Has it really been more than 5 years since Huggins was pulled over and video taped drunk?

So, he’s in Vegas for AAU tournaments/recruiting and people are supposed to believe this?

Drew Payne, vice chair of WVU’s Board of Governors and a friend of Huggins and members of his family, spoke with Larry and said Huggins was injured while he packed and readied to leave for the airport and a flight to another AAU event.

“He’d been to a couple of games Friday and went back to the hotel room and he tripped on something and fell and hit a table going down,” Payne said. “He messed up his ribs and maybe even hit his head a little bit. But it was around 4 o’clock in the afternoon and he had to call his brother for help. He was in pretty bad pain and couldn’t really move.”

In a Vegas hotel room?

Last year it was black eye(s?) from “walking into a door.” In May 2008 he “tripped” getting off of a plane in North Carolina. This year he “tripped on something.”

Uh-huh.

The kicker to me, is that the first concern upon this getting out was to make sure recruits were aware that he didn’t have a hear attack or heart related incident.

I guess it’s better to let the impression remain that the coach is a clumsy drunk rather than one with a heart problem.*

There is never such a thing as a simple or quick project when it involves plumbing, knocking down drywall and installing drywall.

After going well over budget, extremely well over the planned time, it is still a non-functional bathroom. The plumber comes tomorrow to install the new valves for the shower and to add cut-off valves for the bath/shower (have to love older homes that somehow thought that cut-off valves were an option of excess.

I’ve lost track of the number of extra trips to Home Depot, Lowe’s and the Ace down the street.

For the first time in my relationship/marriage the wife actually made me shave. I wasn’t bothering while working, and had a playoff-beard thing going where I wasn’t going to bother shaving until we had a working bathroom/shower.  She didn’t like it and observed that it wasn’t exactly speeding up the process.

Needless to say I don’t even know what I have missed since Tuesday.
