Yeah, I heard this guy talking on the radio last night, ripping college BB coaches like they had raped his daughter or something.
I had never heard him before.
He came off like a totally arrogant deuchebag. In other words, he's just like 90% of all sports "commentators" these days.

I would be surprised if that combination of words was a coincidence. You gotta remember, these guys make a living with words. I doubt that one just happened to fall through the cracks.

Dispatch
Reynoldsburg schools
Tressel aims for 4-0 in levy campaigns
Tuesday, March 4, 2008 3:01 AM
By Charlie Boss
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Even in the off-season, Ohio State University football coach Jim Tressel scores wins. His record is 3-0 in endorsing property-tax increases that voters subsequently OK'd for Columbus, Gahanna-Jefferson and South-Western schools.
His latest effort: Reynoldsburg schools' $56 million bond issue for new schools and building improvements.
Voters received recorded phone messages from the coach yesterday, asking them to vote for the bond issue that would pay for a new high school and elementary school and upgrades for six buildings. Voters rejected a similar request in 2006.
Tressel lives in Upper Arlington and won't have to pay the new tax -- about $150 annually per $100,000 of home value -- if it passes. Still, his support matters, said Len Hartman, co-chairman of Reynoldsburg's campaign group Citizens for R Schools.

Ohio State football
Tressel fundraiser to go on
Even with changes, coach's appearance dogged by questions
Wednesday, March 5, 2008 6:50 AM
By Ken Gordon
THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Despite controversy, the show will go on tonight for the 300-some people who purchased tickets for "An Evening with Ohio State coach Jim Tressel." Invited by officials from Cincinnati LaSalle High School, they will pack the Receptions, Banquet and Conference Center in Fairfield. Those who paid a premium will sit with Tressel at the dais, have their photo taken with the coach and leave with an autographed football.
But because of concerns that such events might violate murky NCAA rules, this decades-old tradition of inviting college coaches to school fundraisers might soon come to an end.
"Like everything else, most things work for a while and then get cut out because somebody abuses it, or there's a concern of abuse," said Grant Teaff, executive director of the American Football Coaches Association. "It's a slippery slope. I'm sure (the NCAA) will take a look at this."
The NCAA prohibits coaches from speaking at an event that raises money for a high school. The concern is that a coach could gain a recruiting advantage.

I was fortunate enough to attend this event last night (Mrs. Briegg sprung for the premium tix for valentines day  ). Not only was it awesome meeting Jim Tressel, but we spent much of the evening talking with George Jacoby and his wife Nina (my wife flirting with him didn't hurt). George played on Woody's first team (1951) and was a captain and all American Tackle in 1953.
What a great evening - it'll be a shame if these type of events are brought to an end.

REPORTER: As great as everybody loves the tradition of the game being the last game of the year, do you foresee the possibility, with all the changes in college football right now, that eventually the Big Ten might have to go to two divisions and have a championship game?
TRESSEL: Not by Saturday. So, I don't know, I don't give it any thought.
