Quick question of taunting ethics

Is it cool for us to taunt Bob Huggins for spending several days in the hospital after breaking his ribs, whereas Coach Calhoun got up and finished a long distance bike ride for charity? Or should we just keep it to ourselves as quiet pride? What's the right thing to do in that situation? Is it too serious of an injury to taunt about? I don't want to be a jerk about it, I just think it's a humorous bond two of my favorite big east coaches coincidentally share, and I think coincidental bonds over physical injury are great sources for arbitrary judgments on character and coaching ability, is all. So is that cool?

I think the important thing is to for Huggy to be OK
If/when that happens, then absolutely, he would be a girly man compared to Jim “Rambo” Calhoun.
But priorities, folks, priorities. Get well soon, Huggy.

As an aficianado of early-2005 pop culture
I am disappointed you did not post the video to DHT’s little-remembered chart-topping hit, “Listen To Your Heart” as your response.
What’s that, you say? You dig that melody and those deep lyrics, but you want something to dance to?
BAM.
You can thank me at any time.

I see no particular moral problem with it
but I think it’d be tricky to pull off on a structural level. “Our coach finished a bike ride with broken ribs as opposed to going to the hospital” doesn’t fit all that nicely into your standard taunting rhyme scheme.
In other taunting news, have you seen all the stuff from the Rick Pitino extortion trial? Ho-lee shit.
there's an all time joke
about a fifteen second shot clock or overusing the full court press in there somewhere. I just can’t put my finger on it.
