A coaches job is to put their team in a position to win. Not to cling to lofty ideals about the spirit of the game. The spirit of the game went in the dumper when they turned it into a TIMED GAME!!!
Rise is correct, as a coach, it's my job ( during a game for a berth ) to manage my team for a win. I will use the rules, statistics, gut feelings to come out on top. This is a game of chess, many moving parts for the "checkmate".
