    Are we all so bitter that we’re going to take one picture of a guy yelling on a football field and tell ourselves a story of what a demon he is? I get you hate football but he’s a real person.

      Sorry, but while Duck coaches have millions to spend on PR flacks to promote themselves and their brain damaging sport, the UO Matters budget only covers cheap sarcasm and innuendo.

      I think a well-paid football coach can take an occasional light hit (pun intended), and I doubt he worries much about the opinion of this board.

      As for the face, I’m reminded of Tucker Carlson, who (though IMO a sharp populist essayist) has made a career of one or two trademark faces.

      I don’t watch regularly, but basically, he’ll let almost anyone on his show and give them 60-120 seconds to lay out their case uninterrupted. During this time, he furrows his brow and seems concerned, or even mildly appalled. And he gets paid boo-coo bucks for doing that.

      Doesn’t seem so different from being a football coach. Wish someone would pay me big money for pulling a face.

      (Also, they both have great hair!)
