Tank McNamara On Kobe Bryant (& Us)



Tank McNamara constantly refers to ESU (Enormous State University) where the administration tries to put spin on the arrests and bad publicity accompanying the win at any cost ethic. OJ Simpson as a commentator on Fox? On CourtTV? After Pete Rose was invited to Amarillo by the Amarillo Young Men's Christian Association, the apocalypse is upon us. Bring 'em on!

The faculty at Baylor University has scheduled a vote of confidence in President Robert Sloan, Jr. next week. I hope they run the sorry sumbitch out of McLennan County. HE hired the AD who hired Dave Bliss. Clean house! Bliss' administrative assistant tried to blow the whistle and was threated with her job by the AD. Then, the Board of Trustees needs to search its soul and ask itself if the largest Baptist university in the world has any business with the ESUs of the Big 12. Coach Bob Stoops (University of Oklahoma) reinstated his starting strong safety after charges were dismissed (possession of marijuana) because of faulty evidence. The player has to sit out one game. Perhaps Coach Jim Calvin was ahead of his time at Amarillo College: clearing the cells of the Kentucky penitentiary system of hoopsters.

I am reminded of the booster — Big Ed Bookman — in Dan Jenkins' Semi-Tough. In the recruiting campaign for a hotshot Texas high school running back, Big Ed instructed the coaching staff at ESU (whatever) to promise the recruit that he would have his own 7-11 convenience store. He can rob the sumbitch as often as he wants while he's playin' for us!

No confidence in President Robert Sloan, Jr.!

If this be (fair & balanced) treason, make the most of it.
