Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Bob Knight is gone and none of the other dreary coaches out there is worth a quarter of a column. Admit it: Knight was worth the price of admission. When a reporter asked him his best, most thought-out question, Knight called him stupid. When Indiana lost, he stomped and cursed. Your writers loved it. The keyboards clicked so fast they caused smoke alarms to go off in your office.

So it’s goodbye to the General. The last of the alpha males is history. And bad news for you boys at Tribune sports. Now you have to come up with interesting copy on your own.
