Yet Another Reason To Hate College Athletics
March 12, 2008 · 2 Comments
Look at what Clemson did to this brave young man.
Although Clemson coach Tommy Bowden has been vague in his explanations, it appears that he pulled McElrathbey’s scholarship because, after signing 25 new recruits last month, the Tigers had to take away some existing scholarships to stay under the NCAA maximum of 85. With several running backs ahead of him on the depth chart, Ray Ray became expendable. “We’re pretty good at running back right now,” coach Tommy Bowden said, as if that was the only issue.
Cold-blooded? Heartless? You bet. Having one more scholarship to hand out isn’t going to change Clemson’s program in any significant way, but losing it certainly could change Ray Ray and Fahmarr’s lives.
Ray Ray now has the choice of transferring to another school to finish his eligibility (if he can find one willing to offer him a scholarship), or he could finish his degree requirements over the summer, enroll in graduate school at Clemson and accept the school’s offer to be a graduate assistant. Although Clemson points out that McElrathbey would still be on scholarship, the stipend would pay for tuition and books only, not room and board.
In short, the McElrathbey brothers’ lives are again up in the air thanks to Bowden’s lack of compassion. Apparently having an extra inside linebacker or tight end is more important to him than showing loyalty to a young man who has given three years of effort to the program — to someone trying to raise a teenager.
And what is even sadder is that the alumni and boosters of Clemson, like every other Division 1-A school, will probably not give a rip about what happened. All the alumni want is to win games, get their special seating at games, and receive special invitations to alumni events. To the alumni, coaches, boosters, and other ticks who suck off the accomplishments of impressionable and usually poor young men, these players are as replaceable as a kitchen trash bag.
At least the pros are up front with their callousness and cut throat nature.

If You Are Wearing A GPS Ankle Bracelet

On Tuesday, March 11, Clark County Sheriff’s deputies charged the 37-year-old Wombles with six counts of burglary for break-ins he committed in the area between December 26 and Jan. 16, said sheriff Detective Andy Reynolds.
Officials apprehended Wombles in January after investigators tracked him at the scene of an alleged burglary in Miami County by following the GPS signals from his ankle bracelet, Reynolds said.
The suspect was later arrested during a traffic stop when deputies found several stolen items in his car. He had been wearing the ankle bracelet as a term of his probation for an unrelated crime he committed in Miami County, said Reynolds.

If You Enjoy Urinating In Public
March 12, 2008 · Leave a Comment
“The temporary toilets have not been used as much as we had hoped,” according to Muharrem Demirok, chairman of the county’s building committee.
Two public toilets were placed in downtown Linköping close to the town’s entertainment district following discussions about how to alleviate the problem of public urination on walls and building entryways in the downtown area.
“This is both a sanitary nuisance and it creates a sense of insecurity in the community. People feel uncomfortable when drunks openly pee in public,” the county official told newspaper Östgöta Correspondenten.
The temporary toilets are well illuminated and clearly identified with large signs. The problem instead is apparently that some people, primarily young men who have been drinking alcohol, prefer to pee on walls.
Several dozen readers responded online when the local newspaper asked how offenders should be punished.

If You Bring A Skeleton Onto A Plane

Make sure you have a good excuse.
The 62-year-old woman and her 63-year-old friend, who both live in Italy, were hauled in by airport police Tuesday after a scan of the bag showed a human skull and other bones. The women were traveling to Italy from Brazil.
It turned out, however, that the woman was simply trying to fulfill the last wish of her brother—who died 11 years ago in Sao Paulo, Brazil—to be buried in Italy.
Thanks to Dolla Bill.

John Daly Is Awesome

And he is now without a coach.
“My whole goal for him was he’s got to show me golf is the most important thing in his life,” Harmon said from his golf school in Las Vegas. “And the most important thing in his life is getting drunk.”
Harmon said he has worked three times this year with Daly, but he said Daly’s behavior at the PODS Championship was enough to end the short-lived relationship.
Thanks to Dolla Bill.
