It really is all just filler around the real story of ripping Coach K. I wonder what the full story is behind the dislike.


He was once intellectually belittled by that Weber grad.

Isn't that itself enough?


Yes, Weber was for the Polacks that weren't good enough to play football at Gordon or who were too dumb to operate a table saw.


Weber was pretty good in my day.

Gordon, not so much

I think he was simply reminiscing about the cokehead rich boy he knew at Duke.

Wasn't it the thing where he lied about an ice cream social to swear at the J-school kids?

Anyway, I actually enjoyed this piece. It doesn't really have a point, no, but it's good let-it-wash-over-you writing.

I figured the kid from downstate transferred to a south-burb school. The kid from Ohio is obviously Dave Thomas's kid.

I think the downstate guy was Joe Cook. Not sure if he is related to Illini Brian.

Bernsy was originally a charter member of the Coach K ass licking society.

He's talking about at least 2 different people, possibly 3, depending on if he's using the typical Chicago definition of being "downstate" as being outside of a 3 mile radius of Navy Pier.

It's for sure Joe Cook from Lincoln. I followed IHSA and college hoops like a motherfucker in that era.

Dave Thomas's son. Wendy's is headquartered in Columbus and Google already autofills "dave thomas duke university" for you.

So far we've identified 4 people in the story. That's 1 more than even I thought.

Actually, I don't think it's Dave Thomss' son. I believe the way bernstein wrote it, Thomas was on the Duke board but bernstein's roommate was the son of the guy who was Wendy's CEO at the time.

I think the DUI center is Abdelnaby. Who is the HOF broadcaster? Seth Davis?

The other guy who came from Crete-Monee before Henderson and busted out I believe is named Weldon Williams. I dated a girl from C-M who was friends with him in high school.

No,, he's talking about a guy who was a player when he was there.

Bilas wasn't there after 1986. If its him then the story is a little suspect.

I can't figure the HOF guy. Seth Davis didn't play. He probably isn't a HOF broadcaster anyway. The coulmn seems to suggest the guy was an NBA player who now broadcasts and must be prominent.

Three Things I took away from this:

  1. A new and more improved appreciation for the career disillusionment that lawyers turned Artisanal craft brewmasters must experience. To their credit the byproduct truly tastes better.
  2. Borrowing and extending on the above, a character morph of Bernstein and Mike North is a screenplay that could be parlayed into a Mitch Albom status movie. "Afternoons with Terry -- Things I learned and forgot on the other end of an ISDN line."
  3. I have to wonder what a similar cloudy-hazey cruise down memory lane would be like the for many who came across this jilted Coach K taint-sniffer back in the dorms. Short, Jew-looking wigger, idolizing Chuck D while bogarting the joint. Too smart to be a sports agent but now happy to piss on any aspect of the world of sports that he once zealously embraced.

I now hold Jay Bilas in even higher esteem, Danny Ferry not-so-much.
