Bitter, bitter disappointment

I don't know where to begin today.

There's an article in this morning's Columbus Dispatch that says that Bobby Knight is out of the running for the head coaching job at OSU. Which is good, because what that program needs is so no-name to calm the raging excitement about it. I think OSU basketball is a little TOO hot right now, and the administration should bring in some stiff that 90% of the fans haven't ever heard of. That will make the program, in effect, invisible, and take the heat off.

Edit: Okay.. I've had some time to cool off and think about it, and yes... Tom Crean from Marquette is a much better long-term answer for the program than Bobby Knight. Thad Matta could be too. But man, it would have been suh-weet to have the General come home to retire. End of backpedalling

Then, I plop down to watch ESPN 25's list of the worst teams of the last 25 years. They showed about 45 seconds of game video during the whole hour, mixed in with a couple interviews from people saying, "yeah, they sucked" and about 53 minutes of random shots of people saying "number two" (or whatever) and Stuart F-ing Scott.

When I make a list of the biggest wastes of my time in the last 25 years, that program will rank near the top. F-U, ESPN.

This day sucks.
