[spnited]

Interesting NYT piece on Obama's brother-in-law, head coach at Brown.
I remember covering him at Princeton in the early 80s.

Nice find.
My favorite quote...

“I’m so embarrassed to admit it,” [Craig] Robinson said. “I had a Porsche 944 Turbo. I had a BMW station wagon. Who gets a BMW station wagon? It’s the dumbest car in the world. Why would you buy a $75,000 station wagon?"

Who gets a BMW station wagon?
Someone who coaches basketball in the Ivy League, dude.

Trenton Times had a nice feature about him earlier this month or last month, however the story isn't showing up in the online archives.

BWM station wagon. Isn't that like a Rolex clock radio?
