She's obviously unstable. Hope the coach finds a good lawyer :)

TN Freeper here. My wife and I think the coach is nuts. Look at her website ( www.sallyanthony.com ) and you can see what type of "role model" she is.

The co-owners hired some basketball player for 2 games for $10,000. Sally Anthony was bragging about it, but then before this now infamous game, for some reason Anthony told the young coach not to play him. The coach did anyway.

I think the coach attempted some off-court "passes" at the 2 game player. He rebuffed, so she went off. The league now just looks like the WWE off steroids.

I meant to say the OWNER made some passes, not the coach!!! The coach has been a complete class act.

Sorry.

Just how DOES a 23 year-old female get to coach a semi-pro men's team?

How could she possibly know enough about coaching MENS basketball at 23? No freakin' way she gets any respect from the players. I would even question a 23 year old guy coaching a professional basketball team. There's simply not enough experience gained at 23 to coach professional anything. Something else is going on here - you are quite right about that.

She is 18-7 with the team this year, so she must doing something right. She was assistance coach at Ohio State University before going to the Nashville Rhythms. She has an extensive basketball career: http://www.usabasketball.com/bioswomen/ashley_mcelhiney_bio.html Ashley McElhiney speaks with reporters after being named head coach of the Nashville Rhythm.

Heh, let me coach the Chicago Bulls from the early 90's and it could look like I was doing something right too.

Well that's a helluva lot better than the Hawks.
