    I thought this was hysterical, and I don't always like stuff like this.

    That interview was so short, it could have been done live from Porcini's.

    Classless and unprofessional. I'm just not impressed by jockeys who show up a guest.

    Really dumb. And good luck to them getting other guests.

    Yeah, Toucher and Rich (sometimes good) have douche qualities to them. They weren't around back when Pitino was here; don't know why they'd be so "offended."

    Oh, that's right, it's a bit. And a bad one at that.

    Another +1. Especially since Pitino has owned up to being a disaster with the Celtics, and as a pro coach in general. These clowns probably could've gotten him to admit he stunk and ruined the Celtics without much prompting.

    Pitino won 52 games in his second season in New York, back when winning more than 50 games in the NBA meant something. Sure, Boston was a Dumpster fire of Lane Kiffin proportions, and that had as much to do with his personnel decisions as his coaching. He was not an abject failure in the NBA, though.

    What does this even mean? Did they play less than 82 games back when Rick Pitino was coaching the Knicks? Has the NBA started awarding free wins to teams to get them over the 50 win mark? Did NBA teams get byes in the playoffs for winning more than 50 games?

    Typical fratboy-dipshit unrepentant-jackoff sports radio schtick.

    Fail.

    Pitino himself is a douche for well-documented reasons but this was bullshit.

    You got him on the line, ask him, "hey, why did things go down the toilet with you and the Celtics?"

    Put the ball in his court; either he has to "deny, explain or admit."

    Jerks. People who run radio stations should be held accountable for this nonsense.
