We just can’t let go of Bob Knight

Don’t ask us why, we can’t explain it. Bobby Knight is just days into his retirement, but we’re already feeling nostalgic for the Knight era. We’ve hated the cantankerous old fart for decades now, but suddenly it’s as if our best friend took our dog and split town with our old lady. Okay, so it’s not quite that bad, but if we had to equate our inner feelings to something it would be a scab – it’s irritating, it’s a nuisance, it’s annoying and it can be painful, but when it’s gone, you always find yourself feeling where it once was.

Yup, the General was pretty much a verbal Picasso.

Indiana’s tight end gets arrested for battery with a… water balloon?


Indiana tight end Blake Powers thought he was just heading out for a good time and a couple of laughs when he filled up a water balloon and took to the streets of Bloomington, Ind. Little did he know that his prank would get him thrown in the slammer after his target turned out to be an Indiana University police officer.

Powers was riding in a car when he decided to toss the H2O grenade out of the window and into the open window of the off-duty officer who was heading home for the day in his own vehicle. Turns out the soaked rent-a-cop didn’t find the joke to be all that funny and Powers was booked on a preliminary misdemeanor charge of battery on Monday night. He has since been released.

Geez, since when did everyone get so uptight over a little splash? Lighten up; sure it sucks to get all wet, but it’s just a lil’ water. Trust us, things could have been a whole lot worse. Just ask the lead singer of TRIVIUM.
