Yeah, BITB is thrown around a lot, but I like Charles Barkley doing what he does better than pretty much anyone else that does that.  Brutally honest.  Doesn't seem to deal as heavily in media story talking points. 

He's great and entertaining.

I think he could have made it really BITB if he went right for white guys perspective on being a pg.  He also needs to work on his delivery, definitely needs some pro tips from Sir Charles.

Doesn't matter.  I think Doug will be coaching in a few seasons.  He went after us.  He made a partial ref on twitter about wanting the UCLA job.  I think he is on the fence about making the switch.  Probs wants to do it but probs doesn't want a Texas State job to start.

Any area of someone's life is improved by taking advice from Sir Charles.

He is just a fascinating personality.

Mrs PC96 and I enjoy the heck out of all of his March Madness commercials.

I like Greg Anthony too. I don't like Kenny doing college basketball, he like Greg has a tone of taking things too seriously, the difference is that Kenny doesn't know college basketball like Greg does. I don't get the sense that Kenny does any prep before selection sunday.

I like that Doug appears to know what he’s talking about.

I like that Charles appears to not know what he’s talking about but doesn’t present it as if he does; he simply just talks about what he saw – if he thinks it sucks, he’ll say it and I like that.

Q: How does Doug know everything about everything basketball-related?
Title: Re: Doug Gottlieb makes things awkward
Post by: MakeItRain on March 29, 2013, 10:43:17 AM
I'm guessing he spends the winter doing nothing but hanging with the fam, talking to coaches, and watching video.

yeah. i also think kenny is too concerned with wanting to make sure that people don't think he is just a stupid athlete or something. like my god man just chill out. nobody is out to get you. it's like every time i see kenny it's like he's acting as if he's meeting his girlfriends parents for the first time or something.

Man thats perfect. He should just watch more games, possibly shadow Doug during Championship Week.

i like the nba guys talking about college bball.  it's funny to hear them say stuff from a different perspective and sometimes walk all over accepted talking points that they don't know exist.

i also like it that you can see their contempt for college bball.  not so much anthony, but you can tell barkley and kenny think they're being forced to analyze jr. high games or dogs playing catch or something.

Why won't Gottlieb be an assistant somewhere first? I bet when people saw the recruits he was pulling, someone would hire him as HC pretty quickly.

He would have to really want to do coaching to take less than a major job.  With networks handing out big contract to former ESPN personalities, he is probably doing pretty well.  That said, would be shocked if a major job would take that risk.

I think Doug said on Petro last year that he'd love to get into coaching, but it had to be the right job in terms of fit and salary.  He said that he couldn't just take any job because his family is accustomed to living a certain lifestyle based on his ESPN salary, and he's not willing to move down from that.

So, after the CBS move, I think he priced himself out of a ton of jobs if that's really a criteria for him.

And I agree with ChiCat that I don't think many, if any, high majors would take a risk on him for the money he'd ask for.

Beems do you ever sit back and think about how far you've come?  I don't think old school bmwjhawk (right?) would have even known about the joy Sir Charles could bring into someone's life.

haha, what alternative perspective were you going to provide Doug?

His joke was a dig at affirmative action.

He's supposed to have an 'alternative perspective' by virtue of being an underrepresented race. Somehow.

Thats the joke.

they released the individual journalists' all-nba votes, and everyone voted AD first or second team except Taylor didn't include him on any team (1/2/3)...DG then says she shouldn't get a vote b/c she is just a studio host and not an analyst (=she doesn't necessarily know what she is talking about)

I don’t disagree with Doug here. I don’t think he’s being a bad person. Maybe tone deaf for some. It was a bad mistake.

He carried out gE's OOD directions.  But as to hiring him, it was that he was popular in college basketball and on normal ESPN and could get us enough good recruits to keep Frank's work rolling for a few more years at least and when we'd be in a better spot to hire after he'd have moved on from us.

Instead, we got oscar, and gottlieb fell into a life of crime and grift.

I'm not a big Le Batard fan but he understands that the personalities need ESPN more than the other way around.  Once a lot of these guys leave for a payday, they miss the spotlight and become shitty hot-take guys (as 8man pointed out).
