The former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach has spent around 12 years building a virtual city. Some people have questioned whether he should have spent that time on football instead. Draymond Green, however, does not agree with that criticism.On The Draymond Green Show, the Golden State Warriors star defended Mike Tomlin. Green rejected the idea that an NFL coach must spend every free moment watching football film. He said having a hobby outside football does not mean Tomlin failed his team.
