[QUOTE="Cuseregular, post: 293453, member: 185"]
gotta share a CF story that isn't so flattering. Been holding on to it for nearly a decade but this discussion warrants bringing up to if nothing else provide some balance here. Interacted with Grob many times and if nothing else the guy was nothing but a gentleman. And I mean one of the nicest people I've ever met, period. Forget his coaching ability of lack thereof.
 
I was heavily involved with the Big brother program for nearly a decade and CF was invited to one of our dinners. Since I was involved in the program that night I was at the big shots table as was he and his girlfriend. After the cocktail hour as we all were getting seated for the main program he and his date were the last to sit. And for some God forsaken unknown reason he lets out the following comment for all of us to hear at the table.
 
Words to the effect of "yeah it was all I could do to get her here as she didn't want to be here or go to this event, had to talk her into to it". The horrified look on her face none of us there will ever forget. When he was away for a bit one of the ladies at the table had to say some comforting words later to get her through the event. Most classless, inappropriate and down right mean thing I've ever seen in such a circumstance.
 
So in my one encounter with CF he was a classless insensitive jerk, while my multiple interactions with the coaching challenged Grob showed him nothing to be but a nice magnanimous person. Not always is all as it seems.
