Their guy needs to be dealt with

Our guy needs to be dealt with

Saying "well yeah we were wrong" means nothing if the kid does nothing to change, so TTL and I feel that just saying "oops sorry" will do nothing to prevent this from happening again. We will always have new members and honestly they arent gonna understand the "true offensiveness" of the word suck and so it might be something for us to look into.
We need to be the example.

People know who we are, and everyone cares about what we say.

People ask all the time "what did they just say?" and then react accordingly.

We are in the spotlight, and we are at a school that calls us to be Champions for Christ.

We can be plenty annoying without breaking the rules set for us, but somehow we seem to, every game.

Deny it all you want, Jon. But you need to man up and accept this, or step down. Leaders are supposed to lead, by example and by using their authority.

If you can't handle telling people not to say things, and manning up when they say something wrong and moving on, pledging to do better the next time, then you can't handle being in charge. Being the biggest guy with the best pranks doesn't make you a leader. Manning up and saying Amos was wrong and we will do our best to keep it clean next time, that's being a leader.

Here's the deal, Bryan: He wasn't given a chance to change. He gave the guy a look he didn't like and was immediately pushed out of the arena. I know Chris well enough to know that he wouldn't have said it again after he was told not to. He wasn't given a chance to not say it though.

Then you guys are wrong. He deserved to be kicked and he was. The guy overreacted a little, but honestly, he doesn't know Chris from Pacman Jones.

Have you tried at all to think from that guys perspective?
A little? Ill even shake my head at that. The guy (according to multiple sources on our side) grabbed a dude and tried to kill BeeJay with him
Whatever, everyone just turn against me.

Amos was wrong, and got what he deserved, end of story.

Like KK said, we are big boys, we can handle someone touching us.

All i can say and all i will say is i've lost a lot of respect for a lot of people tonight. will it stop me from going to games and cheering? no. but what i saw tonight was something i never want to see again. I don't give a rats *$$ about what the heck was said or what was done. wrong was done on both sides. what really upset me tonight was a few of you decided it was more important to get ticked at a stupid facilities guy when we were on the verge of losing a very tight game. your minds were nowhere close to the court. sure i understand you were upset but you freakin get over it and cheer the team on regardless. thats our job as the sixth man. you can argue with the guy after the game. seriously... yea i'm done.

How many times do I have to post it that I told him he was wrong and that I tell people every game that they're wrong before it gets through your effing brain? I mean, really, do you want me to quote every single thing that I've said on here tonight to show that you're a moron by what you just said?

sorry thats flat out wrong man....nobody that is working for this university should every put there hands on anybody unless they are LUPD arresting somebody...its wrong...

I know what they did was wrong...but dude...you don't put your hands on somebody...period....events staff people need to be professional and handle things in a professional way.....if that is what KK said then I just shake my head....

I am not arguing the fact that the kid should/should not of been kicked out...I wasn't there....but in no way should he have had someone put their hands on him....period.

Think what you want. I said what I have to say, and there's no other way to say it.

Read this over once you cool off, and see how you feel.

David, I tried. I really did. The guy came back from pushing Chris out of the arena and got in my face. I told him to sit down because I was trying to watch a game and do my job, and he just kept talking crap to us. I told you that during the game, and anyone around me knows I was trying to participate in the game and not deal with this kid. However, he was up in my face and I couldn't pay attention to the game. Once he finally sat back down at the scorer's table, I went right back to what I was doing before it.

The Vines Center rules are that people who violate the rules will be immediately removed from the Vines Center.

But anyways, I am not saying he was completely right, but the fact that we are up in arms about it is RIDICULOUS.

If Chris got hurt, then fine. But nothing bad happened other than Amos and the rest of the guys pride being hurt. He broke the rules, and got tossed.

The guy might have crossed the line, but lets be men and not little girls.
