I like Bobby Knight.
I have since I saw him fly fishing with his buddy Jerry McGuinnis on the "Fishin' Hole". Sure, he's got some "anger management" issues. Most people that have a desire to win do.
You might be completely correct that he should retire. The times have changed. There are no longer Vince Lombardi's either.
This "incident" is one of many for Bobby K.
Times have changed. Drive to win hasn't.

DTS: Appreciate that he shares your enthusiam for fly-fishing BUT....flying into rages is alot more than anger management issues. This dude has always been out of control. He reminds me of the movie "The Great Santini" where winning is everything, no matter who you crush. You've seen his news conferences, I'm sure, he has always had a 'chip' on his shoulder and I think he's a detriment to Sports!
