Wow, how disturbing! Thank God we didn't lose to the POS thugs. Wow

wow, if an ND player had done that, you can bet there would be a media storm, the student would get kicked off the team, and suspended or most likely expelled

Wow. Learn something new everyday. Didn't know there was such a "game". I guess the key is to not look defenseless.

Your advice is better than what I was going to suggest.....which is just punching anyone that says "Wassup?" in the throat

Agreed. Kind of pissed these dudes even got to play against us. What a weird, weird game from all aspects.

This isn't news. This has been happening in lower class neighborhoods for years. I grew up in the bad part of town and was one of a small number of caucasian kids in school. I remember groups of Vietnamese and Hispanics regularly walking up to those of us who were alone and white (Never when we were in a group) and punching us in the face for no reason.

 

This is typical ethnic posturing and it is sad that they feel like they have to win the approval of their peers by proving how tough they are by assaulting people and disregarding the law.

 

With that said, look at the numbers from the Pitt game, if those three had not played Pitt would have had no offense at all.

 

 

I hope these guys played in their last game last week and will always remember the crushing triple overtime loss to ND as the end of their football career.

 

Unless, of course, they are simply not guilty of the crime, in which case I wish them the best and hope they stay away from these situations going forward.

How would Pitt have done without Ray Graham? So happy we won.

Theo and Ray G both from Jersey both know one another being the top 2 RB's in the state their SR season by most accounts the difference is Theo has some class and brains would never do something like that mainly cause alot of his Family and Friends are White. That surprises me about Ray G but I guess U can take the kid out of the Ghetto but not the ghetto out of the kid.

wow is all i can say...please excuse my language this one time...but this is complete and total bullshit that they got away with this...as said before if this was notre dame the crap would have hit the fan and people would be calling for heads to roll...classless idiots...

Exactly. He was finally healthy. He looked sharp, at least on the field.

U think the WHITE players on the Pitt team are happy about this. A few of Pitts Lineman should do the same to them and see if they like it.

Was at a bar last night and had a friend describe how he was walking down the street when a huge, man walking down the street punched the guy in the face in front of him and kept walking without missing a beat. I had never heard of this, so this article was interesting timing. There are some crimes I can understand how a human can get themselves into a situation (theft, drugs, etc.), but something like this just baffles me. It's just plain sad...

 

On a side note - did you notice that the article references on of the accusers having a vampire-related class with Pitt's Street? A class on vampires - really?

That's why I work out and carry a gat.

good football players but as human beings they are a piece of shit. hope they get everything that is coming to them, hope it was worth it. enjoy spending your life in prison instead of a career in the NFL. if guilty their life will be finished and the book on them written.

It sounds really awful, but let's keep from rushing to judgement. Judging from the rest of the articles on that "news website" WND seems to be a pretty far right-wing reporting website. Maybe the fact that the police reports, which simply state everything that the police were told at the time and through interrogations didn't mention a lot is because it didn't happen. The author took a lot of liberties and jumped to a lot of conclusions that weren't necessarily backed by the interviewee.

 

In fact, the "news" author didn't actually interview any of the victims and didn't quote them once. He merely interviewed someone who watched the game.

 

Seriously. Punching someone on the street is uncalled for. However, let's not rush to judgement that this was a racist attack merely because an author who writes solely about what the paper calls " a nationwide trend of skyrocketing black-on-white crime, violence and abuse" says it is since it so perfectly suits what he wants to write about.
