THOSE WHO thought Bob Knight
was mellowing at 67 should head over to The Dallas Morning News
website (www.dallasnews.com). In October the Texas Tech
basketball coach was twice accused of being part of dove hunting parties that fired pellets that hit bystanders. The paper snagged video of an encounter between Knight
and the second accuser, James Simpson, who claimed that shotgun pellets landed in his yard and hit him in the back. Simpson videotaped the argument, in which Knight
refuses to stop hunting so close to his house because—get this—Simpson cursed at Knight
instead of asking him nicely to stop shooting at him. Police say they won't file criminal charges, and Knight
said Simpson's assertion that the incident was intentional was "absolute [expletive]."
