What did the Oklahoma Attorney General say after Joe Mixon shattered a female OU student’s jaw on camera & continued to be a member of the OU football team for two more seasons?
Spoiler: Nothing
Quite the surreal morning in New Orleans today. We got a tour of the Saints and Pelicans facilities.
Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity. Once in a lifetime.
Cecilia and I are deeply saddened by the senseless act of violence in Midland.
We are praying for the victims, their families, and the entire community.
I have been briefed on the matter and commend the swift response from the Midland Police Department, DPS and all assisting law enforcement agencies.
As Someone who Struggled with an Alcohol Addiction I went to Rehab 3 times . I can say the best thing that helped me get through those times was going back to fishing which is what I love to do . As many know fishing usually coincides with Drinking . I’m 7 years sober now have built a small little business , I have a family , I also got my job back in Oil and Gas . I usually keep it quiet what I went through but now it’s good time to bring up . I don’t care what the outside noise is this makes me Proud to be a Red Raider .
I genuinely don’t see the problem.
I’m sorry… I just don’t.
I do see where gambling IS a MAJOR problem - so much so that like…. You’re being naive if you don’t think there are athletes at your school or on your pro teams who are actively gambling. Like, I understand addiction VERY well and I don’t think people realize how much money is being spent or how many people are going down this path… we have a MAJOR mental health crisis looming bc people can gamble from their fucking phones. Families, careers, and life savings are going to be destroyed within a few years and people
are not talking about that enough. 67% of college students are high frequency bettors. 16% engage in the highest risk gambling.
So, I do think it is irresponsible for the NCAA to set this precedent where a student athlete seeks treatment and transfers to a state where sports gambling is NOT legal. It’s the classic criminalization and punishment over concern for mental health and well-being.
The owner of a freakin NBA team quite literally made her fortune off of gambling. Is it ok for an NBA owner to profit off of an upset loss of her own team? If yes, them there should be no problem with a kid gambling and then seeking treatment
I just think it’s really wild to ignore the public health crisis that we are facing, but not preparing for while simultaneously acting like Texas fkn Tech and Brandon Sorsby are the problem.
It’s happening ACROSS college sports.
Texas Tech AD Kirby Hocutt releases a statement re: Brendan Sorsby lawsuit.
"Texas Tech is not a party to Brendan's lawsuit. We did not file it. We did not fund it."
