I was reading about Bobby Knight's comments wishing all the former IU administrators were dead. It got me thinking. Who are the all time hard heads in sports?

Now this will go back a l-o-n-g time in S & SW suburban history, but ...
  • Ron Tomczak, Sr. (TF North FB)
  • George Egofske (Rich E. FB)
  • John Fitzgerald (Reavis Wrestling)
Who have I missed?

Yeah, I read that too. Ignorant thing to say. But...
Do the hard heads have to be athletes? Or can they be owners and GMs?

Bill Wirtz.
Yes I was going to say him which was why I asked if owners and GMs count. Apparently they do. I will add the McCaskeys to that list along with Jerry Reinsdorf and Kenny Williams.

How about Lovie Smith...?

Kirk Gibson, Steve Howe, Billy Martin, Earl Weaver, Steve Yzerman, Adam "Pac Man" Jones, T.O., Dexter Manley, John Riggins.

Really, we could go on and on.
