    The Tennessee athletic program is as fucked in the past 24 or so months as any I've ever seen. Just hit, after hit, after hit.

    What is with the ridiculous addiction comparisons that are essentially bragging? I don't doubt Ainge's troubles, but I'd have more sympathy without the stupid, cheesy metaphor.
