Can the Big 10 rescind its offer to Rutgers?

That is your opinion. His stance on one meal a day is bullshit. He was offered a scholarship, room and food in exchange for playing football. He said yes. Then, he complains about the deal he agreed to.

Yeah, no. This is complete horseshit. I'm, literally, across the hall from the NCAA compliance office of a D1 University and just asked. They might close some of the dining halls based on perceived campus population, but they are, most certainly, serving all 3 meals.

I'm sure that if Winston was actually starving, then all he had to do is tell a "friend of the program" and a truck-load of crab legs would have appeared. I too hate the NCAA and believe that athletes at the major college powerhouses are getting hosed. However, to blame this act of stupidity on limitations of NCAA…

You really believe the horseshit you write, don't you? He won the National Championship and Heisman Trophy in a town that covered up his raping someone, and you are taking the position that no one in that very same town would feed him and his teammates? Not ONE stupid football groupie would cook this piece of shit a…

THANK YOU. I was a scholarship athlete and never ever had a problem getting free food on campus and I've never heard of a school saying its finals week no dinner. I would imagine FSU has at least 10 different places to get food on campus and flex plans for off campus as well. But hey lets pretend the NCAA is…

I rode the pine for a D1 football team and we had access to free food anywhere on campus. Furthermore, we had meal plan cards that were always flush with cash that worked off campus too. ON TOP OF THAT most local food spots would "hook it up" (yes, I know that's not exactly street legal, save it). Winston is just an…

S/he seems kind of unhinged. I responded with similar levels of dismissiveness to her post, and s/he dismissed it after it received too many stars. Here's the copy:

Yes. In terms of power - brute strength - bigger is better. These skinny dudes with the shredded physiques may be FIT but they are not POWERFUL. That is why the author's statement is stupid and filled with agenda.

Fetishizing men for strength is also absurd and archaic though. I get what you're saying for some adult men (even though I don't buy the acceptability of double standards), but this stuff is affecting kids. You know, those little boys who we are hoping grow up into men who respect women and themselves, who have…

THANK. YOU. I was losing my goddamn mind reading this train wreck of an article.

This article is so fucking depressing. How is the objectification of men a false equivalency? What is the difference between breasts and butts and abs and biceps? They are all sexualized body parts. What an anti-feminist article this is. I'm a fat dude, who has been desperately trying to achieve an inguinal crease to…

Agreed, let women enjoy their scantily clad men and let men enjoy their scantily clad women.

But the objectification of men is a false equivalency to the objectification of women, because what's being fetishized is strength. Virility, capability, vigor, fortitude. Power.

I feel like the straight reporting of fact that he was not expected to be there isn't really being self-righteous as much as it is, err, performing his job to it's exact specifications. But you know. He made no judgement or criticisms, and he can't really be blamed for trusting his source in this instance.

so we're just going to pretend that there aren't prominent Asian pitchers (Nomo, Dice K, darvish, okajima, fukadome, uerhara, wang ect) all don't share that a variation on that motion where they hide the ball as long as possible with that odd look away from the plate? Which seems to be a pretty good technique and is…

Asian pitchers are a little notorious for having very unorthodox deliveries and mechanics. Which can be deceptive. Hawk has never been racist before, and he's been in the booth a loooooong time. I know he's loathed because he's a homer, but he does deserve the benefit of the doubt here.

Just watched it again and he's calling the motion deceptive, not Asians. C'mon, you guys are better than this.

Ambiguous and racist don't really go together. I will agree he put the words too close together but I heard it more as"he used a technique that is widely used in Asia. This type of pitch is known for being deceptive". What's racist about that?
