I'd like to tell you what I really think of you but I don't want to sink to your pathetic level.


Let it go, Padge. You're dead on right, but it's not worth your effort. Old School and some others on this board only recognize one kind of racism, apparently.

Don't be mad at me, be mad at our sports society because it is true. ESPN will cover and phrase anybody who does or accomplishes something great in sports. That's my point. Where does it end? They seem to have no morals.

It's amazing how many people develop strong opinions about something they have never been directly associated with. I have known several players who have played for Knight. He does most of the BS to have fun with the media - it's his enjoyment. Is it right or wrong? Who cares. The media btes on it and gives them something to talk about. Did you see him playfully hit the player under the chin after the win. He does most of this on purpose because of the reaction it gets. Behind close doors and doing his job, the majority who dal with him like the guy a lot. Sure, there are a few that don't and rant and rave, but don't we all have that? By the way, you all should learn about how Rick Pitino treats people behind close doors but is an angel with the media.

ESPN will give Hitler an award if he won this many games.

Neither of these statements has any place on this board. Please stop talking about these issues here.
