I will not dispute your list, however, there are enough "Old School" knuckleheads running clubs that would have 10 Grinders on their list, because they believe in that "grit and sandpaper" BS. (I am still bitter about wasted years for my club whn Pulford, Sutter, and like minded guys held sway.)


Be that as it may, the "Two Best" argument doesn't hold water when no effort on the defensive end is the norm, as it seems the Greaser pair sometimes lapse into.
