| Mike Gundy of Okie State
Holy Cow. One of the all time great tirades. Totally blasting the local paper for a critical article about his QB.
Man, you just don't see stuff of that quality often....
I don't know my way around youtube, but it's got to be there.. |

| It pains me to say anything good about the boys from Stoolwater. However, Mike Gundy is now one of my heroes. That's how the media should be treated. | |

| An oldie but a goodie. Lee Elia rant... Quote:
The article I referenced in my previous post mentioned Lee Elia and his famous rant while he was a manager with the Cubs.
Elia was not a very successful manager. Overall, he was 238-300 with the Cubs and Phillies. But mention his name to any Cub fan and without a doubt, his rant will come up. Among my baseball friends, he has been raised to an hero/anti-hero status for his chat with the media on April 29, 1983.
On that day, the Cubs suffered a one-run loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers giving them a record of 5-14 for the season. The Wrigley crowd had been especially hard on the team, booing and heckling them throughout the game.
To see the mainstream media print his rant is laughable because every other word is censored.
Before I link the audio, let me say on the outset that this is definitely not safe for work, kids or anyone sensitive to harsh language.

| Media circling the wagons... ESPN - Okla. State's Gundy stands by postgame rant - College Football Quote:
Football Writers Association of America president Mike Griffith issued a statement about the incident.
"I consider Coach Gundy's behavior completely inappropriate. It shows a lack of respect for the media and doesn't speak well for the university and the fans that he represents. Coach Gundy's actions have brought national attention and further scrutiny to the situation that could have been handled in a more private and appropriate matter."
| Surely... certainly, this isn't the same Mike Griffith of KNS.

| If the writer didn't get his facts straight, he deserves to get reamed out.
