ESPN is not renewing Bobby Knight's contract.

For a second I thought maybe they were moving all the old folks to a single section... but this is good, too.

One wonders if his yelling on TV in a rather rude fashion contributed to his contract hot being renewed. It was a bit weird that a TV commentator would yell at a paying customer, a fan, for doing what they paid for. See a game and cheer for their team.

Exactly. If they were yelling obscenities, I would understand getting upset with them. They did nothing wrong.

BTW - it would be really funny:
1) If the Student Section had giant Bob Knight heads for next year's games; and/or
2) If our marketing people could play that clip over the video boards during the game.

And especially because he's a lazy SOB. He couldn't see because he leans about four feet back in his chair instead of, you know, doing his job. Obviously he couldn't see. No one could from that vantage point.
