I don't know whether it's no secret, but the circumstantial evidence suggests that he has issues on some level with all three guys.  For BluesandGold2 to pretend like that is a ridiculous suggestion is just a reflect of his innate homerism.  Monty has shown in different subtle ways that he has issues with each of those three guys in the course of game action and in the postgame comments.

Body language?  That's what you base the assertion that Montgomery does not like Crabbe, Solomon, and Cobbs, and they do not like him?  Oh wait, excuse me, how could I question the "subtle ways" that show his feelings.  I didn't realize the level of expertise and the close observation that you possess and exhibit.

Really?  You want to say that the players dislikes the coach and that he dislikes the players based on these observations?

As for innate homerism, guilty as charged.  However, homerism does not preclude me from being right, just as cynicism doesn't make you more objective.

I know Montgomery. I don't know the players.
I have spoken with friends on both sides that confirm much more than body language.
your homerism has usually clouded your objectivity (see defense of tedford ad naseum).
My objectivity comes from the Fact that I don't have a Dog in this or anyone else's Hunt.
By the way, I appreciate Yogi's Comments.
Interesting that 2 didn't respond to those comments.

He should be suspended for at least a Game.
Had Crabbe responded in kind what would his punishment have been or even worse, had he initiated the the physical contact?
What if Cal had lost? Would a written statement of apology have been sufficient?
