Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
Wife here. I understand from this thread that most guys would prefer to have all the information at the onset of a convo (who/what are we talking about). Say the last part first yada yada. But FOR THE LOVE can you let me get a half sentence out before you interrupt with clarifying questions? Like, are your contextual listening skills so poor you literally cannot even listen to a single sentence without prior knowledge of the parties? I mean, that’s fine if you are really that limited in communication skills I guess, but let’s not act like I’m the lunatic here for not saying the list of characters in advance.

Recs for Southern California (around Orange County)
We found Porto’s in Buena Park and loved it. Went three times in six days (for breakfast, coffee, and lunch). The Cuban style black beans were so great—very authentic. The breakfast wrap was delicious. Carnitas, black beans, and guacamole with slow cooked scrambled eggs.

Do you even empirical research bro? Why would athletics be exempt from something so well documented in the corporate and education spheres? Again, I don’t even think it’s a necessarily bad thing. It is most definitely a thing.

All of those coaches scream obscenities in their players' faces and are surly with the media. That Pop is beloved is my exact point.

Then explain how you equate her behavior with that of Marshall and Knight. Wow it’s almost like I predicted there would not be a consensus about another male coach in her category.

Why don’t you say that she’s not as bad as knight and Marshall? Gregg Popovich, Kelvin Sampson, Tom Izzo—all act like jerks but it’s perceived as a benefit to their teams (and themselves by extension).

What on earth are you talking about? I’m so irritated you’re putting me in the position of defending one of my least favorite coaches. You’re equating Mulkey with bob knight who was verifiably abusive, throwing a chair on the court during a game, choking a player on video, and arrested for assaulting a peace officer and Gregg Marshall who also had multiple accusations of assault and racist verbal abuse. I have never heard anything remotely like that about Mulkey. You’re proving the point.

can’t really prove a negative, because there’s no consensus on which coaches are jerks. Name a male coach you think is a good guy. And how much women’s basketball are you actually watching to say that these guys “aren’t nearly as bad as Mulkey?”

Kim Mulkey to LSU
Comparing her to other tough female coaches like Staley and Summit does not address the claim of Mrs. [mention=2700]TreatyOak[/mention] which is: If Mulkey does the exact same thing as a male coach, it is perceived differently (and reflects more negatively) than if a male coach does it. She is violating cultural norms backed by empirical research. There’s actually much more of a disparity at lower levels and it’s actually one of the reasons why I stopped coaching my kids’ sports teams. Moms just cannot get away with what dads can. I don’t even think it’s a bad thing, necessarily. But it’s a fact.

May need to cross post on wives thread [emoji1787]- Kim Mulkey to LSU
Wow. Whole lot of nothing. I wonder how much the libel lawyer retainer was. She’s certainly not likable, but nothing out of the ordinary for coaches at the level. I am willing to admit a little sexism in that I think some of things I don’t like about her I would likely find less irritating in men. I’m surprised the article didn’t address that.- 2024 NCAA tournament survivor pool

Wellll there’s always more to the story. The day after this went viral, another post on Tyrone from an ex-girlfriend went viral in which he supposedly admits to domestic violence. Here’s his interview addressing it.- Kim Mulkey to LSU
Yep that’s exactly what I said/meant. [emoji1303]- Kim Mulkey to LSU
But the tone of voice AND the facial expression she used when she said “no comment” WAS aggressively hostile and shitty!!!!!!1 The official line was that the state department told them all not to comment.- Kim Mulkey to LSU
I have no idea. I don’t follow wbb, I’m basing that on reddits interpretation of this thread.- Kim Mulkey to LSU

I’m not a fan. I’m assuming she will be accused of abusive language. That being said, the consensus on what qualifies as abusive language has evolved significantly over her coaching career. Pretty this term has always qualified as abusive language though.- 2024 NCAA tournament survivor pool
