Gives a new meaning to "Keystone Cops".

I understand arresting somebody that they see doing this but utilizing resources to go to this extent is mind boggling.

Man, the police use to do this 10-12 years ago at the Keg Shop. An under 21 friend of mine got a MIP for helping carry the beer to the car.

If that's the law, do the Fareway "bag boys" need to be ticketed too?

I think I can honestly say that I wouldn't entertain any sort of suspension for this, and probably wouldn't even have them run an extra sprint in practice. I think I would shrug this off.

I've got worse. I know someone who got an MIP because they grabbed a beer for their of age family member out of the cooler at a tailgate and gave it to them (it was either a brother or parents, all were there iirc). The cop saw the entire thing happen and gave him a ticket after (not like the cop just saw him with the beer and he tried to excuse it with 'its for them').

Even not questioning the idiocy that is the 21-law, there's the letter and the spirit of the law, and this cop was definitely violating the spirit.

Agreed.

Did no one read the part that said "if convicted could spend up to a year in jail with an $1857 fine." He very easily could be suspended or kicked off the team. Unlikely but still possible.

Quite frankly, I would be shocked if Tyrus didn't get at least a game suspension out of this.

Our non-conference schedule (home) is full of creampuffs. Suspend him if needed and we'll never know the difference.

Any of those would be completely over the top.
If anything, I would make him tie his shoes one extra time, just to show I could. This is as inconsequential as things can be.

So a third of the catchees were the athletes? Does not CFH and CPR talk to their players about this? Maybe, this is why Kentucky built its own athletic dorm.

Seems like the past two years has been a downer for stupid stuff like this. The fball and bball players need to get with the program.

Rant over.
