The Game Manager, Week 11: A very special episode

Every once in a while, 80’s and 90’s sitcoms would air a “very special episode,” which would feature less comedy than usual in exchange for tackling a serious subject.

In that grand tradition, which brought us Tom Hanks as Alex P. Keaton’s drunk uncle, and Punky Brewster being offered cocaine, I’m stepping away from my trademark forced attempts at “humor” in order to explore a subject in depth. Like the best of those very special episodes I want to tackle an important and weighty issue: How good a game manager is Kyle Shanahan?
