    As usual, they go straight for the ass.

    If I were a parent of a victim kid, the one thing I would make sure of above everything else would be that the names of the perps would be splattered all over the place.

    I hope NJ.com goes back to those parents who spoke so eloquently at the meeting about the unfairness to the players (and cheerleaders!) to see if they want to change their opinion. Start with the mom whose video is embedded in the link, the one who said she heard they were just grabbing each other's butts and stuff.

    Since when is a school obligated to field a football team, or, for that matter, to have any extracurricular activity? Good luck in that lawsuit. Want a scholarship? Study real hard.

    "It's a privilege and not a right" - a favorite expression of educational bureaucrats in explaining why something can't
    be done

    A Stinky Hitler is one thing, but an Anal Pudding Pop goes too far.

    What I love about this whining about "this might cost my kid a scholarship at D-I" is that if your kid is that great, recruiters are already talking to him, and they won't care whether your season was canceled. If you're still 6-foot-3, 200 pounds and can run a 4.4 40, there will still be room for you on a college roster.

    Now, it's true they might care if you're a freshman-attacking rapist.

    its actually better for that kid because he's now not risking injury five more times on a Friday night.

    You put your finger in and shake it all about.
    You do the hokie pokie and you turn yourself around.
    That's what it's all about.

    Journalists should be mad, too. Costing students scholarship opportunities? That's supposed to be OUR job, dammit! ;D
