Bud use to call Coach K "turkey lips". Needless to say, that stopped a long time ago.EarlJam wrote:Who the HELL is THIS guy!?
What is Duke thinking!? We're gonna replace Foster with some clown that probably can't even spell his own name? Mark my word. This is a mistake! This is a HUGE mistake! You would think now that we are out of the 70s, technology would allow for a more qualified search than some coach, hell, I'll just call him "K." Can't we lure in some hot shot coach with the promise of free state-of-art cassette tape players or VHS players (just got a new kick-ass Zenith one for $600 today by the way!).
This is fuggin' embarrassing. Pffffffffffffffffft! Coach "K."

I had a cataract removed from my left eye this morning. It went well. I'm happy to have it over. Of course, I have one more to go but it will be awhile.

I'm so happy things went well, I'm doing my happy dance, or rather happy bounces for you.
