I saw this in USA Today next to the JR article: http://www.usatoday.com/sports/columnist/brennan/2006-09-13-preps_x.htm
It's the world we live in. It isn't going to change. As long as some thug can throw, catch or run we will continue to have schools look the other way in the name of "giving him a second chance" or "we all make mistakes". Problem is they never learn from them. What's the new saying now? You can take the boy out of the 'hood but you can't take the 'hood out of the boy? This guy will never amount to anything because he will wind up in trouble again.
