The only waste was that the ticket wasn't for an over seas flight.  | |||

The only thing Rasool is sorry for is that his insightful and well thought-out protest didn't work out the way he thought it would. Universities are filled with students who are too stupid to be in universities. | |||

Well, at least they didn't pretend Samir was at KSU to get an education..... This space intentionally left blank. | |||

With rights come responsibilities. I believe the team reserves the right to remove any player for any reason. A team must work together. Mr. Freedom Of Expression apparently isn't part of that.  He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. | |||

Yeah, this was premeditated on the part of Rasool. He probably thought the school, like so many others, would cave and support him. But he did this with intent. Being courtside while he was supposed to be in the locker room, then going and shooting hoops at the time the anthem was still going on. Wonder how he'd like it if people showed up in his mosque during prayer time and started playing ball during that time? And I'd bet dollars to donuts that when confronted, said punk told Mr. Howard to go autocopulate and get out of his face. Once back in Philly, all his homies are probably slapping him on the back and talking about how he showed whitey. _______________________ “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

Thank you, Mr. Howard. The muslim POS shouldn't just be kicked off the team but kicked out of school. Also, just as importantly no one who is an American should be patronizing anything that has players that cannot be trusted to come out and stand for the anthem. Staying in the locker room because you are a bunch of clowns is as disrespectful as kneeling or playing with a bouncy ball. Screw them. | |||

If they are not going to stand to show respect for the symbol of our country and our freedom, it is probably better that they stay out of sight in the locker room. I agree with you 110% when you say "Screw them." הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Hope the NCAA gets a clue from the NFL and nips this in the bud. I would assume that taking a scholarship away is easier than firing a union player. _____________________ Be careful what you tolerate. You are teaching people how to treat you. | |||

This activity will likely continue on all levels until such a time that a Conservative billionaire starts putting out the money to fund protests of the NCAA, the NFL, the ACLU, and all of the others that passively support this type of behavior. That is the only way. | |||

If I were a Booster member, I'd be piiiiiiiiiiissed!! As Krazeehorse stated, fortunately it's much easier to control this recalcitrant behavior at the collegiate level, as you have those Boosters and Alumni that could potentially cease and desist all monies and contributions should the administration NOT make an effort to get control of this crap...and fast.

The NCAA has never had a clue. They are as liberal as they come. They will support black lives matter, they are anti-gun, and will support any anti-flag sentiment. | |||

The man who confronted the anthem protestor has been booted out of the booster club despite being a member for 32 years. The college's attorney sent a real douchey letter (see bolded part):

God bless people like Mr. Howard!!!
So now they play the religion card? Was this his first game EVER? How convenient. Fuck the ACLU and this mooselimb douche nozzle. -------- After the game, the King and the pawn go into the same box. | |||

Isn't this the same ACLU that has sued many schools because their players would go out on the field and pray before a game? _______________________ “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

He didn't 'refrain' from anything. He left his team and went out by himself in an act of protest against the Anthem. refrain [ri-freyn] verb (used without object) to abstain from an impulse to say or do something (often followed by from): I refrained from telling him what I thought. Nice try ACLU. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Rasool Samir looks angry. Perhaps he's angry because he's "entitled" to so much more than he's being given. Anger fuels resentment... and leads to violence. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

That is incredible. How the hell do they think this will play out for them? Hint - check out the NFL as you're watching sponsors/boosters scatter from their support. AD contact info You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||
