Episode notes

The NFL is a brutal sport, especially physically. How do you evaluate after the fact? And does that change from year to year? Is it can you improve? Do you try to do better? How? You we were always doing after action reviews. It let's say this continuity having success and being a team of 53 men for three hours.

After nearly 12 years as general manager for the L.A. Rams, Les Snead has learned the power of humility when it comes to making big decisions--who to draft, who to hire as head coach, and how to create a shared vision for his team. Listen as he and EconTalk's Russ Roberts discuss what it's like to manage a professional football team along with the intense pressures that come with the territory. An episode for every fan who has played Monday-morning quarterback, and all of us who wonder how those who play for high stakes survive and thrive.
