Is there more to this story???

I'm just saying... What he did in my opinion is just silly and not really an offense that should require you to sit. You have the media saying he should have more time, but I thought 1/2 game was fine for what he did here. I'm thinking something else happened with one of his past offenses.

In light of the ongoing rape investigation being done by FSU, him saying it is much worse than the average athlete who is not being investigated for rape saying it.

To me it wasn't so much what he said

But rather he said something in line with one of his previous alleged offenses.

Either they uncovered something else or they're worried

I don't post very much, more of a reader,but I did here some info on this situation. I don't know this to be fact of course, but my dad has a friend involved in the internal investigation being done by the university. Supposedly there are claims by 2 other women that have come forward with allegations of sexual assault involving Winston. Money hungry, maybe. But it is a reliable source from what I have been told.

Another possibility is that instead of showing the coaches

that he learned his lesson and will be on his Sunday best behavior, he got arrogant about it and forced Jimbo into a corner that no coach would accept. Just my guess.

Comments like this disturb me. If his comments were disrespectful of race there would be rioting going on. However since he "only" disrespected women there is disgust by some and boys will be boys by others. Personally I am outraged and in view of his other difficulties he would be off the team if I was in charge.

Someone who's family member is working on the Winston case just posted a post that said 2 more females just came forward and said they were being sexually assaulted by him. Not confirmed, just heard through a good source.

To quote ESPN's Rod Gilmore "this is a career achievement suspension for him"
This wasn't about what he said standing on a table; this is because he got a pass so many other times and it didn't change his behavior.

Somebody perhaps there's a video of Winston's "speech" and it got loose on the internet. Embarrassed the university, etc.
