Make up your own mind.

I had a co-worker who refused to type any email correspondence in anything other than ALL CAPS. They said that is how they learned to use email in the military and they were not going to change.

And I assume no post-game "good game" handslaps by the players and coaches? Interesting how basic good sportsmanship gets thrown out the window in the face of this.

Frankly that's his mistake, unless he actually signed some sort of written contract with the institution to that effect. Does a university tell it's scholarship athletes that they will keep them safe from injuries?

Kamala Harris Is a Cop Who Wants To Be (Vice) President https://reason.com/2020/08/11/kamala-harris-is-a-cop-who-wants-to-be-vice-president/

This is all a planned ploy by the DNC to get a woman as POTUS. They know the political and social climate in the USA is still such that a woman probably cannot win a traditional presidential election. So the next best thing is to get a women elected as VP with a President who is at an advanced age, has a history of medical problems, and questions about this mental acuity. It would not be surprising to see Mr. Biden, if he is elected, to retire within his first 4-6 months citing "stress and his age". The leaves the door open for Ms. Harris to be sworn in as this nations's first female POTUS. And a progressive, "law and order" type at that.

There is taking a risk, and then there is reckless. Welcome to the Real World.

So the University of Alabama illegally coerced or forced this left tackle to play?

Good game.

Nice to know the university Presidents are still in control at these major institutions, and not the extra-curricular athletic departments.

Heh heh.

Yes, it's called "life isn't fair" or sometimes "attending the school of hard knocks." It would do today's youth well to learn that.

How will the athletic trainers do their job?

Good luck.

Biden Plays the Catholic Card https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/08/biden-plays-the-catholic-card/

Yes, some people on this forum are exactly that.

I currently reside in Frankfort, Indiana. Many in this community do struggle to makes ends meet. According to the latest Indiana DOE data 78.4% of student are classified as "economically disadvantaged" (I assume this percentage is derived from the number of students on free/reduced lunches and or textbooks). Some have to make the choice between sports or helping to provide for their families. Others may have a secure roof over their heads and food on the table, but little else. A part time job goes a long way to provide those things that the children in more affluent communities take for granted, and allows them the luxury of participating in an extra-curricular endeavor like tackle football. Athletes = rules followers. Non-athletes = rule breakers. Got it.

Good grief. Engage in hyperbole much? Or maybe many of them can get part-time employment in order to pay for their gas, insurance, dates, etc. Or help their parents in keeping a roof over their heads and food on the table.

What would be great, and polite, would be a PM to the offending party stating this very thing. My apologies if I offended any sensitive ears with my words. In the future I will endeavor to use different words when attempting to convey chaos or uncertainty regarding certain matters or situations. I'm sure nobody here has uttered such naughty words while stalking the sidelines of a children's tackle football game.

Dear GID Admins, Thank you for the stealth edit of my posts.

Good luck with that.
