    Right? If he wants to coach then go coach some high school kids in your free time or something.

    I liked Brown when he came to Philly.

    Then it soon became a daily mess of the whiny "I don't know if I'll be back" BS. Grew to dislike him quickly.

    I think coaches live longer because of it. coaching kids keeps em young. pete carroll gonna live to be 100, Marv Levy looked the same for about 30 years. Who knows how old hubie brown is. i can't remember if wooden died yet, but he was up there too.

    Brown’s renowned wanderlust carried him to 15 coaching jobs in a five-decade career.

    Larry Brown is probably the greatest basketball coach since John Wooden.

    We talking bout practice?

    Not guy opinion on the subject I’d respect considering he wasn’t exactly a student of the game!

    Don’t get me wrong, loved AI, just don’t care what he thinks on this subject.

    I’ll stick w very good, not the best to do it.

    That true. There were a lot of solid players on that team, just no real stars.

    No Hall of Famers.

    I can't think of any other NBA championship teams that could say that.

    Hmmm.

    I've never been married so I don't know but I can't imagine being with the same person I like day in and day out for the rest of my life. I can't imagine how bad it would be to be married to a real cun* and have to spend every day with her.
