It would have been fun to watch for sure.  Hopefully he can get it all turned around. "Good leaders being scarce, following yourself is allowed."

I mean, ya wanna believe it's gonna be something good, but ya know it ain't. Tiger. Stripes. Et cetera. Then again, I don't know how highly it speaks of some of us in that we kinda know that certain things go on (of course, never in the specific), yet take great joy in the tournament run of 2010.

Exactly. This isn't some kid looking to have a good time one night and got caught up in something he shouldn't. I'm pretty sure the cops could pull him over 7 days a week and they could charge him with the same thing all 7 days.

The article says he was bailed out almost immediately after getting booked.  Wonder who did that? He did us a favor last spring.  We wouldn't need losing a key player in January. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

The kid can say what he wants, he was ineligible and was simply his way of taking the easy way out. "Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don't know which half."
