I know we've had discipline problems as of late, but it really irks me to see key players -- indispensable players, actually -- get suspended for games like Florida and Cal. This has happened a number of times in the past and I am just wondering how we balance getting our best guys in the game with managing discipline on the team.

Without getting into too many details, I was the reason a very key player was suspended while I was at UT. As mad as I was about what caused the suspension, I would have rather seen him play, given how much we needed him for a victory.

Whaddya guys think?

Forget actually answering the question. I wanna know what (or who) you did!?

I certainly hope he didn't mean that the way it reads.

:eek:hmy: not appropriate, dude.

true, but i guess i am used to it. i tutored the players back in the day and used to get those types of questions all the time. while i became pretty good friends with some of my students, they shared far too much for me to ever be interested in them in "that" way.

It was a joke, chief.

Sorry if I upset you ksusha.

I'll ask you to remember that my name is not "chief," and I think the rules speak for themselves. I am clearly not a mod, but I am a respecter of the way this board is run.

Nor do I take kindly to being reprimanded by you. VolFreak made a mention of it and that is fine. He runs the place. He can tell me what to do. I apologized (and I meant it). But don't act like you have some moral high ground over me.

Guys this stops now. Take it to PM because I don't want to read the whole act between you two again.

Welcome to the board by the way. It's usually not as chaotic as it's been this week.

Well, as some learn that your avatar pic is actually you, there'll likely be a few choice remarks from some rowdy ole' football fans, but you seem more than confident enough to look out for yourself; wasn't trying to be a digital bodyguard, but I think it's nice to see females around the board, and I guess I just don't want anyone to spoil it? :salute:

Thanks. I LOVE it! As if I needed another place to waste my time, lol! I MUST forget about this board when I have to start billing or else I am gonna get fired before I finish my first three months.

I appreciate that. I love the sports talk, so you'll see me here again. And probably often. As far as the pic, well, it probably does me too much justice. I'm just a girl -- not quite the sexpot that appears in the pic. It was mostly a joke -- a costume I put together in about 15 mins for Halloween last year. There's a little cheerleader skirt and croptop you can't really see in the pic.

Ok I'm sleeping soon, but I just wanted to say once again:

I am very sorry for my inappropriate comment towards you Ksusha. Can you ever forgive me?

Wow I know exactly the suspension. I think, paper plagiarism? 4 players--I think a school and team has to suspend players if they are not behaving appropriately but as far as school activity. I say give them and A or give them more money they have earned it.
