Around SBN: Two Minutes Of Thunder Basketball Wins The Game

We know that Pete Carroll is a forgiving sort when it comes to the Facebook-displayed racism of his players, but his style has apparently not rubbed off on his peers. Coach Brown dismissed one of his players from the Texas program today, following the player's not-so transcendent Facebook update regarding this week's election result (use the title link for details; I will refrain from posting the exact phrase, but to summarize his suggestion that the off-season hunting trip be relocated to the nation's capital).

Wait until the player gets hurt, then suspend him for the duration of his recovery?

He’ll run laps around the perimeter of the field and LIKE IT. That’ll teach him.

Well, Good For Coach Brown

Backup or not, I’ll bet this move hasn’t made him extremely popular with some Texas fans.

Regardless

He had to kick that kid off the team…for his own safety…that kind of thing can kill a team. Remember the black armband situation with our 1998 team? That wasn’t nearly as divisive…

But hey, what do I know. I’m just the 800 lbs bruin in the room.

I'm Sure You're Right About That, Tasser

Also, I was thinking about the reality that the comment actually conveys a real threat to the safety of the President-Elect, and the Secret Service takes that very seriously—there are no “jokes” or “pranks” any more when it comes to this type of thing.

Those guys will immediately transfer to justsc

There is always room for them in justsc’s own “White Nation.” What a perfect fit!
