I have lost a little respect for the Oregon Ducks

[Schmoopie]

I'm a little late in posting this, but did anyone see that game on Sept 5th between Boise and Oregon? OMG, this idiot LeGarrette Blount, who plays for the Ducks was ticked off by something that Boise player Byron Hout said on the field and proceded to deck him in the jaw. If that weren't enough he started going after the FANS!!! OMG!!!!!

I love how the Oregon coach was saying that when he was talking to Blount he said that they both cried. OMG, what the h**l for? Because he disgraced his team and the city of Eugene? I think it's worse that he went after the fans! I'm surprised that Boise hasn't filed charges against this moron!

They made the right decision in not allowing him to play any more games this year, but it's completely stupid that they are letting him practice with the team. If I were them, he'd be in the stands watching his teammates play!

I'm probably biased but I'm glad that it wasn't one of the Huskies who did this. But it still ticks me off that it was Oregon since I like the Ducks and the Oregon State Beavers as well.

What REALLY ticks me off about this whole thing is that they never tell you how Byron Hout is doing. I'm sure he's fine now, but the media is giving Blount more publicity, which I'm sure makes him happy.

Here's the link and it has a video to it, which starts playing as soon as you click on it.

Yeah, what he did was foolish, and he should have known better, and I think him being suspended for the season was a just punishment. I haven't lost any respect for the Ducks, but just for the player involved in the incident. I don't think I can lose respect for a whole team, based on one persons idiotic actions. I just hope that this kind of **** doesn't become a trend for the Ducks, or they'll become the new bad boy team in Oregon, or else they'll have to change their names to the Oregon Di*ks. It started with the Jailblazers in the late 90's, and early 2000's, and then a few years ago, the Beavers took the Blazers spot, as nearly half of the team went to jail, or had problems with the law in some way. So hopefully this was just a one time thing, and The Ducks don't become the new bad boys in Oregon sports. The Blazers and Beavers gave us enough shame, the last thing Oregon needs is more bad publicity involving their sports teams.
