Radio host Matt Patrick from FM 95.3 in South Bend had this reaction to the news that Michigan State head coach Mark Dantonio suffered a heart attack after the Spartans’ thrilling overtime win over Notre Dame on Saturday:
The true crime here is that this idiot will become viral because of this. He’ll become somewhat popular for the first time in his career.
I don’t care if he was joking or if he knows Dantonio personally – it was insensitive to say something like this and video tape it. If he said it to Dantonio’s face and he was clearly trying to lighten up the mood for an old friend, that’s one thing. But the fact that he made public comments like this was just stupid.
And I don’t care of the heart attack was mild or not – it’s still as serious situation.
