It kills the Cootlumbia media to have Clowney as the bad one

Boyd was speeding. 14 mph over limit vs. 40 mph over limit is a different law broken - Speeding vs. reckless endangerment.

The point is....


Dec 10, 2013, 4:08 PM [ in reply to Columbia media ]

And I have a strong feeling I'm talking to the wall here, but here goes....

Boyd was apparently pulled over BEFORE Clowney. The Columbia media didn't seem to think it was a big deal until their golden boy was ticketed. Then all of a sudden it becomes newsworthy and absolutely MUST be reported.

You can make the arguement that even doing 71 in a 70 is speeding, but there's a reason Boyd was warned while Clowney was ticketed. 110 in a 70 is exceedingly reckless. 84 on many interstates will get you run over (ever been on I-26 on the way out of Charleston on a Friday?)

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Columbia media


Dec 10, 2013, 4:22 PM [ in reply to Columbia media ]

Let's not get ourselves mixed up here trying to say both of them have "broken the law". That is obvious. However the degree is important.

84 in a 70 is a 4-point speeding violation that can be pled down to 2 points and about $75. Half of the country has probably gone 14mph over the speed limit more than once in their life, and these days it's just a hair over "flow of traffic" speed.

110 in a 70 is reckless driving and sufficient cause for arrest, not just a ticket. That's extremely dangerous no matter the situation and shows no regard for conditions, other drivers, etc. I doubt more than 5% of the population of the country has gone 110mph in a car (I know I haven't, and I have a lead foot).

I don't think getting pulled over for going 110 in a 70 is particularly newsworthy, much less deserving of ESPN headlines/commentary by the talking heads. I do, however, think it's exceedingly stupid. Not to mention it reflects on what Clowney thinks both of himself and of other people around him.

Dec 10, 2013, 4:18 PM

Both of these "stories" are complete "non-stories" and are simply lazy attempts at grabbing readers & viewers between the end of the regular season and the bowl season. Who cares how fast Clowney, Tajh, or anyone else was driving? They can pay their fine and go about their lives like anyone else.

Is this what sports journalism has become, worrying about a few college kids with traffic tickets? I suppose that's the end result when ESPN has devolved to TMZ Sports

Dec 10, 2013, 4:34 PM

Public safety is a legit concern, but would you honestly care if it wasn't someone in the public eye? If you were watching the evening news, and every night they started listing off the countless folks around SC who get clocked going absurdly fast speeds every day, would you watch? No. You'd change the channel like everybody else would, because it isn't news.

Re: Celebrity has it's perks and it's draw backs


Dec 10, 2013, 11:39 PM

Do you think anyone would care if he wasn't a celebrity?

Once upon a time I got a ticket on I-26 on my way back from a Citadel vs Furman game (Citadel lost 30-17). This was back when the speed limit was 65 (not 70). There was a young woman there who asked to speak with the highway patrol officer who wrote her the ticket before we spoke with the magistrate. The SCHP officer how fast she was the ticket was for and she replied, "108". She wasn't arrested for it and none of us ever heard about it.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

"Stalwart universities—Harvard, Princeton, Yale—most certainly offer status. The Citadel offers character. "


Sorry but 110 mph should be everybody's business.
