Thirty years ago on this very day, February 23rd, Bobby Knight unleashed a torrent of foul language upon a referee, was issued a technical foul, then threw a chair across the floor in a tantrum for the ages.

Last Thursday on ESPN, some students standing in his way received quite a barrage of angry instruction from the 74 year old Knight, and thankfully all of the audio was loudly broadcast live on The Worldwide Leader.

He has always scared me. I remember watching that chair throw back when I was in Middle School and was terrified. Now, in his mid seventies, he still possesses enough raw anger to make me quiver in my boots. He wouldn't have to tell me twice to sit down, in fact I'd still be sitting there 5 days later.
