Coach K

How do you treat the cleaning lady at the hotel, or the gate rep at the airport when your flight has been cancelled?

How do you treat the pimple-faced classmate when everyone else is stealing his pencils and shoving him into the lockers?

How do you treat the officials when everyone else is dumping on them?

I'm sure it's a character flaw for a man who's otherwise an upstanding person. From a basketball perspective, though, I don't like to see that sort of court-side behavior rewarded with a win. It sends the wrong lesson to kids and coaches we deal with at the lower levels.

Very astute as well as being verbose, concise, succinct and...menopausal.

I was kinda running out of adjectives so I just stuck the last one in to see if anyone was paying attention.

Trying to remember if I've ever written anything that was accused of being both concise and verbose.
As for "menopausal," STFU!

Hey, I thought it was just a little more apt than "delicatessen".

I have a real conflict when it comes to Duke. As a lot of you have said, it's hard not to have animosity toward Coach Howevertheheckyoupronouncehisname because of the way he treats officials, but I have to root for one of his players, Kyle Singler. He's a great kid, a really good (and clean) player and he's from here in Oregon.

I know he's a clean player because his dad stated he makes Kyle take at least 5 showers every day.

Um...aren't verbose and concise antonyms, while verbose and menopausal could very well be related?

Does anybody with a consonant or vowel in their name really give a sh!t?
