When sports writers use something that happened in their sport to prove "it's the greatest game of all" or something to that effect....
I don't want to be seen to be potting rugby league as it's an easy thing to on BF. I like the sport, but this morning provided a great example.
Penrith coach Ivan Cleary was sacked yesterday. Daily Terrorgraph wrote an article that finished "Last year's Dally M Coach of the Year is now unemployed, proving that rugby league coaching is the toughest job of all".
professional sports coaching is one of the toughest jobs on the planet, no doubt about that. It's a 24/7 all encompassing job that provides little to no down time. It takes an extraordinary toll on one's personal life and relationships. And only a handful of them get to quit on their own terms. Almost all of them are fired. But no need to make it out like rugby league coaching is any tougher than being an AFL coach, an EPL coach (manager) or coach of a national cricket team. They are all extremely tough gigs, under the most intense of pressure.
