Hey, Mike Woodson: Did You Eat That Woman's Chips?

With a heavy heart I come to you today to pose a question I never thought I’d have to consider in my time here on Earth:

Is Mike Woodson a chip thief?

It’s not something I ask lightly, but after reviewing evidence from the San Antonio Spurs’ 111-107 playoff win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night, I can no longer ignore the possibility.

Twitter user @Rances_21 (h/t The Big Lead’s Ryan Glasspiegel) noticed Clippers assistant coach Woodson taking a pinch of chips from a tray resting on the ledge of the padded partition in front of courtside fans at the Staples Center.

He did it quickly, possibly surreptitiously. It was a quick grab-and-eat—like it never even happened.

So we’re left with either (a) Woodson sniped some chips, or (b) this man brings his own food to games, opens it up on the court and keeps it perched in front of fans, just in case he gets the tummy rumbles.

Either reality is perfect, really. If Woodson is a chip brigand, it insinuates he feels close enough to the fans that what's theirs is his and vice versa. Alternately, I love the idea of a guy keeping a homemade Lunchables kit on deck for instant calorie intake. Can’t risk breaking a link in the energy chain.

In any case, Woodson needs fuel. He’ll bring his own or appropriate it as an act of Manifest Destiny. Just give him the loot, guys.

Dan is on Twitter. And now he’s hungry.
