Yul Lose Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I'm watching the Citrus bowl between Louisville and LSU and when they showed the injury report of the Louisville team the last two players on the list were out because of gunshot wounds. I've watched a bunch of college football games in my life and I think this is the first time I've ever seen that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson won the first Heisman Trophy in school history. Afterwards at a Heisman party in Louisville, Louisville outside linebackers James Hearnes and Henry Famurewa suffered gunshot wounds after a fight broke out. Both are expected to be fine by spring football or soon after, but neither will play in the game Saturday. “We’re very fortunate that we’re not at a funeral right now,” Louisville coach Bobby Petrino said at a press conference Friday. Hearnes, who leads the team with eight sacks, was shot in the elbow. Famurewa, a backup, was shot in the foot and arm. “Both of them are healthy,” Petrino said.

Blackwater 53393 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Most of 'em shot themselves. It may be part of the thug culture that permeates many college teams!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 One of the Alabama players is out because he shot his finger off in a hunting accident. At least that is what one of the commenters said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I have almost completely weaned myself from Pro Sports. NBA and NHL were never a problem so they don't even count. Never watch them. Watched a couple of baseball games last year. I have not seen more than a quarter of any NFL game this year. Strangely enough, I do not feel deprived at all.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I never really gave a rat's patootie about them. But how they set a bad example for the youth, for that I would ban them from sports for life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
