Buying What He's Selling

The first thing I thought when I read a tweet that Duke's coach congratulated Mercer's team in their locker room after the game was, and without any hesitation, that conniving bastard is trying to rewrite the headline.  Instead of the headline being "Duke loses in first round," it becomes "Coach K magnanimously congratulates winning team."  And, right now, the headline on the main page and the sports page of USA Today is "Coach K’s classy move after loss."  It is a self-serving move and nothing else.  Win or lose, it has to be about him.
