But, if you can’t laugh at yourself, then what’s the damn point? I’ve never been shy of acting like a...

His brutal changing of the Colorado roster left many of the players high and dry with droves of portal players coming in to take over the open spots on the roster. Rhule had the opposite approach, with an emphasis...
