Ragin' Rick...

What if I was to tell you that you could cheat on your wife, pay the woman you had sex with for an abortion so that the affair was kept hush hush, and then lash out at the media for making your family's life "pure hell." Is that something you might be interested in? For any of you unfamiliar with the show Entourage and the famous movie director Bob Ryan's small part, you unfortunately might not find this as comical. Oh and did I mention you happen to be one of the most decorated coaches in college basketball?

No, I'm not talking about Bobby Knight but rather Rick Pitino, who led the Louisville Cardinals to the Elite Eight last year, eventually losing to Tom Izzo's Spartans. About a week ago now, reports were released that Pitino had sex with Karen Cunagin Sypher about six years ago. After telling Pitino she was pregnant and did not have medical insurance, Karen received $3,000 from Pitino to pay for an abortion, which he claims was for insurance.

Apparently Mr. Rick Pitino has tagged us all as insanely ignorant idiots.

This morning Pitino spoke briefly at a news conference following recently released audio and video recordings of an interview with Ms. Sypher in which she claims she was sexually assaulted. In response, Pitino attempted taking a position of power and discrediting the media for reporting on her accusations. Did you forget that you are being accused of a heinous crime here Mr. Pitino? Maybe you are the insanely ignorant one in this case...

Pitino made the greatest statement of all when he said in the press conference, "Everything that's been printed, everything that's been reported, everything that's been breaking in the news on the day Ted Kennedy died is 100 percent a lie, a lie. All of this has been a lie, a total fabrication of the truth."

Wait a second, I realize Ted Kennedy died, but in what part of this scandal is he involved? Hmm...I'll await your answer on that one.

Not only that but Pitino proceeded to say, "It has been pure hell for her and my family." (Referring to his wife.) Well DUH. You blatantly admitted you had sex with this other woman and then gave her $3,000 for who knows what. Maybe a Coach purse? Ha.

The least you could do was to politely admit your faults again instead of harshly criticizing the media who has your image as both a person and a college basketball coach in their hands. BIG mistake.

BREAKING NEWS.............FAVRE IS NOT WELCOME IN THE NFL ANYMORE.

Well, I wish. Apparently, there has been a 'schism' in the Viqueens locker room about players not being on Brett's side but rather in the camp of Tarvaris Jackson or even Sage Rosenfels. Wow Brett, did you ever think it would come to this? My greatest enjoyment may have been picking up the new issue of Sports Illustrated. I invite you to carefully examine the upper-left hand corner. Until tomorrow...Adios Amigos.
