Exactly JaxVid! I don't "wish" for these type of incidents, but these schools need to stop compromising their academic & overall integrity by dolling out scholarships to street thug "affletes". These schools allow too much control/leeway by the Athletic Departments/coaches. There are plenty of quality student-athletes who deserve these scholarships!Edited by: DixieDestroyer

Saw the mug shots of the three blacks arrested in connection with this murder today.

You'd think Obama would be outraged and call a Football Gate summit to be held next week at the White House, you know, Obama and Biden to toss around the ol' pigskin for a while and talk about what a shame this epidemic of black-on-black violence is in this country, and, hey, let's have some leftover Halloween candy while we're at it.

Nah, blacks committing crimes in disproportionate numbers is something of mild concern, but nothing about which to make a big deal. I mean, it's the natural reaction of an opressed group when they are economically disadvantaged by society due to the color of their skin. 600 years of slavery in the United States of America coming to an end doesn't change things over night you know.

Now, if a black professor gets arrested by a white cop, now that's something to worry about!!!
