Faux Outrage


An Ohio State fan did a very fair comparison of the media coverage between Tatgate with Terrell Pryor and the recent DJ Fluker news at Alabama.  I dislike a few of these writers (Read: Forde), so it's nice to see their hypocrisy so well highlighted.  Calling it "scandal fatigue" is such a cop-out while Jay Bilas continues to pile on the NCAA every chance he gets.  Also, these sentences could not be dripping with more sarcasm, and I love it.

"Total value of improper benefits for the players involved in Tatgate was less than half of what Fluker alone received.  Surely he was the only one at Alabama. Agents and financial advisors were otherwise shunned by the rest of the Crimson Tide."
