90% of Skins at voluntary workout: Who do you think wasn't there?

MTK · 03-22-2005, 09:34 AM

The missing 10% were most likely guys who were excused for legit reasons, and guys who are unlikely to be back (Gardner).

As for Hasselbeck, we could try to be a little more respectful, don't you think?

My fault. I just like ol' Hasselbeck and it's a general consensus that we find his wife extremely hot. Didn't know she was pregnant though, therefore I withdraw my previous statements.

Except for the ones about Jimoh...

Ade Jimoh was busy re-inflating his head and ego!

Personnally, I think he spends way too much time talking in here!

that he really doesn't need half of his stuff anymore

if LaVar didn't get a pre-nup, he wasted whatever it is he learned at Penn State...

That Guy · 03-22-2005, 11:04 AM

i thought football players went to college to get paid

Drift Reality · 03-22-2005, 11:05 AM

Learned? I'm sure he studied a lot at Penn State...

BDBohnzie · 03-22-2005, 11:12 AM

if by studying you mean partying, women, and tutors doing your homework...

I suppose unless you've actually gone to PSU or know half as much as those of us who did go about Paterno's views on college football and what his players' first priority is, ignorant and asinine comments like that are easy to make.
Find me just one PSU Football grad, or for that matter a single NCAA investigation, or even graduation rate statistics to support your comments and I might look at them in some other light.

Whoa there PSU. Think people were just poking fun at college athletics in general. I am pretty sure no one was slamming Penn State or Paterno - just a little light hearted ribbing. No need to get bent out of shape.

Understood. Sorry if the backlash was too harsh. General joking about college athletics I can appreciate, but I take it personally when it comes at the expense of one of the cleanest programs in college sports. I just think it's ironic that the jokes are being made about a PSU player when I'm sure we have some FSU and Miami players on our team that would be more fitting targets.
I mean come on, LaVar's favorite way to pass time is playing Chess for goodness sake. LOL

Sorry PSUSkinsFan - If you're a star, doesn't matter where you go. Academic standards are relaxed for you, with the possible exception of Notre Dame (who can't land a star anymore so that's not a problem.) These kids don't go to college for the degree, they go to play in the NFL. I'm one that thinks the NCAA should pay them. Or at least give them a decent amount of spending money every month. They can't get a job because they're playing sports, and some of them don't have the resources to help them buy food, clothes, etc. So they get an education that most of the time they can skip classes and get a diploma that means shit. Bleh!

PSUSkinsFan - I'm not ripping PSU, but I'm sure they have more than their share of NCAA violations. Every school does. Especially when trying to recruit a winning football team. Every college does.
