What follows ia a partial interview with Texas Tech Raiders Basketball Coach Bob Knight on the ESPN Sports Network abotu his friendship with his opposing Team's coach, Steve.
INTERVIEWER: There's a preception Steve, when you went to Iowa, you 2 guys drifted a little bit. How much was fact, and how much was fiction?
BOB KNIGHT: Let me answer that, you know that's an absolute crock of [BEEP!], you know you [BEEP!]-in' people in the news media, all you [BEEP!] dwell on some negative piece of [BEEP!] like that. I don't know how Steve feels about it, but that just [BEEP!] [BEEP!] me off. And you don't have to beep one single [BEEP!]-in' word of this, because we went to the thing at the Big 10 and Steve and I didn't even see each other at the Big 10 thing and it comes out of it that we don't talk to each other, so all you media people can go [BEEP!] yourselves when it comes to something like that. I don't know if Steve has something to do with it or not.
INTERVIEWER: When you...uh...Steve when you...
BOB: One thing I wanna ask you, why you even bring some [BEEP!] thing like that up?

This is one man I can't stand. This is just one of the many reasons why.

Indiana University is fortunate they FINALLY got rid of the NUT and wish Texas Tech didn't have to contend with him either!

It's never too late to take some anger management courses, Mr. Knight.

The only thing they can do is lock him in a padded room in a straightjacket.

You guys would probably hate me for this. But I actually like Bobby Knight and his coaching style..
1. He always has a high graduation rate with his players
2. He is very tough with his players..
3. He always has won wherever he has gone..
Plus even though a lot of us can't stand his antics.. He is good for basketball.. I always laugh when I hear his antics. I think Bobby Knight is a good coach..
Just my opinion.. Please be civil if you bash back

I would also add that very very few former players have anything bad to say about him. He is old school. He is not fit for todays "PC" society.

People who use so many four-letter words usually have limited vocabularies!
