TFoA Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 I'm suprised nothin of Bob Knight's meltdowns got on this list. But other than that, "Diddly poo" is a statement I use to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter13 Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 I am sorry, but the Herm Edwards "We play to win" thing only made me think more highly of the man. So I voted for "diddly poo". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJTank Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Moras blow ups were great but McRae let the furniture fly if I recall oen reporter had a bloodied nose, the phone was pulled out of the hook, thats the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Cheney's outburst was the funniest one I've ever seen. I couldn't stop laughing seeing the guys try to hold hm back from lunging at Calipari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbman21 Posted January 9, 2005 Author Share Posted January 9, 2005 Well for Uncle Bob I couldnt really decide on one definite one....even though Edwards and Mora each have two.I guess they have 2 because those seem to get played so much that they were just in my conscience better.Knight's "Game Face" or "Chair Toss" are great though.Classics.I really wanted to put the Canucks GM's press conference from 2002.I would have done this but I couldnt remember his name.For our members who are not familiar with this,the Canucks were playing the Red Wings in the opening round of the NHL Playoffs when he spoke out about how just because Vancouver is not "Hockey Town",that doesnt mean the Wings could get away with mugging on the ice.I remembered Iverson's "Practice" but he's a player as is Winslow,as I also considered his.

clannhoran Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Didn't vote for any, because you're missing the most classic tirade of all. Lee Elia's Tirade MP3Summary: After fearlessly managing the Chicago Cubs to a 4-15 start in 1983, Elia has 456 words for the Wrigley Field fans ? and 43 of 'em are curses. Highlights: "They oughta go out and get a :censored:in' job and find out what it's like to go out and earn a :censored:in' living. Eighty-five percent of the :censored:in' world is working. The other 15 percent come out here." From Lee Elia, Chicago Cubs, Manager, in April, 1983 (before Wrigley Field had lights for night baseball), following a home loss to the Dodgers and in front of writers and microphones: :censored: those :censored:in' fans who come out here and say they're Cub fans that are supposed to be behind you, rippin' every :censored:in' thing you do. I'll tell you one :censored:in' thing, I hope we get :censored:in' hotter than :censored:, just to stuff it up them 3,000 :censored:in' people that show up every :censored:in' day, because if they're the real Chicago :censored:in' fans, they can kiss my :censored:in' ass right downtown and PRINT IT. They're really, really behind you around here...my :censored:in' ass. What the :censored: am I supposed to do, go out there and let my :censored:in' players get destroyed every day and be quiet about it? For the :censored:in' nickel-dime people who turn up? The mother:censored:ers don't even work. That's why they're out at the :censored:in' game. They oughta go out and get a :censored:in' job and find out what it's like to go out and earn a :censored:in' living. Eighty-five percent of the :censored:in' world is working. The other fifteen percent come out here. A :censored:in' playground for the cocks*ckers. Rip them mother:censored:ers. Rip them :censored:in' cocks*ckers like the :censored:in' players. We got guys bustin' their :censored:in' ass, and them :censored:in' people boo. And that's the Cubs? My :censored:in' ass. They talk about the great :censored:in' support the players get around here. I haven't see it this :censored:in' year. Everybody associated with this organization have been winners their whole :censored:in' life. Everybody. And the credit is not given in that respect. Alright, they don't show because we're 5 and 14...and unfortunately, that's the criteria of them dumb fifteen mother:censored:in' percent that come out to day baseball. The other eighty-five percent are earning a living. I tell you, it'll take more than a 5 and 12 or 5 and 14 to destroy the makeup of this club. I guarantee you that. There's some :censored:in' pros out there that wanna win. But you're stuck in a :censored:in' stigma of the :censored:in' Dodgers and the Phillies and the Cardinals an all that cheap :censored:. It's unbelievable. It really is. It's a disheartening :censored:in' situation that we're in right now. Anybody who was associated with the Cub organization four or five years ago that came back and sees the multitude of progress that's been made will understand that if they're baseball people, that 5 and 14 doesn't negate all that work. We got 143 :censored:in' games left. What I'm tryin' to say is don't rip them :censored:in' guys out there. Rip me. If you wanna rip somebody, rip my :censored:in' ass. But don't rip them :censored:in' guys 'cause they're givin' everything they can give. And right now they're tryin' to do more than God gave 'em, and that's why we make the simple mistakes. That's exactly why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Moras blow ups were great but McRae let the furniture fly if I recall oen reporter had a bloodied nose, the phone was pulled out of the hook, thats the best. I forgot, was the phone of the old, heavy, type?Jim Mora: "Playoffs? Don't talk about playoffs. Are you kidding me? Playoffs? I just hope we can win a game, another game."What made it funny was the way he said it. His facial expressions when he said that were hilarious!

Saintsfan Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I remember Mike Ditka having a couple of classics in the days when the bears were good. Can't remeber any specific incidents, but he was always on the UK tv coverage of Football ripping into someone or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sc49erfan15 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Wasn't really a meltdown, but I liked Coach Knight's "Game Face" speech."I've never understood the term 'game face'. What exactly is it?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eqtmgr Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I remember listening to the Diddly Poo rant in 96 after the SAints got thier asses handed to them by the Panthers. Jim Mora was the best coach in Saints history. Mahalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
