I'd be surprised if he wasn't given his walking papers.

I saw that on Sport Center this morning, but I never caught why he was so angry to begin with.  Do you know?

I don't know what Hout said, but, -5 yrds. on 8 carries for the "star" of the Oregon offense surely didn't ease it.

I'd say that fact probably had a bit to do with it.  Blount shouldn't be given his walking papers for that--he should be thrown off a cliff into the Pacific Ocean by his teammates.  Every time that Oregon plays this year, whether or not Blount is on the team, someone on the other team will bring it up and attempt to use it against the Ducks.

It's all over CNN Headline News.  They're using it as an excuse to ask "is sportsmanship dead?"  Bunch of lame reporter weenies.
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

Sad. He's like Maurice Clarett now. (minus the talent)  :evillaugh:

Any bets on how long it takes Blount to land himself in jail? Over/Under is 2 years.
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

I'd have to go with the under.
He'll stay on the juice, hoping against hope for the Escalades and white chicks of the NFL, so he's sure to
have repeated attacks of 'roid rage.

And what he'll get is either the CFL or NFL Europe.

Another Lawrence Phillips.

It's a shame he only got suspended. He needed to be banned.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.
