Yes, I can and here it is.
Bill Snyder is head coach.
He is acting within the bounds of head coaches everywhere.

Press, you seem to be answering the how - which I think everyone understands - and ignoring the actual question, "why?".

"Why did that nut stab those dudes?"

"He had a knife. A hand to hold the knife. He has arms. His arms are fully capable of moving in a stabbing motion."

An aside, but has anyone ever pointed out that you have an oddly exuberant love for authority? I mean I don't expect everyone to have my pathological dislike and distrust of authority, but you take it further the other way than anyone I've ever known.

Cheers.

Because he felt like it.

I explained Bill Snyder's actions and you make up
an elaborate story about it. I do not waste time
thinking about why people do things. There is no
end to it.

"I do not waste time thinking about why people do things"

That actually explains a lot. Thanks for the insight. Being a big believer in the power of positive reinforcement, I found something I really think you'll like:

Apparently Snyder changed his mind.
