They couldn’t reach agreeement on Hume’s first principles of the contents of the mind.

“You don’t need to teach out in the public all the time.”

The players made an arrogant power play that fans and alumni should be ashamed of. They essentially demanded the AD be fired for following up on the recommendations of the investigation.

The standard isn’t whether it happens during the course of play, because sports routinely involve things that would technically be considered “assault” happening outside of the course of normal gameplay. Every silly baseball brawl, every late hit in football, every hockey fight, would be grounds for an assault charge…

You do realize that there are still hundreds of millions of *gasp* desktop computers that are actually plugged in to an electric outlet and don’t run on batteries. I have a system that runs my network which never shuts off and has a screensaver running. Not everybody uses a tablet or cellphone as their primary…

Yes, I’m sure that the U.S District Court Judge is simply confused by all the big words and legal jargon.

Bad faith breaches are absolutely a thing and exactly how one would assert the “spirit” of the Consent Decree is being breached. It may not be living document in that it’s not subject to change, but it’s absolutely a living document in that it’s subject to the bad faith acts of the parties to it.

3 game suspension (VA Tech, GA Tech, BC) and he’ll return to play #21 Florida State (12-1).

You’re comparing raping someone to flipping the bird.

Well charges were never filed. End of story there right. Must be nothing at all to see. Lord knows upstanding police departments the world over have never neglected to do their job before when it came to student athletes and sexual assault. Phew, glad we can all Move on now 

Stanced Toyota RAV3

It did seem a little odd that he didn’t at least have the sense to jump out of his car and furiously sweep the path with his curling broom.

But since they haven’t done that and they still worship his child rape enabling ass like a god, fuck PSU

Uh if the PSU alumni and fan base would, for the most part, acknowledged that Joe Paterno was a horrible human being and stop denying he was innocent and what he was a part of should never be excused just because he was good at winning football games, I might be inclined to agree with you.

That can be a really important step. When a 14 year old student opened up to me about her recent rape (I was her high school teacher) it was because she trusted me to do something about it. We were sitting with a police officer in the principal’s office within 15 minutes. She needed an advocate sitting with her. Going…

The thought process was probably not a decision between telling the principal or the police, but between telling and not telling at all. Going to the police is difficult and scary and there are myriad reasons why victims don’t do this right away. Telling an intermediary party is typical, not atypical, especially when…

I’m trying to think practically and since rape is a serious crime and very sensitive crime going to the police should be the first step so evidence can be collected.

I wouldn’t say that. She trusted that the principal would help her and he did.

These are kids; telling a trusted adult is not a “wasted step”, and it also allows her some accommodation from the school, so she doesn’t have to ride the same bus with him or whatnot. Give the girl a break- she did nothing wrong. No one can ever be a victim perfectly enough to meet everyone’s standards.

The 31-year-old Torontonian commemorated his recent vasectomy with a celebratory photo shoot. In one photo, he tenderly cradles a head of kale like a green, leafy infant.
