Blount
I know this is off topic, but Oregon is considering re-instating running back Legarrette Blount. As we all know Blount is the football that punched a Boise State player after they defeated them. DO you guys think that this is the right decision. I wonder how much impact sport journalist had on him potentially becoming re-instated. Many sport journalist argued that Blount did deserve the rest of the season suspension and many of us agreed. I believe the pressures of sports media led Oregon to reconsider their punishment.

I think this is the right decision to re-instate Blount. After reviewing all of the tapes and sort of stepping back and looking at the whole situation, I still believe that the initial punishment her received, the suspension of the season, was harsh. You can see many antagonists in this situation and you know things were said or done that boiled over and went unnoticed. Although I do believe his actions were wrong, I think he deserves a chance to be reinstated.
ReplyDeletePlus Tony Dungy is on his side, therefore it is a shoe in that he will be reinstated now. He seems to be the savior these days.
