The paragraph below was lifted from an op-ed piece on Fox Sports website:
“Knight has thrown chairs across the court, thrown a photographer into the bushes, kicked his son and shoved a fan of an opposing team into a garbage can. He twisted the arm of an Indiana freshman and cursed at him for addressing him as “Hey, Knight” instead of “Mr. Knight” or “Coach Knight.”
Wait, was that supposed to make me hate Bob Knight? Because it actually made me like him more, maybe want to invite him over for dinner.
I wish Bob Knight would dump that reporter in a garbage can. In fact, I would pay $40 to see Bob Knight slam Jeremy Schaap into one of those old metal garbage cans, turn the can on its side, and kick it down a really steep hill full of rocks. Make that $50.
Shut the fuck up Fox Sports, and every other channel that sent out their biggest blubbering vagina reporters to cover this huge non-story.
Bob Knight is completely nuts, he also happens to be one of the most successful college coaches ever. And Texas Tech players CHOOSE to play there, it’s not like there’s no other options.
