I think a half-game suspension is appropriate, but it's not comparable to a situation where he actually harms someone.
It's the entitlement issues that are the biggest issue with him, and you'd best believe NFL teams are taking note. Is hoping on a table and saying that a huge deal, especially juxtaposed against some of the issues we are seeing in sports right now? No. But it's doing these things when you know people know who you are, when you know they will tweet about it, etc. that just makes you think that he believes he's above it all. That feeling of being untouchable has gotten many professional athletes in trouble, and while you can maybe write it off to being a dumb kid his days of being treated like a kid are numbered.
Yeah, he must have lost a bet or been dared or something. Maybe even a double dog dare, which would give him no choice in the matter.
There was a slight breach of etiquette by skipping the double dare and going right for the throat....
I think it's incredibly lame, and shows a lack of respect for women, but then again, as an older woman I have a far different basis for my opinions than most of you. I tend to look past the locker room talk in here to a certain degree. I appreciate the fact that the Seminoles have apparently taken steps to show that this is not the kind of behavior they want to see displayed by their students, including those on the national stage.
I guess I'm lost in where there is humor in this. I get it, I've seen the "original video" that was actually fake, but I'm not really finding this funny at all. You've been accused of rape and you've still got pending charges for said rape...and you're going to stand on a table in a crowded area and yell that. 6'4" Heisman Trophy winner, two sport athlete, I'm sure people are going to recognize who you are. Just dumb.
I'll take a half day suspension from work for saying this at brothers in Iowa city last weekend as were watching a very intoxicated couple try and make out on the dance floor.
No. You'll take a half day suspension for being at Brothers. Everything past there is just adding to the shame.
I don't see a problem with it. But then again I say "That's what she said"/"That's what he said" all the time at work.
You're right. There shouldn't be any consequences for saying "**** her in the *****" when you're a Heisman winning, championship winning quarterback representing a University of higher education, with thousands of young children idolizing you.
You're right, why don't you email Jimbo and tell him that he has no idea how to run a team...
save your outrage for the real issues happening in football instead of trying to hang a kid for yelling a meme outloud.
"That's what she said"
"**** her in the *****"
Even CF's language filter suggests there's a difference.
And I agree with others, this isn't exactly robbing a bank or sexual assault. But it's incredibly lame and in poor taste - which oddly enough is what made the "that's what she said" bits funny - it's incredibly lame.
And I'll also say I'm not sure, on it's own, it's worthy of a suspension from a game. But given his history - he really leaves the staff little choice.
