I agree that this argument isn't making any ground and am happy to leave it at that.

Exactly, he doesn't give a flying fuck about anyone else getting hurt. He couldn't be more of a phony if he tried.

Great coach, deplorable human being. Fairly common knowledge around these parts.

Care to elaborate? :huh:

I can probably sum it up for you: queencitybuckeye doesn't like Duke.

i believe there was a kid 5-10 years ago in a state championship game maybe in ny or in the northeast somewhere who got caught under a pile after a basketball game and suffered brain damage from lack of oxygen. i had this happen to me once after a football game and it was horrible.

I sensed that, but to call him a "deplorable human being"? I hope he's basing that on something more substantial than not liking the school he coaches at.

I highly doubt it.

But I can't wait to hear what he has to say. Most likely some sob story about how K skipped town when his back hurt or how he called himself a leader of men in a credit card commercial. Yawn.

I've got no problem with students storming the court or field but IMHO they should never get into it with a player or coach. After OSU beat Michigan in football (I think it was 98) I watched the students storm the field and one of the OSU fans dropped a shoulder into a Michigan player. The player punched him right in the face, deservedly so.
