What's the irony here? How about "obvious"?
 
2003-11-09 12:37:03 AM
I think the slightly ironic thing is that he's an athlete taking a phys ed class.
They got rid of the sports & exercise science major & minor at my school so athletes wouldn't have a cakewalk major anymore.

Perhaps it's 'ironic' because he is very good at the position of tailback for his team -- and for that you need to be in somewhat of a good shape.

But then I don't watch college football. He could possibly be a lazy lard ass and fail PE for that. In that case, it'd be 'obvious'.

I bet he's on the phone to his lawyer as we speak.

Given that it's Clarett, maybe a "meltdown" tag would be more appropriate.

It'll really break my heart to never see him wear #13 again. Yup. Total heartbreak.

I will point out that the buckeye team captain is a Molecular Genetics major.

Clarett's douchebag. GO BUCKS!

Leahrostova, do you not have communications? That's what our athletes take
 
2003-11-09 12:58:17 AM
Hibbert: [chuckles] Your playing days are over, my friend. But, you can always fall back on your degree in ... [reads chart] communications!? Oh, dear Lord!
Lubchenko: I know! Is phony major. Lubchenko learn nothing. Nothing! [cries]

Clarett has already filed suit against OSU, hasn't he? I would think that racism would be out of the realm of accusations if he won't even attend an African Studies class.... Talk about a guy who farks up every which way he turns...

Clarett's career in the NFL will be somewhere between Sean Salisbury's sorry excuse for a career and John Doe's. Who's John Doe? Exactly.

is majoring in Communications....

Hmmm... maybe I can earn an M.R.S before leaving school?
 
2003-11-09 03:33:38 AM
Needs to maintain a "D" in at least 5 credits this quarter?

So what is this about the NCAA and OSU having high academic standards?
 
2003-11-09 08:19:05 AM
I'm in grad school at OSU. If I hear that farker's name one more time, I'm going to combust.
 
2003-11-09 08:25:15 AM
NO THATS NOT IRONIC ITS NOT IRONIC NOR OBVIOUS BAAAAAAAAH THE ONE UP MORE IN THE PAGE IS TAKE NOTES YOU BASTERD WHO POSTED THIS ITS NOT THAT HARD WHY CANT PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHAT IRONY IS
 
2003-11-09 10:36:14 AM
Clarett's a big, flaming pussy. Well, and so is OSU for that matter.
 
2003-11-09 11:00:11 AM
I think he is a f*cking A**hole. He is trying to ruin the ncaa.
 
2003-11-09 11:14:06 AM
This kid is a douchebag.
 
2003-11-09 11:45:44 AM
I'm a Buckeye and Clarett is a fool, no doubt. HOWEVER, he's not alone in his delusion. Seems to me that his mother, Jimmy Brown and his a$$hat lawyers aren't doing anything to get his head on straight.

Maybe he can get a job polishing LeBron's hummer...

Other than the fact that he put the Bucks in a really difficult position this year for no reason, I don't have anything against Clarett. He's a gifted player and it's sad to see him throwing his gift away.
I hope that he can mature at some point and learn the meaning of self-sacrifice, teamwork and humility. It's a big lesson, and who knows how long it will take him to learn it, if he ever does.
It seems like he is lacking in intimate relationship types to hold him accountable. His mom seems to be an enabler. And I have it from an inside source at OSU (prominent in the athletic department) that he listens and seems to acknowledge what he's being told, but just goes out and does the opposite. So it just sounds like immaturity.
But, who knows...maybe he can just join LeBron's posse and get along that way for a few years.

First of all, Clarett is not a tailback at OSU. He has been removed from the team. He is just a student now, and apparently not a good student.
Clarett is a waste of talent.

GO BUCKEYES!!!

Clarett should go play with Kellen Winslow Jr. at Miami. They can biatch and moan in the locker room together.

The asshats.
 
2003-11-09 02:27:13 PM
Clarett is a douchebag but Ruin the NCAA? They have already done that long before Clarett played..
 
2003-11-09 03:15:07 PM
hwah - this is ironic, becuase it is the opposite of what you expect.
 
2003-11-09 04:01:33 PM
Clarett is such a farking douche bag. And by the way, OSU SUCKS!
 
2003-11-09 06:38:32 PM
I find this whole dilemma quite entertaing... how many athletes at every other university get "help" in classes, I know they do at my school. And being from Ohio, I'm so sick of this story... let it be.

OSU all the way!
 
2003-11-09 06:48:39 PM
If he's NFL material he might as well dump college and move on. If he isn't he should change his major to Janitorial Studies.
 
2003-11-09 10:07:32 PM
As a die-hard Ohio State fan, it hurts me to see his talent going to waste. If he would have stayed out of trouble, OSU would be undefeated and on an Oklahome-like pedestal right now.

What a farktard.
 
2003-11-09 10:21:59 PM
...not if one of those other guys had jumped on the ball. Again, Maurice cain't do everthang.
 
2003-11-10 08:40:02 AM
buckethead. he and winslow should go pound sand.
 
2003-11-10 10:19:13 AM
BoozeItUp - you're talking about football players and basketball players, not athletes in general. Trust me. Those two sports have been completely corrupted (even at small time programs) but athletes in every other sport have to be big boys and girls and take care of themselves.
 
2003-11-10 12:49:02 PM
For everyone saying that Ohio State sucks.....talk to the ring.

Clarett is a dumba$$. He has horrible people advising him. C'mon - Jim Brown? Here's a guy that served time for beating his wife. Good advisor. The kid is going to be a washout. He should practice asking "Would you like fries with that?"
