Just a fun comment on "The Bear"

Can't say I always agree with Fiutak, but this was a fun comment that should raise some blood pressures in the Crimson Camp:

Q: If Reggie Bush is guilty of working with a sports marketing agency and received improper benefits when he was still a Trojan, should USC forfeit any wins?

A: Do you really want to go nuclear and open the Pandora’s Box of taking away past achievements for something as silly as working with an agent? Forgetting the goofy and oppressive rules the NCAA and NFL have in place to keep the continued source of unpaid labor rolling (that’s for another argument), if you want to start picking and choosing what you want to take away from teams based on some transgressions that happened during the glory days, then it would get really, really ugly.

Fine, so let’s start really opening up the investigations and then see how the record books could possibly be rewritten.

Thanks to super-booster Sam Gilbert, you can probably say bye-bye to all ten of UCLA’s basketball national championships under Mr. Clean, John Wooden. You can all but kiss off any national titles under Bear Bryant, and anything of note achieved in the SEC and old Southwest Conference up until about ten minutes ago. How about those Miami national champions that had Luther Campbell hanging around the program? Do you want to take a harder look at Oklahoma and the Barry Switzer years?

Ahh the hyperbole, does this guy have a clue? He makes it sound like this is some unprecedented concept. Umm yeah, it has happened before for a lot less. But its not like they found a cocktail napkin contract or something.

Hey quietfan, it's Memorial Day. But then every day is Memorial Day when it comes to Bammers and the Bear.
