CBS sportswriter Mike Freeman (an infamous John Cailpari hater) compiled a sports jerk list. And wouldn't ya know it he has coach Cal ranked #35 on the list. What was his explanation? And I quote "Needs no explanation". Pardon me Mr. Freeman but yes it does needs explaining. I'm not really sure you would put him on the jerks list. Was it the $1 million dollars that he raised for the earthquake victims in Haiti? Was it because of the numerous charitable organizations that he funds in Memphis and in Lexington?
Of course not! It's because of his alleged transgressions, all of which he has been cleared of by the NCAA. And also maybe because of the great success that he is having at UK.
Now, on to Ricky P. He is listed one (only one!) spot ahead of John Caliapri at #34. His explanation for Sticky Ricky? And I quote "Too easy". I am going to correct you on this one as well Mr. Freeman. It was Karen Sypher that was too easy. Pitino was too dumb, too arrogant and too "quick on the draw" if you know what I mean. And I think you do. So here is to you Rick Pitino. Your team will not be ranked above Cal's and your next two recruiting classes will not be either. But at least you beat him in this category. The jerk store called and they are running out of you.
Notable mentions: Ron Artest (them's fightin' words. You don't mess with Ron-Ron), Mike Tyson, Nick Saban, Kobe Bryant, Barry Bonds, Randy Moss, Bobby Knight, Tiger Woods, Mike Vick and #1 was Brett Favre. Read the entire list here.
