Truly awesome.
Golden handled the Vilma comment gracefully, didn't even appear to get under his skin at all. Laughed it off, and then fired back with a zinger. The guy is good with people.
My favorite part was this:
Dude: "So who you got [for the BCS Championship]?"
Al: "I'm not allowed to vote."
Dude: "What? Says who? The NCAA isn't here."
Al: "No. They're everywhere"
Said with a sly smile. Brilliant.
Sanctions, the NCAA, and really anything in life is evaluated by the context in which it is received. If you can laugh about it, it can't be that serious, right?
He handles himself so well. Eternally impressed with this man.
Hopefully eternity lasts through National Signing Day...
