Thugs

[bobcat1]

What? You are kidding! I have never heard of a Longhorn being in trouble with the law.

[regaleagle]

It's just a different society now. Back in the Earl Campbell days when I was at UT, they let alot of this kind of thing slide...not only at UT, but every school nationally. Young men at college are gonna party and get rowdy, even in today's hardened justice system. You just can't expect any leniency from the law nowadays, end of story. It will take some maneuvering after the fact to find relief, regardless of your standing, politicians included.

[defense51]

A rather minor incident in my opinion.

[Old Tiger]

Player being arrested is ut being one step closer to being back!

[Ville-D]

Weak.

[Emerson1]

About time they get some swagger back.

[Lion70]

I can't fault them for not leaving.

Have you seen what happens to texas fans when they run out in the street?

Thugs

Thugs??? You gained that from them refusing to leave an establishment? That's real gangsta right there. I think their next crime should be running red lights and stop signs. That would be a step up.

The word "thug" is the most overused word on this forum.

Like I always say, Gotta love small town Texas.

You must not read enough topics to know that the word "Thug" is used in a joking manner to mock those who use the word "Thug" out of context.
That was the case here.

[Emerson1]

Racist

[LIONS#1]

fools who live in glass houses use thug way too much!!:vrycnfsd:

[Lion70]

Racist

I think he was being sarcastic :crazy1:

wow - some 20 year old guys getting rowdy in a bar.. Imagine that.. JEEZ - I have no doubt there is probably more to the story but based on the facts presented - sounds like a non-story to me..

[Emerson1]

race card really.....
If this was Blake Gideon and Case McCoy it wouldn't have even been a story.

[Lion70]

To act like that is dumb no mater what color they are..

[Emerson1]

According to coach only black people do that.

[Lion70]

fair enough I can see why folks would be upset at that comment. I would hope these guys would be a little smarter than that.

Oh ok. Kind of like our overused word on Smoaky...."classless". If your team beats another by more than 25 points your coach has no class.

[Old Tiger]

Oh ok. Kind of like our overused word on Smoaky...."classless". If your team beats another by more than 25 points your coach has no class.i find you to be a thug with such a classless post

[ctown81]

Old Tiger, I didn't even read your comment but THANK YOU for posting it and the men in the office said thanks too.

[toddg]

leave Blake out of this discussion, he wouldnt act the fool, in the first place!

[Old Tiger]

leave Blake out of this discussion, he wouldnt act the fool, in the first place!Plus he eats at crappy places like Dennys

[ctown81]

I can see why you would see this story as racist but I have another theory. At some point someone taught a class on how to keep your kids off the news after they do something stupid but "conveniently" someone forgot to send the memo to the black parents.

Personally I think it's a conspiracy.

Don't ask a white person about this class b/c they were trained to deny it.

[ctown81]

leave Blake out of this discussion, he wouldnt act the fool, in the first place!

Mr. Gideon?

[ctown81]

To act like that is dumb no mater what color they are..

I'm not sure about that one and it has nothing to do with race. We need to know more of the story. Oh well, guess the story is a result of a slow news day and our discussion about this is a result of no football.

[Old Tiger]

fine for this citation is no less than $1 and no more than $200.


Class C misdemeanor = same as moving violation

[defense51]

fools who live in glass houses use thug way too much!!:vrycnfsd:
They also use a ton of Windex!

[Eagle 1]

LOL....Right

[coach]

I havent heard blake gideons name this much since he dropped that ball at tech lol


And I want to sincerely apologize for my idiotica and racist post about thugs. I hope not to upset anyone....

[jason]

who cares, as long as they are on the field this fall....

[RoyceTTU]

who cares, as long as they are on the field this fall....

thats wut mack is sayin.....

[coach]

i heard mack might lock them in a closet as punishment

[Z-RO]

I read that no tickets were written and no charges will be filed, so really whats the issue here?

[RoyceTTU]

that works well once your redy for retirement

[Old Tiger]

I read that no tickets were written and no charges will be filed, so really whats the issue here?its tough being black?

[Buckeye1980]

Failure to Obey a lawful order = Class C Misdemeanor or what most of us refer to as a ticket.....come on people, this is not even news! Has anyone here never recieved a speeding ticket! (or could have if been if caught!)

[LIONS#1]

These guys ordered a Pizza from Rogelio's on east 6Th when the cop said move along and they told the cop that they were waiting on their Pizza and wasn't leaving until they had it!! Plus they had words several minutes before with another group of guys which prompted the cop to their Pizza location......no real news here..just a cop with a chip on his shoulder and some mouthy kids!!

Obviously. And we also know that when Old Tiger actually gets a REAL girlfriend, he will have to take down his GOTM pics and vids.

Good to know you were right there on the scene and know just exactly what happened

[Old Tiger]

Good to know you were right there on the scene and know just exactly what happenedMy guess would be he talked to kenny.


Rogelio's has awesome pizza I applaud the players on their taste.

[1st and goal]

Mack says there will be "internal discipline".

[Eagle1]

Hasn't Vaccaro had problems in the past. What was the deal on his senior year at Brownwood? Why would Texas take a guy like that usually they stay away from guys like that.

[eagles_victory]

Overrated.

Do you know him personaly? I do. The kid is not perfect by any means but unless you know his whole story you are an ass for judging him.

[LionKing]

Overrated.Not according to NFL defensive coaches and scouts.
