A Reality Show For Men: Bobby Knight's Basketball ClinicHe'll take 16 top prospects and subject them to his, uhhh, unothodox methods of inspiration. The winner gets a spot on his Texas Tech team. His elimination catchphrase? Not "You're fired." Just "Duck, because I just threw a chair at you, you cocksucking pussy-faggit twat." He's already looking to get it trademarked. Thanks to RCL, who frets: Bobby Knight will have a reality show in which he will "whittle" contestants. "Whittle"? Mr. Knight has shot a hunting companion, choked players, attacked fans and committed too numerous attempt ADW's (assault with a deadly weapon) with chair to count. And these are merely the documented attacks. Now he is being charged with "whittling" victims/contestents. There is something horribly irresponsible about this. Kind of like that Fox gem, " When Animals Attack", but no one is going to go after Knight with a tranquilizer gun for some payback. Sorry to disagree. I think he'll go out of his way to seem like a nice reasonable guy, which will mean ratings disaster. Dance with the girl that brung ya. Throw that chair, Bobby. Throw it like the wind.

CommentsI love the guy. Period. Posted by: compos mentis on August 8, 2005 02:57 PM
I just can't picture Bobby K playing "Mr. Niceguy". He won't be throwing chairs, but he won't COMPLETELY sell out either. Should be interesting. I'll watch at least the first episode and go from there. Posted by: Gun-Toting Liberal on August 8, 2005 03:01 PM
I cannot believe Texas Tech landed this guy. Posted by: Dave in Texas Tech on August 8, 2005 03:07 PM

Ace, I've actually had personal experience working with Coach Knight during his tenure at Indiana University and am very good friends with someone who worked for him for almost 20 years. So, allow to opine in your comments about this... Knight will be exactly who he always has been and he is not the guy that "RCL" caricatured him as. But he also won't be fluffy and loving; he is going to be a hardass, basketball coach with no tolerance for stupidity or laziness. This aspect of Bob Knight is what has made him take barely above average basketball players and make them champions. Unfortunately, his meglomania and his belief that he can never be wrong is also his worst enemy (I've been critical about these character flaws in the past). He won't turn into a "nice guy." For those that have known Knight for years know that he consciously shuns and abhores faking it. You'll see a solid performance out of Coach Knight, and you'll also learn A LOT about basketball. This may be the first reality TV show I'll ever watch. Posted by: TF6S on August 8, 2005 05:18 PM
Sure, the General can be an ass, but we need more like him. IU's loss is Texas Tech's gain. Posted by: T. Harris on August 8, 2005 05:36 PM
Sure, he can throw a chair like the wind; but does the chair slice like a hammer? Inquiring minds, and all that. Posted by: Rich on August 9, 2005 01:13 AM

Tousi TV: France closes embassy in Tehran, US Department of State advises all US citizens to get out of Iran
He's been saying that Tuesday will be a decisive day. Other reports say that Trump is in the last stages of planning an action against the mullahs. (And other reports say that Tucker Carlson Simp JD Vance is attempting to get Trump to agree to "negotiations" with Iran -- for fucking what? What do we get out of saving the fucking mullahs and letting them kill and torture their own people? Apart from Tucker Carlson getting to pretend he's a Big Man Influencer and that he's worth all the Qatari money he's receiving.)
