Red Lake football team hasn't won a game in years, but coach keeps kids undefeated

They often play against opponents with twice as many players. Sometimes, coach Nolan Desjarlait wonders how he keeps doing it. The answer always comes: "I refuse to give up on them."

A must read piece in the Star Tribune today. Would be cool to see this coach and his players recognized at a game next fall.

That right there is journalism, my friends. Well done, Chip.
 







Finally was able to finish it, but this is the kind of piece that led me to grad school and sports writing back in the 2000s. It's a shame what has happened to newspapers the past 15 years, but bravo to Chip and the Strib staff for very quality journalism.
 


Incredible. Beautiful.

Nor all the books upon the shelves...
