Clips with Coach: THE CHOPPING BLOCK

Editor’s Note: This week’s Clips with Coach should be taken with serious authority, as it’s written by a man with vast experience on the topic. Just kidding, Dad. No, but seriously.

March is fast approaching, and as the Top 4 teams all went down last week, some coaches are playing for their jobs.

While the powerhouses – Texas, Kansas, Ohio State, Pitt and Duke – are worrying about being #1 seeds come Tournament time, some coaches are simply worrying about being employed. The Wyoming and Stetson jobs are already open, while there are a handful of others on the “Coaching Bubble.”

The most obvious “Man Out” would seem to be Pat Kennedy at Towson. Winless in the CAA so far this year, he has done nothing in his time at the school. With a new AD in place for the Tigers, his first big hire has got to be someone who will dig in and work hard to make them competitive in a very tough conference.

Things Kanye West Shouldn’t Be Invited To

I love Kanye West. I think the guy is absolutely bonkers and it’s entertaining as hell. He’s wacky and I adore it. But while this brand of crazy is suitable for many affairs, i.e. the MTV Video Music Awards, the NBA All-Star game, Super Sweet 16s, concerts at Boston College during my senior year, and (fingers crossed) my child’s first birthday party, there are definitely things he should not be invited to. Considering this, first on my list would be the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. However, Yeezy has reportedly procured himself an invitation. I can picture it now…

100 Days Til RJ and Nicole’s Wedding: Things Just Got Serious

So as I’m sure you remember from the end of last year, there are approximately 1 bigillion weddings going on. And I successfully attempted to lose weight for all of them between August and December. However, we’ve been on a reprieve from weddings over the past few months, and unfortunately, some of those pounds came back.

If you take a look over to the right side of the screen (over there…over there) you’ll see that there are 100 days until Arge and Nik tie the knot (Memorial Day weekend, on Long Island…it’s a New York wedding people!), and I have every intention of losing 10 pounds in those 100 days. Since I practically forced them under penalty of death to go skydiving with me this summer, I figure I should at least look presentable when I do a reading/break out into an original song and dance number during their ceremony. It’s happening.

So it’s back to Zumba, Yoga, and possibly once-a-week Chipotle for this girl. Ugh. I might actually have to go grocery shopping for the first time in 2011. Losing weight is a pain in the (smaller) ass. Check back next week for my first weigh in results – and don’t hesitate to send some love along. Good luck to me!
