This has nothing to do with the article except tocapture Coach Calhoun in all his badass glory.
You've probably already seen the interview. Ken Krayeske, a "freelance writer" (dude with a blog who takes himself too seriously), started taking shots about his $1.6 million salary. Keep in mind, this guy is a UConn student (and soon to be most shunned person in UConn history).
If you haven't seen the video, click here.
Jim Calhoun pretty much claims the title of "Most Justified Blowup by a Coach at a Press Conference". $1.6 million? That's a small cost for having one of the best known faces in college basketball bringing in millions of dollars to your school (and not just the athletic department, the entire university population).
Let's face it, being a Connecticut native, I know there's not a whole lot going on in the state worth shitting yourself over. For all that we totally suck at in Connecticut, we have one source of pride. College basketball. Sort've college football now that UConn's a decent team there, but they're still a ways away from being a powerhouse.
Anyway, the point is: Ken Krayeske is a douchebag. He to me is like Jonathan Papelbon, the San Diego Chargers, and the guy that does the Sham-Wow commercials rolled into one. He's a Green Party activist who's more busy trying to make a name for himself than tackling real issues. Case in point: Jim Calhoun makes $1.6 million. Connecticut is almost a billion in the red. That means that Jim Calhoun is approximately .0016% of the state's budget problem. Shouldn't the lawmakers who are now asking for Calhoun to be reprimanded for his comments be reprimanding themselves for being a good part of why our state is in this mess?
However, since our readership is approximately...5, I don't really need to take the high road and argue the logical issues behind Krayeske's various arguments (I took the time to read his blog and now I hate him even more). Therefore, I will leave you with this picture of Krayeske.
See what acting like a dick gets you, Ken Krayeske? That's right,your face on a completely unknown blog with the word "sphincter"
written on it. I hope you've learned your lesson.

James is back with a vengeance! Calhoun totally pimped slapped that dude. Just think, I almost went to UConn. That arrogant douche could have been me! Anyway, good to read your posts again. Oh, and fuck the Royals. That division is so up in the air right now, it's crazy.
