Quote:If you took time to read the article you would discover they only polled 10 schools. I imagine the numbers would be similar across the board if it had been done for every school. You mean to tell me athletes get away with more than the normal citizen??? How shocking this article is. It's sad but it happens and not just with athletes.

 

It sounds like you're saying that its ok, that some people play by a different set of rules than others.  Access to a lawyer is great and they should get that, but when cases are brought to trial or a certain set of people are notified of an athletes involvement in a crime that really have nothing to do with seems to go against the intention of the law.

 

When someone is scared to go the police or threatened if they do because someone is a college football player, something more needs to be done.  Everyone wants their team to win, but at what cost?
