G0EL heard (what he assumes to be totally implausible) that Jeff Lerg took down a linebacker.  Lerg is the goalie who is VERY good.  If true I find it hilarious.  To summarize G0EL's thoughts: 5'6" goalies do not take down 6'2" linebackers.

Check out the (currently) last comment on the scout link.  Some slappy comes in to caution everyone that people are "innocent until proven guilty" and as evidence that we should not assume any assault actually took place he says to look at the "controversy over Eric Knott"

 

You know, the Eric Knott who plead guilty to raping a 13 year old, spent 30 days in jail, then collected his full scholarship from MSU?

Interesting point.  Perhaps none of those football players were involved in fighting with the hockey team.  They may well have an alibi of gang raping a child like Eric Knott!

This whole thing is stupid, anyone involved will get suspended a game or two and that'll be that.  The guy fell and hit his head, that makes it more serious but not that much more serious.  The assault on our hockey team was a hell of a lot worse than this middling little fight.

I'm sure they'll get to the bottom of it by Saturday evening, Sunday at the latest.

Javon Ringer heaved the hockey player out the window while Otis Wiley and Greg Jones pummeled him on the ground. Suspensions all around.
