Funny Bruce Pearl Quote

[Got5onIt]

Thought this was hilarious quote by Bruce Pearl, UT basketball coach:

"I've got a tough job. I've got to put these guys from different worlds together, right? I've got guys from Chicago, Detroit ... I'm talking about the 'hood! And I've got guys from Grainger County, where they wear the hood.''

If any comedian said that it would be fine. I'm not saying coaches need to be comedians, but he shouldn't be getting this much flack about it.

I would be curious to see who is more upset, the citizens of Grainger County or the citizens of the hoods in Chicago/Detroit?

Given the fact most people in the South (or at least, most people I know) find KKK stereotypes to be quite embarrassing (and inaccurate), I'd assume the former.

Pearl's telling the truth (about both sides) and he should not to much flack about it. From what I heard the people from the inner city areas are not complaining. Usually if you throw a rock in a pack of dogs the one that got hit is the one that howls.
