They all bitch left and right about free speech, but when someone makes a joke they don't like, oh, suddenly, "how dare they, they should be fired". All those bitching about this can go choke on a dick.
I agree. Unfortunately, that's the world we live in now and you have to be smarter than that - which is asking alot of an old man who didn't live in this sort of world his whole life.Quote:

Very unfortunately. :(Quote:

But regardless, the comments were NOWHERE on par with the level of backlash, bitching and media whoring that followed it. The demanding for him to be fire or hounding him so long that he resigned just to get it all to end is ridiculous. As I said before, the media can go fuck itself. And this is coming from someone who has spent the better part of the last 8 or 9 years working in media (newspaper for two years then radio). Shit like this is making me disgusted to work in this field and being in any way associated with those jackoffs.
Interesting read about coaches on the hot seat.

Mack Brown needs to stay the Longhorn coach for life. :nod: Mike Leach is in odd name on the list. I think he will get a few years to turn it around. He just needs to find his inner-pirate.

Didn't that happen before he was even a starter?

NCAA vs Oregon = tomorrow
My thoughts exactly. Between the bar fight, the whole Twitter/transfer crap, all the acting up here and there, he may have won the Heisman as a Freshman, he made ultimately be a hell of a QB in college, but I'm passing on him in the NFL draft. Just way too many potential maturity issues.Quote:

Well, not really, since the NCAA gets lots of money, so it is their best interest to look the other way and be out of touch with reality.
A single scholarship. Yeah, like that amounts to anything painful for the program.

Most likely they're gonna get a Bowl Ban for a year as well. Or, at least, that's what it sounds like.Quote:

Don't see any postseason ban: http://espn.go.com/college-football/...es-scholarship

Oregon will not be banned from the postseason despite major recruiting violations committed under former coach Chip Kelly.
:smh: :smh: :smh:
I REALLY hate the NCAA. Talk about the biggest load of bullshit.
Complete joke and I'm not even talking from a PSU side right now. :smh:
Don't worry guys O'bannon et al. is going to destroy the NCAA.
Then it will basically be the wild wild west where schools can pay recruits cash; blow and strippers/prostitutes to come to their school. Recruits will then make their recruiting demands to schools and the highest bidder will win.
The NCAA certainly has its flaws but you better be careful what you wish for you just might get it. Just sayin'
That will be Ok, I will find something else to do instead of watching the games:nod:Quote:

Ask Cam Newton's dad about the italicized part........
Yeah murder happens everyday, this does not mean I want it to be legal.Quote:

Pfft, I'm already ready to give up on college athletics. You have basketball being ruined by this one and done bullshit and you have football being ruined by schools getting away with murder while other schools follow the rules legitimately and get destroyed on the football field because of it.Quote:
