I usually cover the Chicago Bears in my blog, but I'm also interested in other teams. Ohio State is one that I want to talk about. You might ask why, to me that is a simple question I can answer. But I shall delve into detail about why. But to answer it simply is because I think their punishment is complete and total bull shit.
How is their punishment so? Simple, there were other teams wo have commuted the same crimes as they did, USC is one offender. Remember the Reggie Bush saga? I do. Georgia is another one, remember Cam Newton's father? I do. I could go on with other offenders. Did Georgia get a bowl game suspension? No. Did USC? No. In fact, USC was allowed to keep theory accolades except for the Heisman Trophy that Reggie Bush won. So, why do I think the one game bowl suspension is bull shit? It's because the NCAA has laid down an unjust punishment considering the same punishment should've been laid out for them. Then and only then will I agree the punishment is just.
Not just that but I also didn't see how what those players did was wrong. I wouldn't sell one of my basketball accolades from high school, but they aren't me. If I needed the money and my awards were worth something, I'd probably sell them too. I'm glad Jim Tressel is out as the Buckeyes coach but not because he was a cheater or did something wrong. It's simply because be couldn't win big games, like Urban can. And now, before you go off half cocked and say I say this because I'm a Buckeyes fan, you're wrong, I'm a Gators fan.
I just see an injustice and figured I'd talk about it even if nobody will listen. If you would like to leave me feedback or your own comments, please do so.
