Young celebrities are exploited for their mistakes all the time. Not just sports but movie and music celebrities too. Several of them are repeated felons but continue with their normal lives because they aren't getting the publicity Winston is getting. It's funny all the die hard Haters out there. I guess it would get annoying if it wasn't my team. |

mookie45 > You have this "hater" complex about you. No one is hating at all man, I'm simply making a point based on the information available about this guy. I happen to like and respect the FSU program. This isn't about that. I for one accept the criticism about MY teams without going into "hater" mode and blocking out the facts.
And the facts are: 1) Your star QB is a fucking idiot. 2) FSU has struggled a ton this year -- especially against scrub teams. They're NOT as dominant as they were last year. They've marginally won the last 4 games, and if you see how these other teams have been handling business down the stretch, I'd be shitting bricks. They're not the "clear-cut" champs of a year ago. They're not playing their best football at a time when you should be. Again, those are facts that anyone would agree with. It's not -- "hating" -- as you love to throw around. You should at the very least acknowledge that. Back to Winston...everyone knows he's 20. But when does that STOP being a justification/excuse for acting like a dumb-fuck? You above all people, as a fan, should hold him to higher standard and feel a little bit embarrassed. The university should as well, but that's wishful thinking. Tell you what, I wish I had his punk-ass on my team. Last edited by TUN3D; 12-10-2014 at 01:29 PM.. |

FSU has struggled this year, and I have not denied the fact. I still believe we are more than capable of competing with Oregon and Alabama. It's normal for me to defend my team and support them through the thick and thin, right? Like you've stated, Winston is talented and still a highly desired player. |

why do I say it's meaningless? b/c whether FSU wins doesn't affect your life or most people's lives. And certainly the female victim's rape situation is much much more important than any of this. Last edited by Flying Ace; 12-09-2014 at 04:26 PM.. |

I never said anything about Winston getting away with rape and being happy about it. You have misinterpreted once again buddy. The facts were presented in the court of law, and there was no conclusive evidence to charge him or they definitely would have. Rape is a serious crime. I would never downplay a victim of rape. It's ironic how meaningless this is to you when you have devoted so much time to this thread. Thanks for the reputation points btw. Also, FSU football is very precious to me. Maybe you haven't had the opportunity to experience or actually appreciate being a part of a huge football program, not just one player of the game. Being inside a jam packed stadium with 84,000 fans full of energy is life changing. Try it someday if you're actually passionate about the sport, hopefully you comprehend. |

In March 2013, a grand jury investigating police misconduct in an unrelated matter called police supervision “careless, uncaring, cavalier and incompetent.” The grand jury said supervisory deficiencies were so deeply ingrained that the city police, which has more than 350 sworn officers, should merge with the sheriff’s department, with the sheriff assuming overall control. Late last year, Mr. Winston’s accuser and another Florida State student filed internal-affairs complaints, charging that Tallahassee police officers had investigated them, rather than the accused, and then prematurely dropped their cases. “My attorney’s repeated calls to Tallahassee Police Department prove that I had not dropped the case,” Mr. Winston’s accuser wrote in her Dec. 19 complaint. Two days earlier, the other student had written, “Why did the detective insist my case was closed and refused to answer calls and emails?” She added, “I am SO ANGRY!” http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2...ston.html?_r=0 You guys have a police department that obviously defends the most serious crimes conducted by football players. They must be gods. 84,000 fans, been there, done that...though admittedly I haven't attended a CFB game where the attendance was below 100,000 fans...wonder what that's like..., quiet I would imagine.

Again, you refuse to consider the GLARING ISSUE WITH THE SAD STATE OF THE POLIC DEPARTMENT: WHY WASN'T DNA SAMPLES OBTAINED FROM WINSTON, WHEN THE ACCUSER HAS IDENTIFIED HIM AS THE SUSPECT?!?! http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2...ston.html?_r=0 |
