It's a mentality that pervades our society. Rather than punish the ones causing trouble everyone has to suffer.Toddstang wrote:Its sad that those who committed no wrong have to pay the price.

It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters. - Daniel WebsterMexican Kerry wrote:Except for Viv.

It STARTED by the smell of money, IIRC she even "pimped out" her 3 daughters throughout that fiasco. Greed makes people do some messed up stuff.WLJ wrote:What about Powell? I mean she committed as much as an illegal act as anyone involved, but she's also the one who stands to profit (money wise) in all of this. If her motive was anything but money why didn't she come clean long time ago? Or was she maybe afraid it would all get hushed up without the publicity of a book. I'm sorry but after listening to her talk I leaning toward it was only the smell of money that brought her out.

That was my problem with it all. She had a lawyer begging the public to believe she was a prostitute and pimp committing plenty of crimes all combined and when the school was saying this can't be true, the whore and lawyer were screaming "nope she is a whore". All the meanwhile all the dumbass public could hear was Rick Pitino or those darn basketball playing teens! Can we also and not as a distraction I might add please prosecute the admitted criminal also? It's like what she did wasn't wrong since the school is involved and she somehow not only gets away with it but gets rewarded with a book of popularity and money from the sales WTMF?????WLJ wrote:What about Powell?

It's a media thingbigelowe wrote:There must be some new, damning evidence that brought this on. I don't recall any school self imposing sanctions upon themselves and getting leniency from the NCAA. UNC has put hundreds of kids through bogus courses, handed out hundreds of bogus diplomas and the investigation is years old. All of which has brought on no penalties from the ncaa. Sooo WTF is uofl thinking???
