Seton Hall transfer guard Jevon Thomas is accused of choking a grad student at an intramural game. Glad this attention is elsewhere.

Very weird. At my grad school such actions were banned.  I would think it is an NCAA violation. 

My team actually tried to recruit a transfer player to our team the year he was out and was informed it was not allowed.

Funny thing is that he never played a game.  He quit the team after his year sitting out.  He was just using basketball to get a big aid package to get an IVY league education.

You realize, of course, that had you not attended an Ivy League school to prepare for a career in neurology you could be making $500 an hour chasing ambulances?

You obviously do not realize that guys who chase ambulances do not bill by the hour but work on a contingency basis. No matter what school they went to.

So now you've learned something. And its free of charge.

Yikes. 3 ppg, 30 % FG, 20 % 3P, 45 % FT over his two seasons at K-State before being suspended & leaving.

I wish he wouldn't have done this and been an awful replacement for Whitehead. Perhaps they can find a grad PG with his scholarship now (if he loses his)

According to the article, he wasn't playing, he was a spectator at the game.

Well, that explains it then. It is easy as a spectator to get caught up in Rec Center hoops action to the point of violence. As a matter of course the gloves must necessarily come off when Dorm League bragging rights are on the line. 

Nothing expresses a fan's unremitting loyalty for his favorite Rec Center team than kicking an opposing player's ass.

As a Division I player, he had far more ambition, he went for the referee.

No self-respecting Rec Center athlete should be expected to endure the indignities of inadequate officiating. Frankly, to have one's talents trivialized by the untrained judgment of such subpar individuals is too much for any Rec Center athlete to have to endure.

For the love of God some of these men played high school basketball.

According to CNN, another bird has reached its demise, also by over use.

Let's say "virtually extinct," then, i.e. the only people who would get excited about it are geriatric bird watchers... most folks would look at it and think it was some sort of old, malfunctioning animatronic left over from the Country Bear Jamboree.

But boy, I tell you... Country Bear Jamboree was where it was at back in the 70s.  No shame there, but time inevitably, flies.
