This is about familial relationships. "Controversial" is an odd descriptor. I get it that you are trying to make a joke, but I just dont get what it is.

Crean is deeply part of the MSU family, too.  I want to publicly thank Indiana for hiring him.  Lots of talk Crean would some day follow Izzo.  Nightmare avoided.

MSU has no succession plans.  I'm not impressed with their assistants--good assistants, not head coaching material, and I'm not sure some young "hot" coach is the way to go.  Too many MSU fans think things will just keep rolling once Izzo retires.  I don't see it happening.  MSU caught lightning a bottle with Izzo--it won't happen twice in a row.

But guys who spend that much time at work aren't good fathers.

If guys claim to be family first, then they can't spend 80+ hours per week at work away from family.

and EVERY family situation is different.

My father worked / travel a lot to provide a comfy life to our family.

I would have preffered him to be around more. . .

Because of this I chose to limit my career opportunities and sacrifice some traditional "standard of living" for some "quality of life" instead.

We'll see how it works.

Apparently some people believe that 8 hours of sleep is mandatory and a work day starts after 8 AM. I work at least 70 hours a week. I however never work between 5 PM and 10 PM and always take Sunday's off. Am I a bad father because I sacrifice sleep to make sure I have time for my children.

Happy Father's Day to all the MGoDads on the site and indeed dads in general.

As for the tweet, eh, as much as I can't stand Tom Crean and his habitual net theft, I wouldn't wish him anything less but the best on Father's Day.

As someone who has experienced both sides of the spectrum with my sister. One guy could build you a beautiful patio bbq in a day (master bricklayer) but was a pos person and the other has a hard time holding down a job but is a great stepdad to my niece and nephew. I will take the latter all day every day.

Speight with the shot from Pebble Beach.

 

My heart still aches at the tragedy of David Dawson's dad a few years ago.  I hope he finds peace and support from the M family.

I signed on to upvote the OP and was surprised to see so many downvotes. I'm sorry, but it's joke. If you can't see that. I chuckled. Don't get discouraged about being a wise ass, OP.
