Mike Leach Challenges Dan Wolken to Debate After Tweeting Barack Obama Video

In the category of sentences nobody ever expects to write or read, comes this: Washington State football coach Mike Leach challenged USA Today college football writer Dan Wolken to a debate after Wolken wrote a column criticizing Leach for tweeting, then deleting, a highly doctored video of Barack Obama that took the former president's remarks out of context.

Let's break this down.

Leach posted a highly spliced video of Obama speaking at the 2014 European Union, and the coach continued to defend the post and challenged people to prove it was false when many tweeted at him and suggested the video was doctored.
