Athletes are different. How different is always the question. What happens after your favorite players leave their sport is the best view of how different they are.

THE CHIPPER THAT SLICES AND DICES

April 4, 2014 by

Fast track coaches do things differently. They take risks. Chip Kelly is one of those coaches.
