- Perrion Winfrey has been fired from the Cleveland Browns after at least two major scrapes with the law.
- A battery charge with respect to a woman he was dating in April -- Winfrey served a diversion program.
- An aggravated robbery incident this week.
- He also was robbed himself with another Brown last month.
- As well as suspended from last year's Week 2 game by the team for disciplinary reasons.
- Tomorrow is supposed to be the meeting to oust Dan Snyder from the NFL.
- It is becoming increasingly evident we may have to have the entire athletics program at Northwestern University shut down. At least one team of civil rights lawyers now reports they have hazing and sexual violence allegations in both the baseball and softball programs, adding at least a third program to the list. At least two lawsuits have already been filed, dozens more on the way.
- Riyad Mahrez is the latest soccer star to take the Saudi blood money. Heads to Al Ahli after winning four titles at Manchester City in his five years there.
- Fulham's Andreas Pereira appears to be next.
- And yet another example of the only other use of women in sports, other than to grease the killing of transgender people: Italy's RAI broadcasting service had to suspend two of it's commentators at the World Aquatics Championships in Japan for sexual comments about women synchronized divers, basically stating they were all the same height in bed.
- Hey, Bigot Gaines, paying attention, BITCH??

Ken on League of Fans did a write-up about Northwestern: League of Fans: What Can We Learn From the Northwestern Mess?
ReplyDeleteExcept for one thing:
DeleteKen references Dean Smith, and Ken is correct to do so.
Except: This is football, on the largest part. How many of these supposed "men" committed these acts in high school/football camp (and had them committed upon them) as part of "school tradition" to "make men out of [them]"?
This is the dehumanization necessary to go from human being to foobaw man.
Exactly. That's why John Gagliardi of St. Johns (MN. Division III football) didn't do any of that crap. He did things the right (and humanistic) way.
DeleteAs for Smith and Wooden, though, those guys are the biggest cheaters ever. Nobody was talking about Wooden in 1960 as he was on his way out. Now, in 1970, his teams have several National Titles, and he is a genius? I don't think so. Sam Gilbert and the NCAA had a lot to do with that.
Also, I heard that Smith wasn't on the up and up either (neither is the sainted Coach K, for that matter).
As you well know, none of college basketball is. It may well have brought on the NIL/openly-paid players more than college football did.
DeleteAs far as Gagliardi, that's why he probably never left D3, and that's not an insult to Gagliardi.
