My Opinion? … I Like This Guy.

April 09, 2026

OK … a week ago I had never heard of “This Guy”.  Of course, the only current or recent NBA head coaches I “might” could name are Steve Kerr, Gregg Popovich and JJ Redick.  Those first two because they are hard-core, quite insane, obscenity screeching TrumpMAGA Haters … and JJ is, of course, “JJ”. 

The ONLY Charlotte Hornets Head Coach I can name would be “Dick Harter” and that was 25+ years ago.  Who forgets a name like Dick Harter?  I’d be hard pressed to name a dozen current NBA players much less coaches.  Hellfire, I can’t name three WNBA teams much less coaches or players (not named Catlin or Sophie).

Any opinions I might have – and will be sharing below – about Michael Malone (that IS his name, right?) have developed over the past three days.   

Coach Malone’s opinions about Donald Trump and MAGA guys like me … whether he (Malone) is mentioned in the Epstein files … Did he ever have a liason with a “sports journalist(?)” at a remote Arizona hide-away ala Mike Vrabel – YIKES! … Does he (Malone) “Hate Jews” … Does he think we “faked the moon landing … and 9/11 … and Kennedy’s Assassination … and COVID” … and, and, and …  and what is his opinion on con-trails and Candace Owens and barbeque – vinegar or tomato sauce? … Where O’ Where is Silent Sam? …… I don’t know ANY of that YET … but surely some pathetic no-life Franklin Street board monkey and/or some equally pathetic no-life Hated Rivals are deep diving the Dark Web to find out.  Sordid details should begin trickling out any minute now … 

FWIW: I also applaud NC State’s selection of alum Justin Gainey as the solution to their most unusual WTH with Will WhatsHisName.

Lets go with a bullet-points format, OK?

Babies, Guns, Jesus & Brandon Tate

….. After “Weak One” of ACC Football, Little Johnny Swofford has ordered the ACC media machine to “push Field Hockey” this Fall. Smart move Johnny. Two thoughts from Kenan Stadium (1) Why did Cocoa Puff cause that thunderstorm? …. (2) Sarah Palin coulda fixed that stoopid Jumbotron with her Leatherman tool. And more incredible insights from “amid the towering pines”..

Me & Simon Legree

… I’m duty bound to report on the Mile High Mardi Gras going on in Denver this week and obligated to do so in an unpredictable fashion …. I don’t mind agitating folks but I don’t want to be boring if I can help it. …. Somewhat related, I was invited to a fancy corporate shindig this week …. I had never met a single person there before, but actually I have met every one of’em many many times.

ACC Pigskin Preview ’08

BobLee cuts thru the yadda yadda from the street corner pundits and fuzzy-cheeked faux-experts to bring you all you need to know about ACC FB ’08. It’s late August. Dreams of bowl glory in December are as numerous as Obama yard signs in Carrboro. Alas, reality WILL bite. Disgruntled loons will form firecoach___.com websites as “sleeping giants” snooze. Who will be this year’s Missouri and Kansas? …. Read More McDuff. Read More.

A Cicadian Serenade UPDATE!

….. Vistas, chipmunks and pork belly to die for best characterize our recent Blue Ridge Getaway to Blowing Rock. …. To those of us born during Truman’s Administration, birthdays need to be more than just more presents to be appreciated….. Gideon Ridge Inn was the place. Me and Mizzus were the only guests with all our original knees and hips and yes….. It was a very fine time. UPDATED !!

…. my wife Nadia Comaneci

…. I vowed not to watch …. So shoot me, I’m watching. BobLee’s Olympic musings range from “why hasn’t Micheal Phelps ever seen an orthodontist (???)” to “does it get any better for a pedophile than Women’s Gymnastics?” Blame my Olympiphobia on our new 40” Sony HD flat screen. And. of course, BobLee has at least one obligatory Edwards slam.

Another Giant Vat of Moe-lasses!

…. You do recall our Okeefeenokee swamp boy and his asking for strength in the moment. …. I’m that swamp boy today ….. Did NBC actually interrupt The Olympics to ask Brett Favre about Apple Cheeks’ Sordid Affair? …. You all know today’s BIG STORY by now. …. You’ve come here for dessert. …. Hang loose, I might throw you a curve on this one!

The Truth Is Not Partisan

….. I’ve never done this before – turn over this column to the words of another man. …. Today I give you the August 3 words of N&O Executive Editor John Drescher…. I have supported John from the moment of his promotion to replace his disgraced predecessor. …. for John, like Erskine Bowles, is the rare American in 2008 who can rise above his partisan label to publicly speak The Truth. …. Rarer than hens’ teeth are such men.
