Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

VIDEO: ESPN’s Bob Knight Curses On TV, Rece Davis Apologizes

(By Dan Fogarty, SportsGrid) - ESPN college basketball analyst and legendary former coach Bob Knight referenced “chicken s**t defense” during 'College Gameday' today, proving once again that there’s nothing like accidental anchor profanity to spice up your Saturday afternoon.

The cursing (oh, heavens, the cursing!) occurred during a segment on the show where some of the other analysts were on the court with microphones. Members of Baylor were participating in a scrimmage, and apparently not playing good defense.

The defense was “chicken s**t,” in fact. Watch as his fellow anchors react the only way they can: by throwing their arms up and laughing. Following a commercial break, host Rece Davis apologized to viewers.
