I don't believe it's a straw man that we all agree on what unsportsmanlike is. You love a program where people have been arguing for 30 years about whether your entire University of Miami program is unsportsmanlike. And those Miami players didn't agree with you that it was unsportsmanlike.

And I'm sure the Colorado players wouldn't agree with you that everything they were doing to Oklahoma State on... Saturday was unsportsmanlike because we've gotten numb to that particular disrespect. That one's so in sports now that you can do the Kai Sinet dance last night in the end zone and nobody's finding any of that disrespectful.

I have, however, been consistent in the idea of the games to me are more fun and more fun to watch when I've got people clucking at the television about wanting more respect with their games, with their behavior, more respect. I want more respect on the game. And I'm generally like, nah, we don't need to respect all of that that much.

We respect it plenty already, the way that we behave around all of this. And I sort of, I buck on the idea of we're all aghast watching our television and all of us are like, ooh. That was disrespectful, what they did there, because it's all meant to be entertainment, and you can control both your players and your temper.

Give me the context so that Greg can hear it of where it is that it sounded like somebody stepped on a goose. Give me all of the contacts. That is Rose at the bottom of the scrum. Lucy, I don't think it's right the way that you continue to laugh. I think that's disrespectful. I don't care. I know. Yeah, there you go. We have a different definition of disrespect there, and you don't care.
