    :hihi: :hihi: :hihi: Maybe you should try telling that to your boosters who continuously attempt to shape and influence recruits with gifts and money; to the faculty who continuously attempt to shape and influence test scores; and to your former coach who attempted to shape and influence the prostitute while using his University of Alabama credit card. :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

    It may have taken Miles :milesmic: three times with Odom :insane: but he did eventually get it right. In light of the recent events, I'm not sure a school to our east can say the same thing.

    I say if he doesn't bring his crimes on the field, who cares. If he shows up for practice and can bring it on game day then who the hell cares what he does in his free time. I am so sick a tired of athletes being under a microscope. Look at the Martina Hingis situation with the cocaine in her system. WHO CARES, IS WHAT I SAY! Snort up! Why do they even drug test athletes?
    Look at Britney Spears, once again, WHO CARES! My point is, why we worry about everyone else’s problems. It is like we want people to fail to make our lives seem so much better. Honest, the number one reason why Les will not let Ryan play is because of money. The high dollar Tiger alumni who give the program tons of money cry like babies whenever this sort of thing happens. They don't want LSU to look bad. If the stupid media would leave these kids alone, maybe they could live a normal college life. Come on guys! I used fake IDs before and I have been involved in some bar room brawls. The list goes on and on...with crazy crap. I actually turned out ok. These are such minor crimes. I know he is a trouble maker but hell so are allot of other kids. The media could have left out the fact that both Odom and Perilloux have babies on the way. See that is what the media does. They love to add fuel to the fire. These are details that could be left out. Ryan has to realize, he is no longer a civilian. He can't do what normal people do because he is basically famous. As long as he can stay away from murder and dog fighting I will be happy. :lol: I have a feeling Ryan will be dismissed from the team before his senior year.

    well, you went a bit too far with that post. but i agree somewhat. clm should suspend for violating rules pertaining to fball (eg, missing practice), brpd should arrest for breaking city laws and lsu should discipline for breaking school policy. i think clm goes too far in crossing the lines that separate these entities. not that i care much about it---he is the man, you know.

    Can you tell me how he broke any laws? He was not charged with anything. What school policy did he break? Maybe I misunderstand your post.

    He broke policy that Miles has set for the team, and that was the reasoning behind keeping him out of practice, ALONG WITH being a damn distraction.

    I would bet a case of beer that he gets into some kind of trouble this weekend while the team is away.

    Oh and just because Charges WERE NOT filed by the Varsity DOES NOT mean that there was NO evidence of him doing anything wrong.

    I find it kind of funny that the ONLY thing Odom was charged with was at a time when RP was not anywhere near the action.

    It is one funny scene to watch Rome and Everette. I hated Rome then. What was it, 15 years? He has grown and I like to listen to him now. He has a good reputation. I think the Everette event was cheap on Rome's part. I don't see him doing something like that again.

    I will take that bet. If RP does not get into trouble this weekend you owe me a case of beer. If he does I owe you one. The exchange is to occur at the Arkansas game.

    I want Dixie.

    I'll take the bet as well. And since I live forever and gone from you, I'll just drink the case, so I win!

    Sh!t hot!
