I totally agree, you hear the term "2 way player" alot cause the shit is rare. Coaches let so many players score and do nothing else, fans have lowered their standards.

ESPN is the problem, all the kids growing up these days want to see if highlight plays. The mainstream media should be making fun of the guys who don't contribute on both ends due to laziness instead of just hyping their offence.

This. That is how the league is nowadays. I cut my teeth playing D (mainly coz i suck on offense) but too many players nowadays take too much time off when they're supposed to be playing defence.
