Patrick Ewing's NSFW interview slip was the most entertaining part of Georgetown's win
You have to forgive Patrick Ewing for being just a bit too excited following Georgetown's 88-80 win at Illinois on Tuesday night. After an illustrious playing career (As a Knicks fan, I long for the days of No. 33 roaming the paint at THE GARDEN), Ewing toiled as an NBA assistant coach — never even getting a sniff from the Knicks (What happened to "Once a Knick, ALWAYS a Knick"?!) — for nearly 15 years before finally landing a head coaching gig at his alma mater, Georgetown. And after an expected difficult first season in which he guided the Hoyas to a 15-15 record, the big fella is now on the verge of a big season.

With their latest victory, the Hoyas moved to 3-0 and afterward, Ewing got a little too graphic when describing one of his players. Have a listen:
Isn't it funny how saying "nuts" is so scandalous while saying "big cajones" is all good? And are all Georgetown basketball coaches required to drape a towel over their shoulders? Anyway, congrats, Patrick. Keep winning and you'll quickly get the hang of these on-court interviews.
