I offer an analogy. Which of these has no place in baseball:

1) a pitcher throwing inside (even if it's at a batter but not high)
2) a pitcher throwing at a batter's head

Hopefully everyone says #2, because that is an attempt to injure your opponent and has absolutely no place in the game.

Analogy to this situation. Had Cheney simply sent in the 'goon' to 'use his fouls up' or to 'roughen up the St Joe's players a lil bit', no harm would've been done. But, to instruct his 'goon' to go in there and try to hurt someone crossed the line.

Cheney's long laundry list of instances overshadow his status as a HoF coach as far as I'm concerned. Being a HoF coach should not give him the power to 'go out on his own terms'. He chose these terms.

I hope the administration at Temple will stand up and show the world that they will not condone these actions, irregardless of whether they were made by a Hall of Fame coach.
