Worst Things To Come Out of a Coach's Mouth

Submitted by Blazefire on

If you saw this tidbit on UCLA earlier, you might have noted Coach Mora yelling not nice things at Josh Rosen.

However, if you're like me, you read that, and thought, "Well, apart from the four letter word that the paper obviously replaced with an ellipsis in there, that's actually pretty mild." I'd love to hear, from anyone who's been at a cfb practice or played the game at any level, what the worst things to come out of a coach's mouth you've hard are.

I never played, and I feel like Michigan fans probably get the better end of the stick, here. Bo and Lloyd could surely get angry, but I have trouble imaging either of them inventing a string of language that would hang over lake Michigan like black smoke, for instance.

You should have heard my coach when I dropped back in the pocket, felt pressure (that apparently didn't exist. Ooops), and decided not to hit the open seam route and tucked it to gain a reputable 4 yards.

Let's just say it was very NSFW, nor was it PC. I'm pretty sure it included the phrase "6'2 of twinkle-toed chickenshit."

your envelope pushing continues to amaze me.  You may be the Tarantino of the Board.  His Dudeness would have taken major flack for such a post just two short years ago.  You are a revolutionary.

I've dialed it back considerably.  Not many people share my sense of humor so I self-censor quite a bit.

But I do take that as a compliment.  Tarantino is an excellent director, foot fetish notwithstanding.

really early.  Resevoir Dogs was his best movie and actually, one of the best movies of all time.  I think things have slowly, but markedly, declined since then.(With a slight up tick for Death Proof).

For about the first 20 minutes of Basterds, I was saying 'that's totally unrealistic, that would never happen, the war wasn't like that', etc. Then I told myself it wasn't a WW2 movie, it was an absurdist Tarantino movie with a WW2 setting. After that I could appreciate it for what it was.

In poor taste.

If he was just some perv jacking off in the showers to kiddy magazines...laugh away, I think that's "pushing the envelope." It's sick and disgusting, but hey...if he goes to jail and no one is hurt, fuck it, laugh away - I'll probably join.

That's not what happened. This guy ruined lives forever. I can't laugh in a situation like that - there's plenty of other funny shit in the world. 

Even Marshall would agree that you don't make fun of ruined lives...right Marshall?

George Carlin relished the chance to get people to laugh at horrific things. I believe it to be very artistic. Even he didn't do his natural-disaster/high casualty bit after 9/11 happened, but he waited a handful of years and it was well-received when he did it. I think Sandusky is fair game when it's directed at him or PSU. It's not too soon anymore and fuck him and them.

MH... I've always enjoyed your posts...

but to say this is in poor taste is an understatement...

Here's the mendoza line for ya -- you protect those who cannot defend themselves. 

Pretty much everything else is fair game.

Being a young man who has sex with his mother does not disqualify him from being a great football player, provided he does not do it on the night before a game which would of course weaken his game performance.
