I threw this into the comment section of Kyle's story but with the open thread going I doubt anyone will see it. I thought it was worth putting up in here. Very cool.
First he made a casual comment...then was given a heads up of the reasoning behind it. Well played, Coach...

For every retweet this gets before halftime, we will donate $1 to the cystic fibrosis foundation. #upto1k

Classy, classy guy. Well played, Coach.
FWIW, the Greg Gumbel studio crew apparently hadn't read 11W's story, either, because they had a little chuckle about the track suits, and Chuck went on about how it was silly for coaches to wear suits & ties anyway, and then a producer slipped them a note and they brought it back around.
i don't like iona, but i really don't like cystic fibrosis. i don't know if there are any other types of fibrosis, but fuck those too.
