Some traffic violations and misdemeanor pot possession? Yeah... He's a real bad kid deserving of a possibly career ending injury!

I never said he deserved what happened to him. I said that I don't feel sorry for him.

It seems to be more than "just traffic violations and misdemeanor pot possession" if Florida State dismissed him from the team. Because I'm fairly certain it wasn't for "just a few traffic tickets". Maybe he has an attitude problem and doesn't follow the rules? Who knows, but the point is he had an opportunity with a great school and pissed it away because he wanted to do things his way instead of doing what he was supposed to do. For that? I don't have any sympathy for athletes who waste their talent and opportunities to commit crimes (yes, even the small misdemeanor ones!) I see high school athletes on a daily basis and for the few that make bad choices, it irks me to see them waste their opportunities like this.

On the same token, I have seen high school athletes rise above their peers and do what is right because they want to succeed and appreciate the opportunies given to them. And for that, I applaud and support them 100%.

Am I glad that this kid got hurt? No, I am not. Do I feel sorry for him? No, I don't.


**Obviously, I'm not the only one that feels this way. Did you read some of the comments posted at the bottom of the article? **

Reading the comments section on sites like ESPN or SI are something I would hope most try to avoid, as it can lower a person's IQ. Nothing but a peanut gallery.

That's not a bad bet. I think Alabama is going to win, but it's going to be close.

considering how they've handled Big10 teams I wouldn't take it. Going back to 2002 of the 3 big10 games they've played they'd have covered.

I bet the payout is insane if he wins lol

You might be right. The past two seasons Alabama crushed Penn St. in early season matchups.

2011 - Alabama beat Penn St. 26-11 in Happy Valley when PSU was ranked #23.

2010 - Alabama rolled Penn St. 24-3 in Tuscaloosa when PSU was ranked #18 nationally.

Just about every year Alabama plays a quality non-conference game against a top-25 team early in the season and destroys them.

I think this year's Michigan is a much better team than last year's Penn State. I also think this year's Alabama isn't quite as good as their team last year.

You might want to relook at your usage of the word karma then, because most people tend to look at it as some kind of justice for past deeds.

He was likely kicked off due to marijuana usage, just like the honey badger and LSU.

Boooooo... Go Knights. I do think the spread is high on that one at around 24 points. I'll go with UCF by 15.

They would have covered almost x3 vs. MSU in that bowl game, also I've not seen enough from Robinson to prove he can play in a huge game and deliver. Sure he can run for 200 against the crap teams, even pick up a couple close wins vs. teams like ND, but this will be on another level, and I just don't see them keeping it that close (at least not for 3 million lmao).

I wouldn't be so sure about the DL being a weak spot this year. Last years superstars weren't stars until they had to step up and replace the guys that came before them right? There's still a lot of returning talent and some really strong new guys as well. Bleacher Report is saying that this years DL may be even better than last years.

It will be a good game though and I must admit to wishing we were starting off with a cream puff team like Western KY instead of you guys

holy sh*t.

guess skill aren't always genetic. this Jordan Rogers kid (QB of Vandy Aaron Rodgers brother) isn't very good at making solid decisions. two bad sacks and a HORRID across his body / across the field pic which led to a 20 second TD drive for SC
