Some people are just natural enemies: Crips and Bloods, Coke and Pepsi, Hillary Duff and Lindsay Lohan. But perhaps no contentious relationship has produced more humorous moments than that of athletes and the media. In today's links, YouTube provides us with some of the all-time best. Talking 'bout practice: Long before Larry Brown's debacle in New York and long-running feud with Starburry, there was The Answer. And of all their issues, none resulted in a greater display of comedy than practice! Playoffs? Playoffs?: Sadly, YouTube doesn't seem to have any footage of Jim Mora's famed "Diddly Poo" press conference, so this'll have to suffice. You know, I've covered Jim Mora, Jr., and he isn't half as interesting as his dad. I guess the comedy gene skips a generation. We'll miss ya, John: Something about this rumble reminds me of the scene in "Dazed in Confused" where the nerdy guy goes into the fight assuming someone will break it up, because otherwise this would have been a very short brawl. Don't stutter: In the most recent example of an utterly absurd jab at the media by a head coach, Avery Johnson shows the sort of demanding personality that's made him so successful. Say Chris again!: Don't get me wrong, I hate Jim Rome, but this was CLASSIC. I could watch it 100 times and not get bored. Everybody loves the General: And the number one reason not to become a sportscaster: Bobby Knight. Fade into Bolivia: Comedy, thy name is Iron Mike Tyson.
