On the heels of the Mike Gundy post, let's keep with the theme of coaches going ape-shit. Former volitile Baltimore Orioles manager Earl Weaver let's fly for this radio intervew several years back, which was taped to be aired but obviously never did. This puts anything Jim Mora ever said after a game to shame. (And as funny as "Playoffs?" was, him saying "we couldn't do didily poo" as coach of the Saints was even better, but for whatever reason not as heralded.) This interview without a doubt is the funniest coach blow-up ever, but perhaps because Weaver was a public figure before the ESPN big media age and retired prior to it, it's flown largely under the radar. If you listen closely, and I've listened about 1,000 times, it may be that Earl was having a little fun with the host knowing the interview was not live. Not that that possibility takes away from it's cache. Enjoy.
