She was three minutes early, and again, she was not holding up the show.

This entire thread was posted to outline her comment, when in fact he started the exchange and it should never have happened. If anything, he needs to shut his mouth and not be concerned with one reporter showing up late to his glamour shots.
Guess what guys, she doesn?t work for him. He can take his lame ass joke and shove it especially if the retort is going to piss some people off.

One more thought I had on this... While there's equitable "blame" to go around, it's not like BK has any "good will" built up with that cult. Dey payin' him $10M a year to have a more disciplined (stupid penalities), more fundamentally sound (2 muffed punts, 2 blocked kicks, etc), better performing team than that, IMO.
While the game was wildly entertaining, it was like 2 monkeys trying to hump a football... almost like neither wanted to win.
Pretty good assessment on all accountsQuote:

He didn't have to be an entitled douche, though. He gets paid 10 mil to coach a game....he's not the President. And you're right that she didn't "have" to escalate with her quip...but I probably wouldn't have taken the chiding either.Quote:

That's true. But he started it. And he has no built up good will with the media or that fanbase right now. He came across as a pompous jerk.Quote:

3. It was extremely unprofessional on her part, and I stand by my initial assessment of today's media members.
Either way, try to start some shit from a perceived position of power, and don't be surprised when the target of your bullshit quip turns it back on you and goes for the jugular, especially when you didn't do your job on Sunday. I remember the saying, He without sin, cast the first stone. Before Kelly opens his mouth again, he better have his house in order. Good for her. She isn't there to take his shit.
Now, all involved have apologized and moved on, except for this one thread on an unrelated university board.
I would be 100% on board with him saying after he wins this week during the sideline after the game discussion, "I (Kelly) expect all media personnel to be ontime for the press conference on Tuesday." Now that would be funny, but he won't because he knows he is going to lose the next week to MSU.
Well you act like a "Bud". Call them how I see them.
Good enough for me.Quote:

It would be extremely tone deaf of BK to prison rape Southern U and say something like that. But, I can see it happening.Quote:

If he's that tone deaf he's gonna get eaten alive in Baton Rouge. It ain't South Bend.
