Think about when RC was hired and what , IMO RC was hired to do, be the hatchet man for Larry Finch. Maybe Bowen is the hatchet man here and laying the ground work for what the money people really want to do. Alan Graf hasn't been to too many games this year. Thoughts?

The episode from the last couple games was a planned event
They're trying to get the players riled up to go into knoxville and blow the vols out of the building
They're trying to make the fans rabid
They will capitalize on the intense environment.

Seems a little more like the idiot guy than the bad guy.

So, have you been looking in the suite ?

Another Bowen is the bad guy thread.

I am with you. He might just be full of himself and over his head.

I don't really see the resemblance:

Is it against the law to look in the suite? What about his court side seats. Can we look at those

myopic, yes...

I'm sure top management in a multi-billion dollar global giant have some other priorities and the schedule as we all can
mostly agree on has not been delicious. 2+2

Posing a querry to something you already know the answer to is not asking a question. I think you were trying to make a point tho I fail to see what it was. Perhaps you could enlighten us. You should not attempt to bandy words with Miss J. You are in way over your head.

Bowen was hired to clean up a mess and make football relevant. Looks to me like he is doing just that.

+1. Agreed. Everyone chill - don't believe the hype that this was a major rift. Sports talk gotta fill up the hours & the pages; this was excellent fodder and so many have bought into it. Pastner, Bowen and the rest of the gang don't have to tickle fight one another to get past any misunderstandings. They are grown men, people. They don't have to be the best of friends to get the job done. And it seems to me like everyone is improving (although basketball seems to be lagging from where we all think it "should" be - not sure if that's fair or not, but seems to be the reality of the situation). Now let's enjoy kicking the crap out of Ew Tee.

I'm not calling Tom Bowen the bad guy until he starts calling Shirley Raines his "little friend."
