In an age of hyper-sensitivity it's nice to see an old school guy like former Notre Dame head coach Lou Holtz throw all that PC crap out the window.

In today's Sporting News Today "My Profile" Holtz is the subject. It's basically just a bland questionnaire they have a sports celebrity fill out asking things like "What are you reading?" and "Who is your dream date?"

Riveting stuff.

But today Holtz took it to a new level when he answered the "What I'm up to these days" question:

"Work at ESPN, play golf and do speaking events. I thought I was retired, ESPN found out I was retarded."

Wow. I'm sure ESPN has no policy against hiring the mentally-challenged (see Emmitt Smith), but I'm pretty sure looking old and lisping terribly doesn't constitute retardation.
