Irked Williams drops F-bomb on live radio
Posted Feb 19, 2009
So Coach, why do you think a group of veteran players still stinks at pressing? “If I knew the answer to that,” Roy Williams said, “we wouldn’t still be (bleeping) stinking.” Keep in mind, Williams’ postgame press conferences are routinely run live on the Tar Heel Radio Network. So it wasn’t just the media but much of the state that heard the unfortunate F-bomb. So embarrassed by the slip-up, Williams laughed and apologized at least a half-dozen times.
