Geno Smith arrested for DUI

[Marshal Dillon]

I don't expect CNS to announce what his suspension will be unless he is dismissed from the team which I doubt. I expect the "we are handling this internally and he has some things he needs to do before we can come back to the team" type answer. Then I look for a two game suspension unless he has been in the doghouse before and I do not think he has.

I agree with this. I think Saban puts his foot down after previous embarrassing episodes by other players.

No one here is condoning what the young man did or trying to "give him a pass."

However, some of you have a tendency to be unforgiving based on life lessons that you've learned in your 40, 50, 60 or however many years on Earth.  Point being, we were all once 19 and not as wise.  Most of us learn lessons the hard way...not by our elders telling us about lessons they've learned.

I tried that approach.

Yep, been down that road. It worked with one child, not as much with the other, but he may have grown up at the age of 21.

Well my dad had a recipe for this foolishness. No he didn't take me behind the wood shed, he did his teaching in the living room. He took a belt to my sitting down place by the it quit burning I was crying "I will make better decisions." I have prayer for all the children I can because we all know they need it. RTR!

My dad helped me make good decisions by making his expectations clear, explaining why they were important, and by being the kind of dad, through his sacrifice and example, that I would not want to disappoint.

Likely better than wolves dressed as nuns.

Well, if you read the book, that's also part of the complexity.

well , get ready for the flood of barner and corndog complaints

they were already saying since McNeal was kicked off the team for
weed possession that is not a danger to peoples lives like DUI is
that the least that should happened is Geno be booted too .
same with lsu , hitting a guy in a bar isn't as bad as DUI either .

well some of that might be right except ...
this weed that's around now days is a hundred times stronger than
it was back in the day , three or four hits off a blunt of some dank or
medical grade guess what , you can barely walk , you're slobbering high and
driving is very much impaired . we won't even talk about that
fake crap they are smoking that makes your brain bleed and
want to eat human flesh ...

and I'm not even gonna mention texting while driving

We should tell these highly minded folks that these kids and I mean all of them need prayer and football is a game. If playing helps them or not I leave to the coaches but if kicking off team and no education is right, then what do say? RTR!

we got into that discussion yesterday on the show
what if you know that kicking the kid off the team means the end for him ?
or what if the kid was the coaches son ? would you still kick him off ?
my suggestion was to get ALL the facts first and not compare to three
situations to each other ... they are all different

if CGM wants to kick his player off then that's his choice
as it was CLM choice to do what he did  ...
CLM can go back and suspend his guy still if he wants to ...
CNS gave Geno one game ... end of story ,
but it won't be for the cry babies
