Erik Meijer: AGILE must be destroyed, once and for all

"a scrum runs up the field passing the ball to each other"

I spend a fair bit of time watching rugby and it seems that these days a scrum is something that starts with an attempt at organisation that rapidly turns into a collapsed heap with a random assignment of blame and punishment as a result.

Come to think of it that's not a bad metaphor for a lot of software development but I don't think its something to aspire to.
