Michigan women’s hoops coach Kevin Borseth thinks his team’s rebounding is offensive. He busts his tail end getting these girls ready to play, and for what?! I guess this shows that there’s some good stuff happening on the Big Ten Network.
Make sure you watch the “rate the rant” commentary at the end. There’s a good shout out to Dan Hawkins in there.
Remember when Allen Iverson was talkin bout practice? Of course you do, because it’s one of the greatest sports-related moments of all time. This version of the video is especially awesome, because of the practice counter:
Last week, local sports reporter Vic Lombardi asked Iverson about talking about practice, and hilarity ensued. Watch the video here: CBS 4 Denver — Iverson Grades Lombardi on “Practice” Impression.
This is Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State football coach. He’s mad because a reporter criticized one of his players in this article. I don’t think anything in the article is bad — if the guy really was being fed chicken by his mom, he pretty much deserved to be made fun of for it. Anyway, if a quarterback can’t take a harsh word or two from the media, he might as well bow out of football now and start thinking about a career that involves a cubicle and little contact with the outside world.
There’s nothing I love more than a good coach meltdown, but this dude is pretty lame. Talking about someone crying to his mom after being called fat is funny, but he needs to get off the “if you had a child you’d understand.” Maybe it’s good that I don’t have a child, because I don’t understand and I’m perfectly happy to talk shit about anybody.
This screen shot is evidence of the ridiculous ass kicking I did this week in fantasy football. My team did many amazing things:
While we’re on the subject of things that are good, Jim Thome hit his 500th home run yesterday — the first-ever walkoff 500th, and he did this on Jim Thome bobblehead day, no less. I love that guy.
If Wesley Willis were alive today, I’m pretty sure he’d write a song about Bobby Cox being ejected from a game for the 132nd time (a new record).
Bobby Cox has a hot temper
he’ll kick your ass and get tossed from the game
his face gets red like fire
he is special to me in the long run
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
He’s been a madman on the field 132 times
his record isn’t tainted or marked with an asterisk
he never used performance-enhancing drugs
Bobby Cox whips Barry Bonds’s ass with a belt
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Maybe next time he’ll do the army crawl grenade thing
like that crazy-ass minor league guy
he’ll argue balls and strikes
and the umpire will feel the power of Bobby Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
Cantankerous Cox
He’s in the Hall of Fame of coach meltdowns
He makes Bobby Knight look like a delicate flower
Who would win in a fight, Bobby Cox or Ditka?
Well, Ditka, but Bobby could take anyone else

Phillip Wellman of the AA Mississippi Braves had an excellent meltdown on Friday — it’s worthy of my meltdown hall of fame. The army crawl/grenade part is my favorite.
After the Dan Hawkins outburst today, I would like to relive some of the great moments of crazy coach outbursts.
This is my favorite of all time — the Bears are who we thought they were (too bad we couldn’t crown their ass this year).
Jim Mora would like to discuss the playoffs.
He also said “diddly poo.”
Minor league coaches also suffer the occasional meltdown.
Royals manager Hal McRae doesn’t like stupid ass questions.
John Chaney will kick your ass.
Another T for Bobby Knight….
Herm Edwards reflects on why we play sports.
Not a coach, but good anyway — Allen Iverson discusses practice.
And because I can’t resist, where does Reggie Evans get his cookies?!
