So with college football being over (see my last blog about every BCS game being a 40 point beat down) every good football fan needs some way to spend their free time. Here are some links to the most infamous coaching rants ever:
“Playoffs?!?” by Jim Mora (Indianapolis Colts-NFL)

Most iconic soundbite ever. Everytime someone says the word “playoffs” I think of this high pitched rant.
“You Play to Win the Game” by Herman Edwards (New York Jets- NFL)

I love the step back and stare. Timing is everything in a good rant.
“Game Face” by Bob Knight (Univ of Indian- NCAA Basketball)

He’s the master. If you think this is amusing there is a montage of Bob’s work on YouTube.
“It’s Division 1 Football” by Dan Hawkins (Univ of Colorado- NCAA Football)

I heard they made t-shirts that said “Colorado ‘It’s Division 1 Football’ Football” at CU.
“Who We Thought They Were” by Dennis Green (Arizona Cardinals- NFL)

Congratulations, you’ve lost your job but won a Coors Light commercial.
“Stupid Ass Questions” by Hal Mcrae (Chicago Cubs- MLB)

This is why therapists get paid.
“I’m a Man” by Mike Gundy (Okahoma State Univ- NCAA Football)
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoMmbUmKN0E&rel=1]l
Maybe the best pure blowup on the list…other than Hal Mcrae
“You Know What This Is All About?” by Mark Mangino (Univ of Kansas- NCAA Football)
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuCqE8tMfEs&rel=1]
Mark, coach of the year…way to say it like it is.
I couldn’t find Lou Piunella with the Reds or John Cheaney with Temple. Please let me know if you can think of any I missed.
Enjoy!
