"Victoria, Victoria"
I count as friends a number of major college coaches, and so I have a special appreciation of the demands involved in being a big-time college football or basketball coach. Not only do such coaches have to deal with sometimes overbearing media, fans, and college administrations, they also have to oversee their athletes' off-the-field conduct, such as keeping the usually cash-deprived athletes away from the various sources of financial inducements that violate various NCAA rules that could lead to disastrous sanctions for the coach's program. Believe me, it's a full-time job.
Well, as difficult as their job already is, it now looks as if those college coaches are going to have to include review of their athletes' instant messenger habits in their oversight duties.

But the commenters are truly frightening....
