[Husker] If this doesn't get your blood boiling...

I third the Maple Street Press rec. Mike J. has a couple articles in it as
well, along with several other excellent writers.

As to the coaches vs. refs thing, there have been plenty of fiery coaches
who get calls as well as docile coaches who get calls. Although in general I
like to fall back on the saying: "you catch more flies with honey than with
vinegar."

That said, we don't have enough information to judge Bo on this, nor will we
ever. Unless the refs start blatantly making calls against NU after Bo blows
up, I think we ought to let him be.
