Deadspin
As you've probably heard by now, Bob Knight has resigned as coach of Texas Tech because he's "tired of coaching. Obviously, much more about this tomorrow, but for now, we'll say this: Growing up, there was no more fierce Leitch family villain that Bobby Knight. He served as a stand-in for all that was wrong with the planet. We have slightly different feelings now, but no matter to all that: It's obvious that we will miss him immensely.
Goodnight, Knight

Shoulda been you, Coach K
No sequel for you, Brian Dennehy.
I knew this day would come someday. I swore I wouldn't cry....[sobs]

He'll now have all the time he needs to practice his game face.
I think Bobby Knight is now looking for Will to grab him by the neck for calling him "Knight".
Hey Isiah, go follow the old guy
Coaches around the nation will be throwing chairs onto the court tonight in remembrance...
Can we bury him upside down, now?
Bobby is obviously retiring to focus on his golf game.
Choking a player, chair throwing, giving rape victims advice - man whatever prompted this has gotta be good.
In his speech after win 900, he gave kind of a backhanded compliment to the crowd, saying something like "it's nice to play to a full house...it'd be nice if that happened every game."
Going from IU to a non-basketball school must've been kind of tough, whether he'll admit it or not.
Well, if you are retiring, might as well lay back and enjoy it.
Knight's neighbor doesn't appreciate Bob's shooting finger pistols near his house.
He's a genius as a coach, but it's sad he still can't tell his right from his left without help.
Where now will I get my auto parts?
@matt_t: I had forgotten about that. My hate is back in full force.
@matt_t: +1
I for one will be glad to see him go. A pity it didn't happen 20 years ago. He's a horse's ass, but I'll admit that he's good fodder for sites like Deadspin.
So are we here now?
Hey, Bob, if you're over the hill and an asshole, and there's nothing you can do about it, just sit back and enjoy it.
@UkraineNotWeak: I'm never all here. But this is as good as it gets. Also, I don't know if you checked the end of the last thread, but that is not the new Nats park in the picture. This is the new Nats park: [sports.yahoo.com]
I'm not going hunting or into the woods, or anywhere near a tree while Bobby Knight has free rein to wander about with firearms.
I just threw a chair through one of the walls in my apartment in homage.
@UkraineNotWeak: Are any of us really here?
/existentialism
@Nationalcoholic:
It was a joke. I know it wasn't the ballpark.
belichek is the new knight.
@FiddlingWhileJimRomeBurns brought to you by Diebold: Neat. I just bullwhipped Calbert Cheaney in homage.
@blackheartededitor: +1
Knight's moving in with Parcells in Florida to make a sitcom. The Blanche character will be played by Belichick.
New show on CBS. The Captain with Jeffrey Tambor and Racquel Welch in the cast. I'll give it a try.
@ClueHeywood:
Al Davis as Sophia.
Picture it, Brooklyn 1943...
@UkraineNotWeak: Yea...I'm giving it a shot also...this should be interesting...
"I think that if retirement is inevitable, relax and enjoy it."
@That Bootleg Guy: See Matt_T, 8:18 p.m.
@Yostal: The date: January 21st, 2009. Somewhere in Texas, Dick Cheney and Bobby Knight decide to go hunting because they have nothing better to do...
Apparently, red's a bad color to be seen in public in this week.
@12-Inch Idongivafuck Sandwich:
Racquel Welch: Resident Cougar
evening all.
I like how today's date doubles with each part: 02.04.08
I also like pudding. As a word and a dessert. pud-ding. That's nice.
As you can see, I'm doing fine with the whole Pats losing thing.
@White Speed Receiver: ...there were no survivors.
You know, Titan is only scary in a prison shower kinda way.
Evening all, I promise no graphically sexual stories tonight.
@buttons: This joust segment is very strange.
@Tracy Ham and Eggs as played by Walter Mondale: Where are the ones from another night?
Look he was sick and fucking tired of an 8-10 record
and he was sick and fucking tired of losing to Purdue. Can you blame him for quitting?
@matt_t: More than the usual homoeroticism. Or par for the course for a Titan-involved event, I guess.
Ah. Crush. Much better.
@UkraineNotWeak: Yesss...but this Hope character, now she's the winner...
@Tracy Ham and Eggs as played by Walter Mondale: What did I miss in previous evenings' stories?
*leans forward*
@Candygram: I made a foray into daytime deadspin today...
Couldn't have happened to a nicer douchebag. I'm sure he'll be a fixture on CBS or ESPN by next week.
@12-Inch Idongivafuck Sandwich:
She can pup my tent anytime.
@Tracy Ham and Eggs as played by Walter Mondale: Yes you did. And it was horrifying in a way I cannot fully explain without turning off the parental lock.
@Tracy Ham and Eggs as played by Walter Mondale: I just read that story. That was quite a picture you painted.
@Yostal: Thus the reason I promised no more anologies tonight.
@Tracy Ham and Eggs as played by Walter Mondale:
Link, puh-leeze??
Uh, since when can you stay down on one knee the entire time in joust? They used to DQ you for not getting up.
@Tracy Ham and Eggs as played by Walter Mondale: Very detailed, to the point I actually kinda felt bad for the poor fella. Unless, of course, I was the girl in that scenario, because hell, I GOT mine!!
/ducking
@Candygram: hell, if Im gonna link it, here goes..
I think I know what it feels like to be a Pats fan right now after losing the perfect season in the Super Bowl
Its like you see a hot chick across the room at a party. You are feeling like youve got your A Game working, so you approach her. After a few minutes of conversation you get to dancing and shes going nuts. Hair flying all around, grinding on every inch of you, letting your hands roam, just in to it. After a little of that she tells you its time to go.
You take her back to your place, and pour some drinks. Within minutes you are making out on the sofa. Then the floor. Then the kitchen table.
She takes her top off and then removes her bra, and they are incredible. Big round and natural with no sagging. A tight stomach leads down to her dress, which is now on the floor. Next come the panties, and this beautiful creature is buck naked on your kitchen counter. You are ready to go, but she insist that you get her ready first.
So you go to town. You are getting work DONE. I mean, this is your best effort. If it wasnt for her pulling your hair and shouting your name you might have forgotten to breath. You are using skills you didnt know you had and she is LOVING it. She is working up to climax... almost there, almost there, and she cries out your name in pure pleasure.
You drop trou, ready for your turn, knowing you are about to have one of the greatest nights of your life.
And she looks at you with those beautiful eyes, looks deep into yours and says "Thanks, that was fun", grabs her clothes and goes home.
@UkraineNotWeak: I don't know how I feel about that show...I dont' think it will survive...
Im going to go sit quietly in a corner now...
