Sending Pitino Back To Brooklyn

fie

 Whattayou tawkin’ about? I only had fie’ vodkas!

______________________

Actually, Rick Pitino, disgraced coach of the Louisville Cardinals basketball team, was born in Manhattan and ended up going to high school at St. Dominic’s in Oyster Bay, Long Island (high cotton).  In other words, he’s not the gomatta (sic)- slinging gangster he’s made himself out to be these last ten years in Louisville, bulgy eyes and dark double-breasted suits aside.  He’s actually kind of soft to tell the truth.

How else can anyone explain a 31-point Cardinal loss to the crappy Providence Friars, a team from a city some claim is in Rhode  Island, which is allegedly a member of the Union wedged into New England somewhere.  Rumor is that the Friars are not named after the chicken tenders crew at Popeyes at all, but in fact a clerical sect known for celibacy, stinky beer and infrequent group bathing.  I’m awaiting confirmation and will get back to you when my investigators complete their report.

In any case, I’m tired of it.   In seeking some resolution, I’ve assembled a crew of recently released minor felons who will accost Rick at the Standiford Field Airport and bundle him into a black limousine headed for Bushwick, Brooklyn.   Upon arrival, Rick will be stripped down to his wife beater tee and skivvies and instructed not to return until he’s brought back a set of rabbit ear antennae from the local Robert P. Moses housing project.

Rick needs to get his “mojo” back, and  find that inner hard ass that will terrify these young men into perfoming on the hard court like a Pitino team of old.  I’m only doing what I can in the most exigent and dire of circumstances.

I will be looking to lighten up tomorrow on some of these positions that are up so far in this year.   The dollar is rebounding as I type, and while gold and silver are staying upright, I think they are due for a pullback and I will therefore trim accordingly.   I suggest you set tight stops on ANY green action tomorrow.  3-5%, tops.

My best to you.

    LOL… laughing my ass off at this freaking idiot Rick Perry trying to save his candidacy by attacking Romney with his retard’s definition of “vulture capitalism.”

    These idiots (and I include that vermin Gingrich here, who has zero scruples) will be scarred permanently by their attacks on the free markets.

    They show their true colors.

          This is why I wouldn’t trust Gingrich farther than I could throw him.

          Zero character. A complete scumbag.

          Perry is just a dumbass.

            A question, if I can:

            Perry is playing the “Romney fires people” card and is also saying, like the rest of them, that he is going to shrink the size of government.

            How the fuck does he plan to shrink the size of government without firing people?

    I’m voting for Huntsman in the Ma Primary … the only sane GOP candidate in the bunch.

      Not likely. The correlation is out of synch quite often, it’s just a question of the brevity of that non-correaltion.

        Lol, as long as the last day of discorrelation is of such a magnitude that the other days don’t matter…

    Please, keep Pitino in Brooklyn… Louisville or wherever. Just keep him as far away as possible from the Boston Celtics organization. Thank you and good luck.

    As an ex-coach of Providence, could he be a deep undercover double agent?

    Hopefully this game was us hitting rock bottom.

    Ive heard rumors from the courthouse that Russ, Siva and Ware all hate each other.

    Who cares about BE standings, look at UConn last season, they done went all the way

      I have a kids who works for me whose word I take as gospel in these things… he’s got a serious ear to the situation.

      He claims the players are on strike. They are sick of Pitino’s bullshit and they basically mailed it in to make a statement.

      Word is a lot of it is about the maltreatment of Russ. If that’s true, Pitino is phucked, because “the People” LOVE my boy Russ from Crooklyn.

          Yes, he would be AWESOME.

          And right up the road, too. And you know he’s seen the inside of the Yum! Center, so the envy seed has been planted in his nerdish little heart.

            You want a team quitting on its coach? Look at Pitt. 39 whole points at home against Rutgers and they already lost to Wagner this year. Pitt is toast. No NIT for them. Disasters in the BE this season. When was the last time Murray State was ranked ahead of Louisville? Unreal. And what is it with college basketball coaches and their tempers? Did you see Iowa’s coach slamming chairs on the court the other night? I don’t know that more yelling is the way to go about achieving results with these college kids. Doesn’t seem to work.

    Any serious trade offs in owning/residing/”playing” in Jeffersonville, IN viz Louisville Jake?

    There are investing reasons that lure me across the Ohio, but wonder if there are more material considerations sans personal inspection (as of yet)?

    Yes. Louisville is my interest.
