Indiana is the home of basketball, which is why we're flat ignoring the NBA Finals. The "classic matchup" of Kobe Bryant's Lakers and the mercenary Celtics isn't doing it for me any more than the rest of the NBA season did.

Cell phone etiquette: we've mostly nailed it down. Don't talk while driving. Don't text during class. Don't clean your ear with the antenna. Bob Knight probably treats cell phone like the 3-point...
Matt " Bam Bam " Barber, one of the "like-minded men with Concerned Women for America," has decided to leave one of the curiously estrogen-free posts at the organization, policy director for cultural issues (homo-obsessive Bob Knight was the director of its Culture and Family Institute).

After 15 games as Texas Tech's head coach and a few months of perspective since the end of the season, Pat Knight is putting his unique (and un-Bob-Knight-like) mark on the program, writes Tim Griffin.
Knight attended Ohio State and was a member of the Buckeye team that won the NCAA championship in 1960. After graduating with a degree in history and government, Knight was an assistant coach at Cuyahoga Falls (Ohio) High School for one year before entering the U.S. Army.

Damon Bailey received his first recruiting letter (from Syracuse) as a seventh-grader. The following year then-Indiana coach Bob Knight made him the poster child for premature hype by saying the eighth grader was better than any Indiana guard (see the book "Season on the Brink").
The defense of homophobic violence that started with an article by Ted Pike on David Duke’s virulently racist and anti-Semitic website has now been taken by Peter LaBarbera to his fellow anti-gays: Concerned Women for America (CWA)’s Matt Barber, and Bob Knight of the Culture and Media Institute. Bob Knight and Peter LaBarbera are old friends [...]
So we’ve already established that the Mavericks fired coach Avery Johnson in the wake of their first round playoff exit. I always say you have to see what's out there first before you move on, but perhaps this is best for both parties. Now the question for Dallas becomes who do they hire? [...]
