It kind of bothers me whenever a coach addresses the press as “you guys”. As in, “You guys started this rumor about me …” Would it be fair if I asked Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo why “you guys” throw chairs during Big Ten games?
But this is an exception, because it generated a pretty amusing quote. Friday’s press conference with Tom Thibodeau, where he addressed the rumors of his demise as Chicago Bulls’ head coach:
“I’m not going to comment on rumors you guys start, and then you wait for me to respond.
“Obviously I have a lot of respect for what Doc does say, but every day there is something else going on. Now the rumor about my date with Kate Upton, a rumor started by me, I’m not commenting on that either.”
And now, 57 of Kate Upton’s “sexiest moments”, among them photos from her recent Vogue shoot (some football related).
