This just in: Bobby Knight not a bad guy after all
You may not always agree with what he's done, or said for that matter, but Bobby Knight is a great coach. No one can deny that, and he has 902 reasons to prove that point. That being said, after watching him on ESPNs college basketball tournament coverage Bobby Knight doesn't seem like a bad guy. He's a guy with a ton of great stories, someone you'd love to go fishing or hunting with .... and I don't even hunt.

I'm pretty sure Bobby Knight once "mistakenly" shot his hunting buddy in the ass. Happy hunting jerk!
So did Dick Chaney ... the worse a shot you are, the more you're bound to be a celebrity. Which brings me to one of my favorite movie lines of all time "Harry, you're alive! And you're a terrible shot."
As suggested, I'm back like vertebrae after burning off a fraction of the calories I consumed this afternoon.
Anyhoo, on the subject of Bob Knight: Yes, he's a good coach. Yes, he's entertaining to listen to on ESPN. That, however, does not excuse the fact that his a total freakin' nut job who, if he hadn't quit coaching, probably would have gone psycho and murdered a reporter with a microphone sometime in the near future.
Good guy? I wouldn't go anywhere near that far.
And now he's a member of the media. This is like an NBA player who after being a crack addict, cleans up and now preaches to young kids how crack kills. The man has come full circle.
