Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
I am glad he has been exposed and dealt with. He deserves nothing from this University. It's hard to imagine what goes on in the mind of a person who receives a second chance that many people would not give him and then blows it all away for the same exact thing that almost ruined his future the first time.
Any player that has been found to have been involved should be gone. Dantonio should know now that anybody willing to do something like this will not learn from mistakes.
AJ Sturges was clearly very disappointed with the decision to reinstate Winston so i wonder what he thinks about all of this.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
Originally posted by IrishHockeyFan View PostI commend AJ Sturges for his comments earlier in the year when the school and Dantonio allowed Winston back on the team. All too often players in his (AJs) position are "encouraged" to go along to get along, if you know what I mean. I think it actually took some measure of guts on his part to express his real opinion, one that I shared and understood entirely. Here Winston was allowed to play until he got hurt and I believe Sturges has yet to see the ice. What is his status, by the way? Any word on him playing this year, or again, for MSU. Is he able to practice?Last edited by owslachief; 11-25-2009, 06:48 PM.

Originally posted by KC8NIY View PostThat's really, really unfortunate if true. As it is, the whole scenario is nothing but bad. Add in that many football players participating, and there are major concerns.
In all seriousness, if that many players were involved, it will be interesting to see how MD handles it this time. Kicking out Winston, assuming he was involved, was obvious due to his prior. But as for the rest of the gang, MD already set a precedent by allowing Winston back on the field literally fresh out of jail. If 10-15 football players get charged and are found guilty, will he kick them off the team this time or is he going to let them all back the second they are out of jail and hope history doesn't repeat itself yet again? Suspending them for a few games against the likes of Montana State or Florida Atlantic isn't much of a punishment, especially when their suspension is over the following week for a big game against like Notre Dame or Penn State. That makes the punishment look weak. Dantonio kind of set himself up for a bad situation.
I agree with the many that Winston should never have returned, or at least not until Sturgis was able to. I guess I could say I feel the same way about that in hockey in general--i.e. Bertuzzi mugs Moore, one guy's career is over while the other gets to continue playing is not right IMO.
On a lighter note, make sure you pick up one of these for your Sparty friends on Black Friday...

All I know is I have had my fill of the gang mentality of MSU football. I hope MD has had it as well.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
Well i had a dream last night that we were losing some kind of triple team game against Michigan and Miami 6 to 2 to 1 after the first period. Michigan had 6 and we had 1 so hopefully it's not some kind of prophecy for the rest of the year.
Also, does anybody think Jarosz will get a game this weekend? My bet is on saturday.
I also think Wisconsin might be one of the tougher games of the year so far.
Oh also, our scoring has been down the last few games so i think it's imporant that we get back to putting up some pretty good numbers.Last edited by Pirateasaurus; 11-26-2009, 07:11 PM.
