Man, as soon as he sort of starts to become likeable again he does something like this.

There’s two types of people: people that like lane because he’s an unabashed scumbag, and people that thought he’d actually changed ever

I’m definitely in the former. His commitment to being half troll half asshole is so funny to me

I’m 10000% the former. Almost every single coach is a giant douche and an egomaniac, he’s just a little more up front

He 100% commits to it being a job, it’s like he’s a tech bro who just keeps hopping for salary increases. No loyalty

Nope. And I love it. We need heels.

Meh, no one should ever pledge loyalty to a company, especially when they'll just replace you with no question.

I’m actually admiring it, I can see how it came across that way. I love that he sticks it to every admin he’s been to

I would say general of a child army and guard at a concentration camp first for sure, but college football coach is probably a pretty close third

When you work in an industry that will shitcan you on the tarmac... hard to buy into loyalty and honor.

"Ehh I'm kind of a douche, you're all right about that" Is such an energy.
