This is the only real take to have.

He’s allowed to live his life but personally, I’d love for it to be a series of disappointments just like this.

Football, as a system, both on the juvenile and professional level, contributes to sexual assault and rape culture.

Listen we can talk about forgiveness, growing as a person and the mistakes of youth. How our correctional system needs to rehabilitate, not punish.

You know what dude, sometimes you don’t get second chances. You do something bad or enough or fuck up, that’s it. I know some people told him that he can play again, but he is a liability wherever he goes to school, and no school needs a convicted rapist in there team that bad.

I’m so sorry.

I’m thankful for this stupidity. We all should be. I wish more were this damn dumb. Down the line, it may save our lives.

I’m in NY State and I see Confederate flags. It’s pretty stupid since they were an invading army.

Whenever I read this shit, I say a million thanks to my Mom for getting us the hell out of Ohio when we were young. I don’t go back often, but I’m always shocked by how bad it is when I do.

Yep. You know he does.

Another big surprise: the first few posts on his Facebook page involve him and his friends calling each other fags.

Not to be racist about men who look like the stupidest of the three little pigs, but why do they ALL look like that? Little tiny nose, little piggy eyes, extra chins, skin the texture and color of spoiled milk, and an overall smugness that I’d like to smack off his greasy face. Yeah, single is no surprise, he hasn’t…

Besides being a racist shit bag, how stupid is this guy to post that on the internet? Really? I just don’t get it. If you want to talk shit, do it in private or with some drinking buddies (while making sure they aren’t recording you). They should just fire him for being stupid and not even bother with the…

Damn. Firefighters used to spray their high-pressure hoses on Civil Rights activists, but he hates black people so much that he would even pass up the opportunity to do that “by accident?...”

Counterpoint: the dog is his wife.

I can’t say I feel bad that a guy convicted of rape isn’t being allowed to play college football. He was tried as a juvenile, which alone was pretty damn generous, his records will be sealed and won’t show on a basic background check, and he’s been attending college with no problem.

High-school football player wallows in the rape culture of male youth athletics, commits a truly horrific crime (go back and read the accounts). Five years later, he’s supposedly trying to get his life back on track by .... playing college football.

Depends. Will the rape follow the young woman the rest of her life?

something like 80% of the restaurants I’ve been to don’t even have doors between the dining area and the kitchen. I wouldn’t fault them if someone ran in, intoxicated, and placed their face on a range burner and died.

The family has to be careful, when it comes to people wanting to help, because there are quite a few charlatans and swindlers out there, who are willing to use a tragedy to fatten their pockets. I don’t believe for one second that this “activist” was able to watch surveillance video, unless there’s a hotel employee,…

Very interesting! I recall reading something (in the New Yorker, maybe?) about the emerging science of putting ER patients on ice to buy time.
