Les Miles shuts reporter down

the article Les Miles gets it for some nice ripping of some talking heads


ESPN is a factory of awfulness. Three of the network's college commentators are Lou Holtz, Mark May and Lee Corso—two of whom are old and drool while talking; all of whom still have a problem putting words together to form cogent thoughts. Don't get me started on Rick Reilly.

Over at Sports Illustrated, if Peter King isn't writing a long column about nothing in particular, the magazine's head writers are cooking up copy.

Fox continues to have meaningless pundits such as Tony Siragusa and Daryl "Moose" Johnston. Moose wouldn't know the term redundancy if the word tackled him. He hangs onto clichés for an entire broadcast. That's four hours of someone “not being a gamechanger” because Johnston doesn't know what a synonym is.

Meanwhile, Terry Bradshaw is coming to you at halftime, talking so fast he jumbles words together, making highlight reels comparable to a coked-up scene at Studio 54.

I get that Bradshaw's a hometown hero, but he's also a walking/talking advertisement for what happens when you get tackled too much (see also: Troy Aikman, Mike Ditka, Boomer Esiason and Ron Jaworski).

and this is why the media loves Les Miles.

He's more like a screw-loose, but that's just me.

 

[AfrikaBlack]

That's all Bo right there.

 

[BucksFanInGA]

he's just goofy...

Mofo is crazy. Love it.

I always like it when a coach puts some pussy reporter who has never played the game of football in their place....

Mike Gundy is an ignorant ass. Les Miles just sounds like a goofball redneck with all his "sumbitch" and "frickin" and "honest to petes." Come on. And the gratuitous, forced chuckling by nervous LSU writers at the end was equally silly.

I think you nailed it

BTW, Bobby Knight's bullying of cowering, moronic reporters is on a level that will never be reached again. He's the all-time greatest because everything he said was right and 99.9% of people agreed with it.

Indiana just lost by 17.

Reporter: "Coach, how does your team feel after this loss?"

Bobby Knight flips over conference table and walks out.

Some definite and major personality issues but he's a fascinating guy. One of a kind for sure. I hate to see guys like Bobby Knight getting replaced by perfect little prototypes like Brad Stevens.

Show me on the doll where you were touched.

As a member of the media, questions like this embarass me. This is why players/coaches hate the media.

Ole Leslie never disappoints me when it comes to public speaking!

Bring back Jimmy "The Greek", that guy told it like it is as was a terrific game capper to boot.
