  "textContent": "Desperate times call for desperate measures, which of course means that Tottenham Hotspur and John Tortorella are in the news simultaneously.\n\nSadly, their paths do not converge, or anyway do not  _yet_ converge, beyond the fact that Spurs have fired another coach in their Salute To Catastrophe season, and Torts got another coaching job in a different sport on a different continent. But we must live in hope when hope feels like a pointless exercise. You know, like five days out of every seven.\n\nSpurs are a cavalcade of garbage all their own, which is why Igor Tudor lasted barely six weeks before the toe tag was applied, but Torts getting pulled off television to coach the last eight games of the Vegas Golden Knights' regular season, plus whatever playoff stint they can steal, is its own tale and worth telling in its own right. Within it is a bet that the team that won the Stanley Cup three years ago and has missed the playoffs only once in its entire existence desperately needs a swift boot up the jacksey. And whatever else can be said about him, and there is a lot, nobody is better booted than Torts.",
