    If it's not broken, abort it and make it better.

    Haha, where's Tyche?

    I'm sure you've all heard about Rick Pitino in the news this past week but I wanted to post it here to see what everyone had to say about it.

    Pitino apologizes, vows to stay 'as long as they'll have me' - USATODAY.com

    Louisville men's basketball coach Rick Pitino apologized Wednesday after details emerged about his 2003 sexual encounter with a woman charged with trying to extort $10 million from him.

    Speaking without notes for nearly five minutes and without taking questions, Pitino, married and father of five, apologized to his family, school officials, players and fans in a hastily arranged appearance on campus.

    "I let them down with my indiscretion six years ago, and I'm sorry for that," he said.

    In an interview last month with police Pitino, 56, said he had consensual sex with Karen Sypher in a Louisville restaurant after hours and denied allegations he raped her. The Courier-Journal of Louisville obtained a summary of the police interview through the state's Open Records Act.

    A few weeks later, according to the report, Sypher told Pitino she was pregnant and planned to have an abortion but didn't have health insurance. Pitino, after asking about the cost, gave her $3,000, the report said.

    The Boston sports radio jocks have been having a field day with this one. Pitino is not very well liked up here.

    A lot of people care about that, actually.

    The only reason this is a story is because the word "abortion" was incorrectly thrown around. Break this story down, and it's not bad. The guy cheated on his wife. Egregious, but he's been up front with his family about it. Lady got pregnant, so he paid for her to have health insurance. The woman tried to extort 10 million dollars out of him by blackmailing him. Other than cheating on his wife, and possibly the most disgusting thing; having sex in a public restaurant, Pitino did everything right. In a poll in the Louisville press, something like 47% of people think he should be fired. There's a hell of a lot of UK fans in Louisville. Get the fuck over it, it's not a big deal. Dissect the lives of lots of rich, high profile people, you're going to find skeletons.

    He didn't "pay the woman off". That's the reason the dumb bitch is going to prison.

    Derp, I'm a moron. Disregard me, I suck cocks. I misread the paying for the abortion as paying her off.

    Still though, doesn't detract from him being a douche bag.
