EDDIE SUTTON IS BACK AND DRUNKER THAN EVER!
Scorers tables: holding up drunk invalid coaches for fifty years.
Coach Eddie Sutton is returning to the bench just two wins shy of the magic arbitrary number of 800. But the legendary drunk/pillhead isn’t returning to the familiar environs of Stillwater where his son now reigns. Instead Sutton will be taking over the job for the San Francisco Dons. After being introduced by some girly AD Sutton addressed the small media gathering.
“I’d like to thank Mrs. Debra MannBearPig for this opportunity to return to the college game that I love so much. I really think this is the beginning of something special for the San Francisco Dons. I’m incredibly excited to be coaching such fantastic young student-athletes as KC Jones, Bill Russel, lil’ Fred Scolari. Frankly I was a bit surprised that such a great job opportunity would present itself at this point in the season, but I’m not here to ask questions. I’m here to drink gin and coach basketball, and I’m all outta gin!”
Coach Sutton falls off the podium.
Well this should certainly be fun. We’re setting the over/under on number of games it takes to win two games at 12.

Over for 100 please. I’ll also take five dollars as a side bet that he gets some sort of intoxication ticket before he gets 800 at 49:1.

I hope he was given the traditional San Fransisco local’s greeting when he crawled on his knees to that job….
Twenty years on, and yes, I’m still bitter.
