    But I thought that the firing of the old coach was a perfect example of the PC world gone amok and how modern college students couldn't put up with good old school male discipline!?!

    What happened?!?????!!

    Discipline is important and all but what is one trait that Pete prizes above all else in coaches: the ability to relate well to the players. This is just a hunch, but I'm guessing Coach Yaz related to a 21 year old women just a bit better than the previous coach.

    This thread is useless without pics.

    And it doesn't even matter whose - as long as they have shapely hooters and pooters

    Firing the HOF coach midseason because he hurt some feelings was PC bullshit.

    Hiring the kickass replacement was kickass.

    Abundance.

    So the new head coach actually kicked the coxswain off the team that had previously led the mid season, hurt feelings revolt against the old head coach. If that's no abundance I don't know what is. Alas, we are no longer sexist and now a school that cares about BOTH men's and women's rowing.

    Because those brave young women from Yale ran naked into the administration office, women's crew is an NCAA sport. Since no male rowers wanted to streak, men's crew is not an NCAA sport.

    Seriously.

    Wow I searched for some pics or something and stumbled upon the lamest article I've ever read.

    I skimmed through the thing to see if she ever actually wrote about the naked part and stumbled upon this gem



    “This is our equipment. Not for girls.” The voice was closer now, as the men’s crew captain stalked toward our lifting station, hands balling into fists.

    “Oh,” Chris stared him down, standing taller than him even though she was a foot shorter. “I see, boys. So you must pay more tuition than we do, right?”

    No one moved for a long moment. Veins protruded from the captain’s neck.
