O’Reilly is a pompous asshat.
No fan of BOR, but I don’t see any questions about “black” players in the excerpt.
It was a fascinating interview, as BOR was laying mines in front of Calipari, and the coach was pretty adept at sidestepping them. I was thinking how any response that could be construed as “racist” would SINK his basketball program. Predictably, Calipari seemed to know all the politically correct replies, as if he had professional PR training.
Coach, you know how THOSE PEOPLE are? Do you allow them to listen to blues records around the white players?
I don’t have to watch the Colbert Report, I got The Factor.
That sure tells you how his miniature brain works.
BOR has us “folks” covered. I nominate him for sainthood. /s
Once the players become employees, they can be fired.
Maybe he gives them Loofahs.
I’m glad BO is out there. I can’t watch him about half the time. I have no doubt the size of his ego is only trumped by the size of our universe. But overall, he is an equal opportunity antagonizer. My personal rub with him is that he calculates his perceived bias when taking a position on things. In some cases he plays the middle hard. But I do have to give him credit for pushing the hard issues and tough questions (most of the time).
LOL! What an asshat BORe is!!
Calipari, could not control them at U Con or U of Memphis, what makes Bill think he can at Ky?
better question to ask is are you going to pull the same recruiting stunts you pulled at U Con and U of Memphis, on KY?
U of M lost those awards, titles, etc. U of M’s new coach Josh Pastnor (SP?) is a far better coach than Calipari ever was. Higher grad rate too.
"Bill, I know must be tempted by all the attractive women in the FOX News studios, Does FOX News have eyes on you all the time to make sure you're not harassing them to the point they sue you?
Whatever BOR is, this is a legitimate line of questioning. You have a coach of an elite sports program who, aside from instructing men in basketball, has the added duty of keeping them out of trouble. I think shining a light on just how difficult that second task has become makes an important societal commentary.
As for BOR being racist he is describing anti-social behavior without mentioning race. The only racial connection, which BOR does not make, is that poor behavior is common amongst elite college basketball players and most elite college basketball players are black.
Like him or not, he presented several great ideas about the state of the NCAA and was very sincere. He was also promoting his new book "Coaching from the inside out."
He did not say “Black”, he said “kids”, he said “them”.....bad headline for the content and exact quotes.....spinning
I don’t see anything wrong with the questions and I am no BOR fan
He asked how to deal with talent from the hood.
I do love to watch race baiting Freeper lips curl though....
Boy...we have few of them now though compared to the old days
When they just sat on threads dying to say something was racist
At this point I am long out of give a damn about what passes for white racism today
I can’t think of any reason to post liberal hate pieces... the site you’ve chosen is a thinly disguised hate site. Why did you want to share something this offensive?
