News comin' atcha

Hardy and girlfriend back on best of terms!

IU wideout James Hardy and his gf are, like, totally back together! So, James, well, he got really mad at her because like, James said, "She was all up in my face." But now they are copacetic and his girl wants him back after explaining that a misdemeanor charge of battery was "a misunderstanding."

So goes the story out of Fort Wayne, IN according to the AP. Hardy's female friend testified at a hearing that the whole thing was "a big misunderstanding." Anywho, Hardy still will face trial for the charges in August, but it seems as though the couple of lovebirds be cool?

Sober PSU student sure has some 'splainin' to do

Oh to be 19, carefree and on the field of Beaver Stadium after the beloved Nittany Lions have vanquished Big Ten rival Ohio State. Yes, it makes a young person want to celebrate in the most acceptable manner for the setting, by tackling and punching a campus cop and then holding the officer in a headlock! Huh? Yep, immediately after last season's 17-10 victory over the Buckeyes amidst a stampede of 2,000 or so other PSU students Nathan Lehman bumrushed campus cop Cyprien Brien, Lehman then punched the officer and held him in "an extended headlock."

Lehman cited being in a "raw emotional state" after a "sour" breakup with his girlfriend and partying in Paternoville for two nights leading up to the game for the inexplicable assault. Lehman is a religious, nondrinking, engineering student (are you reading this Rudy?) who will now have a criminal record.
Far be it for the Captain to ever question a student's reaction following a spirited and crucial Big Ten game BUT my only incident involving campus police and football games was when a campus cop cuffed the Captain after jaywalking along with a mob of other fans exiting Camp Randall. Like our young protagonist Nathan, Rustbelt, was also sober (believe it!) during his encounter with the cop. It went a little differently...

Meanwhile, Lehman has seen his stock skyrocket in the "Most Likely to go Bat fucking Crazy" market.

Samardzija drafted by Chicago Cubs

Pretty sure everyone is aware of this by now but, yes, Notre Dame's uber talented 'Shark' receiver/lheart throb for the ladies/pitcher Jeff Samardzija has been drafted by those hapless Chicago Cubs. Samardzija who is a rather solid pitcher for the Fightin' Irish will be pitching for the Cubbies minor league squad this summer the Boise Hawks. Samardzija who I feel could become the next great white posession receiver of the NFL much in the line of prototypes such as McAffery, Ed, can hurl the heat off the mound at over 90 mph. Plenty more about this story at... The Chicago Sun-Times

tOSU hires new Compliance Director

File this under 'C' for "Closed barn doors after cows got out." But THE Ohio State University has hired a new compliance director-Mr Douglas Archie formerly of the University of Utah. Archie will replace Heather Lyke-Catalano who was relocated elsewhere within tOSU's Ath. Dpt. after not following up on accusations that the foreign kid/reason for in-depth investigation of program, was living for free and getting paid to play bball for the Buckeyes.

If my memory serves me Rome didn't have a compliance director under Nero's rule and that worked out just fine...
