We’d like to offer our sincerest condolences to assholes, bullies, bitter curmudgeons, angry chair throwers, and all other people around the country who are morning the loss of former college basketball coach Bobby Knight.
Along those lines, I guess we should also offer mournful apologies to all Oklahoma sports radio listeners who have been waiting nearly three decades for Sports Animal shock jock Regular Jim Traber – not to be confused with Cardboard Jim Traber – to confront Coach Knight at a press conference.
Although the two were cut from the same cheesecloth, and both seemed to equally enjoy picking fights with coworkers, intimidating officials, and saying controversial things into a microphone, Regular Jim Traber has been a vocal critic of Coach Knight since he first mouth-breathed onto the local sports radio scene in the early 1990s.
