onetime--exactly. even though sports managers deal with situations not as important as running a country, the best ones are still working their butts off and don't lead balanced lives. the best managers, in general, are workaholics. look at fortune 500 companies, the best US presidents throughout history (i hope you don't think ronald reagan was one of the best--consider instead jefferson, washington, lincoln, both roosevelts).
it's true that being a workaholic does not mean you're automatically a good manager, but I think it's clear that the best managers are workaholics.
