Calhoun wasn't being a dick, he ewas being trapped by a grandstanding journalist, (the guy was a journalist), and he wasn't going to tolerate it. I'm glad Calhoun did what he did, I think that's ridiculous to bring up that Calhoun s the highest paid state employee and what he thinks of the economic crisis. Calhoun has nothing to do with it. That was completely fair game.

I will leave it up to Kirkland, Trainer, and all the other commies out there to explain Ken Krayeske's actions which were in poor taste and he was obviously grandstanding.

If Ken Krayeske "freelance journalist" writes a story for a newspaper (which are obviously struggling these days) and he was offered a sum of money would he then turn that money down to help out the newspaper? I don't think so because even dirtbags like him have to eat. Jim Calhoun may have come off a bit harsh but usually the norm in a POST GAME press conference is to talk about the GAME which has just been played or an upcoming game....to get infront of sports reporters and then not only insult the coach but insult the other reporters is tasteless and I would have had to have been restrained if I was there quite honestly.

Ken Krayeske is a sleezeball and I wouldn't mind if he died slowly and painfully

The liberal media is currently ignoring the government handing hundreds of billions in welfare to a handful of bankrupt bank shareholders. Some guy nobody's heard of (interrupting a sports interview? I haven't watched the video) is irrelevant to anything that's going on nationally.

Again,it isnt the dreaded "liberal media" its a Ucon student,you know the university where Calhoun coaches,who has a website.

Call it what you want but the guy was at a PRESS CONFERENCE.....you know an event that reporters go to and ask questions of someone.....some might call it a MEDIA EVENT some of which might even require a PRESS PASS and I am betting this would be one of those events

Lyle I hate to break it to you,but the notoriously non-liberal Wip 0610 Sports radio could probably tell you what John Cheney made every single year he coached at Temple. It wasnt exactly an unreasonable question from a student.
If Conneticut wasnt the absolute hinterlands for anything but college sports,everybody would have allready known what he makes
And just about any dope can get a press pass for a college coaches press conference if they can talk fast enough

OK so you are basing your argument on this guy Krayeske not being a member of the media? Maybe it is a reasonable question from a student but it was an improper time to ask it and Krayeske didn't take into account #1 the money that (men AND women's) basketball makes for the school and #2 If Jim Calhoun is making such great money then he's more than likely forking over a great deal of it to the State and Federal Government via taxes.

Kirkland you bring up a good point, I wonder why the LIBERAL MEDIA ignoring how the LIBERAL government is handing out billions in welfare to keep companies afloat

Your of course ignoring all of the capital gains tax cuts that the Bushies pushed through
Sorry,Reagan rhetoric doesnt work anymore,you got 8 years of everything you ever wanted,and now the economy is completely screwed. And every single time lazziez faire economics has been tromped out there,the economy ended up completely screwed. It hasnt worked once,not a single solitary time,but you guys just rename and repackage and we end up with another recession or depression or stock market collapse.Or usually both. How many times will you hit yourself in the head with a hammer before you realize its painful?

[El Kabong]

And every time some sorry ass liberal tries to get the government to fix things it only makes things worse.

They ignored trillions that Bush handed out in welfare, now they're doing the same to Obama. So they're equal opportunity enablers.

Apart from America's news channel that hosts ex-CIA and military people discussing war games and revolution against the Obama tyranny :

How fast did FDR's plan help out? Did Jimmy Carter's administration do well?

Do you not think highly of JFK's tax cuts

"Lower rates of taxation will stimulate economic activity and so raise the levels of personal and corporate income as to yield within a few years an increased – not a reduced – flow of revenues to the federal government."

What he was purposing was lowering income taxes,not capital gains taxes.
Do you research a damned thing you think you believe?
He was purposing lowering FICA taxes,the taxes that come out of working peoples paychecks before they can even cash them,not capital gains or estate taxes.
Honestly Lyle,look shit up before you post it.

Lets see an inherited depression from Hoover,an inherited recession from Nixon/Ford plus a gas crisis.
They fixed it about as fast as your side managed to completely fuck it up
And responding to a rebounding economy both Reagan and W,managed to completely fuck it up again.

[El Kabong]

Yeah just blame everything on the Republicans like always.....is it fun always playing the role of the victim?

You can live in your little fantasy world where you believe the New Deal actually worked and guys like LBJ and Jimmy Carter were great Presidents but didn't succeed because of a vast right wing conspiracy.

I think TM's taken this fight despite a strong start by Lyle, bring on the rematch!
