On Sunday San Francisco 49ers head coach Mike Singletary, in his first post game press conference mind you, went off on his young, underachieving tight end Vernon Davis, who quite frankly has been playing like his tail end is very tight.
Now of course Singletary is not the first coach to lose his composure during a post game press conference. We all remember the classics, Jim Mora (Playoffs?!?) and Herm Edwards (You play to win the game), but last year, Mike Gundy, the head football coach at Oklahoma State University, gave us some of the most memorable quotes of all time.
"That's why I don't read the newspaper, because it's garbage. And the editor that let it come out is garbage."
"Come after me. I'm a man. I'm 40."
This tirade is almost too good. I love how he's staring at the female reporter that wrote this article the entire time.
The previous year the Arizona Cardinals had just blown a huge second half lead to the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football and Coach Dennis Green wasn't happy about it.
"If you wanna crown 'em, then crown their asses"
Now I'm partial to this next one because of my illustrious intramural career. Dan Hawkins, the head football coach at the University of Colorado, explodes in regards to a letter that he got from a parent. I wish the video was out there somewhere because I'm sure his facial expressions make his words that much better.
"It's Division 1 football"
This last one is obviously my favorite because it was delivered by none other than Jim Boeheim, the head coach of the Syracuse University men's basketball program. How can you not love that face?
