Suddenly the mother letting her daughter ride on top of the car doesn't sound so bad.... The Clincher: Alabama Father Pleased Daughter's Domestic Dispute Won't Interfere With Football Season - Alabama Crimson Tide - Deadspin Alabama linebacker Courtney Upshaw and his girlfriend both agreed to dismiss charges filed against the other after a lover's spat this summer. No one is more excited about this than the girl's father who exited the courthouse shouting, "Roll Tide!" A little background Father Chooses Alabama Football Player Over His Own Daughter In "Lovers' Quarrel" - Alabama Crimson Tide - Deadspin Campus cops apparently witnessed some sort of scuffle between Upshaw and Kendall Grzyb, a 19-year-old U of A student, so they hauled the two lovebirds in for a night in jail. But Father of the Year Dave Grzyb is operating under the assumption that his own child is the one who should be blamed. I hate to see this guy get in too much trouble because I honestly think it was probably initiated by my daughter. I don't think he laid a hand on her. He just tried to restrain her to keep from getting hit again." Yeah, that's probably what happened. You know how women are, right? Or maybe Upshaw "chase[d] down Grzyb" and then "grabbed [her] by the back of the neck and hair with his right hand and pushed her downward in what appeared to be an attempt to push her to the ground." Because that's what the police report says. So maybe we should go with that one? To be fair, Grzyb did slap Upshaw first and then storm off after seeing him talking to another female. (Dames!) And she's probably stronger than a Division I linebacker—he's only second string!—so clearly he had to chase her down and defend himself. What concerned father wouldn't throw his own daughter under the bus to protect a helpless football player in that situation?
If only the fathers of LSU girls had their priorities straight. If the Dad of the girl that Cecil Collins assaulted had talked his daughter out of pressing chages Collins mught have played another year or tow and maybe Jerry DiNardi would still be the coach o::cuss::angry::angry::cry::dis::dis:
gee, thanks dad. i will say i have known men hit by their wives/gf's and they did end up having to defend themselves. happens more often than you think. BUT, i dont think a man has to defend himself to the degree this guy went to!!! seems to me this guy went to far no matter what happened. chasing one down isnt exactly "defending". and iknow if it were me, i would want my own father to stand up for me.
What do you tell a woman with two black eyes? Nothing, ya done tole' her twice :wave: But seriously... I thought beating your wife/girlfriend was just a right of passage in good ole Aluhbamuh.
