted until the end of next year.
An early contract extension when he's down on form simply costs him money. His manager would be doing him a disservice if he accepted an extension now.
I reckon they're hoping he...
Why though? Is Russia going to launch an offensive deep into Ukraine, and beyond the areas they claim are independent/Russian territory?
If that's the case, doesn't that prove the case that Zelensky, NATO, and the EU have been making? That Putin won't stop unless he's stopped?
It's a pretty...
Better than not getting anything.
Between the American and European packages, which are both individually LARGE, this does shore up the Ukranian defenses for a while.
Well that's a separate issue isn't it. So many of our poorest performers are on long term contracts. :(
It really ties our hands behind our backs with options.
Yeah to be fair it turns out Free is much older than I thought he was. I'd probably change that.
For some reason I had in my head that he was like, 20 or 21.
Yes, I do;
"Majority Still Favors Supporting Ukraine in Reclaiming Territory
Fifty-five percent of Americans think the U.S. should continue to support Ukraine in reclaiming its territory, even if that requires prolonged involvement, rather than ending the conflict as quickly as possible, even...
Here's the thing; our list is bad. I think most rational fans agree with this sentiment, given the evidence at hand.
As I said in another thread a few days ago, I think North fans have a duality where we understand our list is bad, but when it comes to talking about our individual players we...
There's plenty of photos of destroyed armor coloumns from both sides. That doesn't really 'prove' their efficacy one way or another.
My original point was simply that the Ukrainians seem to like the Bradleys, so it makes sense that they would request more.
From that above list, which 7 players would you delist (or hope they retire?)
North currently has 6 draft selections in this years draft. That doesn't include any players we try and bring in via free agency.
We need to say goodbye to, most likely, 6 to 8 players from that list. Tough...
Huh?
A majority of Americans say that the United States is not doing enough to support Ukraine.

Correct me if I'm wrong (I cbf looking it up right now), but haven't there been multiple reports out of Ukraine that the Bradley has out-performed expectations? They still have something like 2/3rds of the Bradleys they've been sent (despite copping an absolute pounding), and Ukrainian...
