What’s funny is that you guys waste your time commenting on this garbage. You realize you’re just feeding the monkey, man…… or the troll.

TBL — Did you block your number?

No.

I hope if this site apologizes to Mr. Knight for putting him on record without consent you do so as publicily as you’ve miscast him here.

Ok.

possibly the greatest comment thread in TBL history. You guys are the best.

I honestly think Knight has some kind of mental disease, Asperger’s or some other form of autism. You listen to him on these Big 12 games with Musburger, who is just desperately trying to make Knight seem like a human being, but he can’t.

Maybe you should look up the name Landon Turner.

If you think this is unprofessional, Jon Stewart crushed a personality at CNN for doing this. ON LIVE AIR. AT SIX IN THE MORNING. http://warmingglow.uproxx.com/2012/01/yeesh-tugs-collar

I know this subject is a pet peeve of Richard Dietsch’s, who I very much admire. But of ALL the conflicts of interest at BSPN — I wouldn’t know where to start — Dietsch is going after Knight, who at least has made his biases known up front?

TBL :

It seems you are the moron calling up the coach like you did. You call this good work? Waste of my time. What else did you expect? Moronic at best. Get a life and do a real story …

Let me get this straight, The Big Lead calls Coach Knight, who isn’t known for his personality, on his personal cell phone without revealing where they got the number (cold call much?), to intentionally ask a question that you know will rile him up, and when he treats you like a telemarketer and declines to comment on the record, you post the conversation anyway and complain about him?
Who cares if he like Kentucky and why? I say that as a Kentucky fan. Any person deserves more respect than that, especially one of the greatest basketball coaches ever.

Exactly. Yes, let’s bring out the bad occasions for Knight from the past. I really like Jason but this is just hatred and has no place. Whenever Jason messes up – or if someone finds his screwups from the past – I’m sure we can bring that out 15 years later and hold it over his head. That’s a cool thing to do.

I am not a Knight apologist. But, the above point is legit and Knight is very funny on the new commercial (way funnier than the boring discount money belt). The view on that commercial is all about disliking Knight or finding him entertaining when he parodies himself.

JMac is the Cosmo Kramer of journalists. His life is a fantasy camp, comes up with a blog, sells it for 7 figures and works for the company from home.

Bob Knight is morphing into Evel Knievel. “I’ve got a caller ID here; who called this number?”

Wow. I’ve been a TBLer since 2008, but this is pretty…bad.

I don’t know what’s worse, saying “go to 1:20″ on a video that ends at 1:20 or randomly calling an analyst on his cell phone when he has no idea who you are and then asking a random question and expressing disappointment that he didn’t respond to you kindly.

Yikes.
