    Hard to believe something hasn't been posted yet here.

    FSU uses a public park near its Louisville hotel for a walk-through Wednesday afternoon. People who actually believed they were allowed to use a public park were harassed by grad assistants, student trainers, student mangers, rent-a-cops ... no one really knows.

    Then the team walks back to their hotel .. going past a Joe's Crab Shack:

    As I said, you can't make this stuff up. Wasn't there one person in the FSU official party who didn't think another route was in order?

    There are so many places you'd need to avoid if you have Jameis on your team: A Burger King, a memorabilia store, an open quad area, a dorm with freshmen coeds, a bb gun store. Its gotta get complicated.

    FSU is in full us-against-the-world mode, and I'm sure the people of Tallahassee are eating up this display of righteous civil disobedience.

    Yeah they have pretty much accepted it and decided to go with it.

    Hell it worked for Miami for about a seven-year span. Imagine the shitstorm the Hurricanes wouldhave caused if social media existed around the mid-80s.

    We had dinner at that Joe's Crab Shack while I was in Louisville this summer. The food was just OK, nothing special.

    Joes is Red Lobster. Nothing more.

    Jimbo Fisher and Jameis Winston have pulled off the near-impossible: They've made college football fans with no particular rooting interest pull for Notre Dame and Bobby Petrino.

    As a Carolina grad, I appreciate what FSU is doing right now. It's much obliged.

    Good Wetzel column on Fisher's self-inflicted wounds.

    so I have a quarterback who is a thief and an alleged rapist handing off the ball to a guy being questioned in beating up a woman and a robbery, coached by a man who keeps his head buried in the sand because its better that way.

    Why do I watch this shit again?
