...Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes...

He's still scum. Said in the hockey, "they still suck",tone.
December 25th, 2018 at 7:31 PM ^
He will do fine. They actually allow paying players in that league.
December 25th, 2018 at 7:41 PM ^
....but what about the Hookers and Blow???
December 25th, 2018 at 9:27 PM ^
Hookers are also legal in Greece. Not the blow though.
December 25th, 2018 at 7:53 PM ^
Well then he won't have a talent advantage, so he will have to rely on his coaching...
December 25th, 2018 at 11:44 PM ^
I thought Pitino was taking time off to spend time with his family and focus on his health. . .
December 26th, 2018 at 7:47 AM ^
Isn't that what Meyer was supposed to do after he left that Florida program in shambles?
December 26th, 2018 at 10:54 AM ^
Yep. Probably should have made it more clear, as that was the joke. Both put their programs under a cloud, both left their programs, both jumped at the first chance to coach again, leaving the old programs to deal with any aftermath.
December 26th, 2018 at 12:34 AM ^
Which at one time he was good at. Probably still is. That's what sucks about cheaters/people who take the low route/etc., it doesn't mean they weren't quite good at what they did/do but when they go a certain route at some point it becomes distasteful and people lose respect.
December 25th, 2018 at 7:39 PM ^
anyone else see the response saying their cousins died of a marijuana overdose? Is that possible ?
December 25th, 2018 at 8:27 PM ^
Unless that marijuana was laced with something or poisoned, it’s almost physically impossible to overdose on marijuana. You would have to smoke 1500 lbs of marijuana within 15 minutes to OD.
So yeah....that’s impossible.
December 25th, 2018 at 8:37 PM ^
I call mularkey. I once smoked 1700 lbs in 17 minutes and here I am
December 25th, 2018 at 9:36 PM ^
Obviously he was talking about the LD50 for a 75 kg person
December 25th, 2018 at 10:52 PM ^
1000s of people a year die from smoking weed,every year .I cant believe some people actually believe this "drug" is totally harmless
more than 23,000 people have died from weed in Sweden since 1993..this is one country
Id bet 1/2 the times someone smokes pot,they have a moment where they take in too much and have a hard time breathing for a second and start to cough .Think of how many times this stopped someones heart (its happened a lot)
People thinking that weed is harmless. is one of the weirdest things i can think of .
https://www.statista.com/statistics/470833/drug-poisoning-deaths-cannabis-in-england-and-wales/
Cannabis is the 6th "most over dosed" drug in USA

https://www.unodc.org/wdr2017/field/WDR_2017_presentation_lauch_version.pdf
The two largest "inhibitors" in fatal accidents (where drugs were found) are Weed and Alcohol ,sure they are mixed often or weed is found with other drugs,but its still the 2nd largest drug found, in deaths in those areas
December 26th, 2018 at 12:38 AM ^
Omg
I'm only going to address the coughing portion...so you're saying this very hypothetical person could've died from heart issues if they swallowed their own saliva wrong and equating that to how marijuana is underrated as a cause of death?
December 26th, 2018 at 7:04 AM ^
I especially like attributing 'weed and alcohol' to overdosing on weed. Lol dafuq?
December 26th, 2018 at 12:00 PM ^
Lot's of pretty pictures in your posts... And we see that there were 29 deaths related to Cannabis in England and Wales.. now that's an big number.. right... or perhaps.. not.. since there were 533,253 deaths registered in England and Wales in 2017, a 1.6% increase from 2016 and the highest annual number of death registrations since 2003. With increases in both the size and age of the population, the number of deaths is expected to increase.
Link to that data in a tiny url: https://tinyurl.com/ybxfgpak
So quick math here... 29/533,253 is 0054%. OMG!!!!! IT'S AN EPIDEMIC!
And nothing in any of your provided pretty pictures talks about overdosing... so while I'm not an expert in medicine I do data analytics for my job. And I call BS on your provided "facts" so please try again!
December 26th, 2018 at 7:59 AM ^
It is not possible for the human body to overdose and die from just marijuana. Chemically not possible. It is possible for someone to get high and do something stupid. It is also possible that weed could be laced with something. However you can not physically smoke enough weed to overdose and die.
December 26th, 2018 at 10:43 AM ^
"It is possible for someone to get high and do something stupid."
Duuuuuude...'probable' is the word you were looking for!
December 25th, 2018 at 7:46 PM ^
dude is definitely on the naughty list. coal for him.
December 25th, 2018 at 7:58 PM ^
Don't even have the check the list twice! He's on it for sure!
December 25th, 2018 at 8:11 PM ^
I hear the waitresses are pretty hot there.
December 25th, 2018 at 8:32 PM ^
Greek women are hot as hell, but they're also emotional as hell too. He will fit in perfectly over there.
He is still a scumbag. I was hoping he was going to take Meyer's Leadership and Ethics class.
December 25th, 2018 at 8:55 PM ^
Guest lecturer for sure!
December 25th, 2018 at 9:09 PM ^
So... not too different from the Italian women he probably knows and grew up with.
December 25th, 2018 at 8:44 PM ^
....Tiger wants to know if they have any Perkins over there???
December 25th, 2018 at 8:13 PM ^
Well it's in Greece, so...he'll fit right in.
December 25th, 2018 at 9:41 PM ^
Hey-yo!
December 25th, 2018 at 8:19 PM ^
So he has moved on to smashing* plates in Greek restaurants now ? Opa!
December 25th, 2018 at 8:44 PM ^
I heard he only takes a few seconds per smashing*
December 25th, 2018 at 8:33 PM ^
Wow, Beilein didn't just kick him out of college basketball. He kicked the dude out of the fucking CONTINENT
December 25th, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
The guy just loves the game.
December 25th, 2018 at 10:02 PM ^
I think you mean a different type of game
December 25th, 2018 at 9:21 PM ^
Hey, at least he'll be closer to Transylvania.
Though I'm not sure if they'd let a criminal sex vampire in the country.
December 25th, 2018 at 9:52 PM ^
Pitino got railroaded. He didn't need to engage in any unethical activities. It's all about resentment for his success.
December 25th, 2018 at 9:58 PM ^
Pitino’s first stop was the red light district, where he channeled his inner “Booger”,”We’ve got bush.”
December 25th, 2018 at 10:13 PM ^
alert all restaurants in the surrounding areas.
December 25th, 2018 at 10:26 PM ^
Shouldn't he be in prison?
December 26th, 2018 at 1:38 AM ^
Does Rick Pitino have a massive student loan or something? Is that why he continues to coach?
December 26th, 2018 at 7:32 AM ^
"Congrats! All the strippers and souvlaki you can handle in Greece"
December 26th, 2018 at 7:48 AM ^
Now there's a guy who hates his wife.
December 26th, 2018 at 8:27 AM ^
Malaka.
December 26th, 2018 at 11:33 AM ^
It's the Devil's Advocate II
Satan takes Greece
December 26th, 2018 at 5:03 PM ^
This is a head-coaching position?
