I was giving a Coming Attractions post. I have now corrected the misspell. Although I now have an uncontrollable urge for a nice carnival size elephant ear

Do most of the people who dislike his mechanics think they play a part in his play calling? I don't necessarily like his antics either, but I think he is more mechanically sound than some well-known West coast officials - their antics happen during live ball and impacts their ability to get into the proper position.

The worst thing anyone did in this situation is let Bobby Knight talk about officials.

Amen, Snaq! I'm sure Knight would be happy to hear Gerry Pollard (and many others who have endured Knights' antics over the years) on national TV talk about the "worst" things coaches do.
