people should really wait for the facts to come out about this situation before they speak

GetALife, that is very sound advice.

However, it appears several posters are simply trying to help things out by expediting the process.

Nope but i see THOUSANDS of drunk fans leave the games every Saturday behind the wheel, and any one of those are not immune to having an accident that could kill or seriously injure someone. Some of those people are posting in this thread. You know what they say about glass houses.

I started drinking when this thread started and have been drunk since. These threads all are the same. Something bad happens. Most people realize a wrong and say let it play out. A couple apologists come out and say nothing bad could ever happen. A few reasonable cats show up and more than a few cat agitators show up. The occasional EWU jerk throws a bomb and leaves. Whatever is going to happen happens and our rants have no bearing on it whatsoever. Time passes and we go on hoping something like it never happens again. Oh, but it does. If it is a griz, see above. If it is a cat, see above except on bobcat nation.

That...is why I started drinking on page one and I will not stop until after the griz/cat game in bozeman. But, I am not driving and I don't have a glass house, so all is well. Cheers. :party:

at press conference Stitt would not take questions about it

What was he going to say?

Maybe he is disappointed that this is what Griz Nation and the state of Montana is reading and hearing about...and assuring he will make sure it is all handled in a manner consistent with a "class" program.

I would venture to guess that it was not Stitt's decision as to whether or not to field questions on the situation...especially since the SID began the press conference stating that Stitt would not answer any questions on the subject...

And who said that "nothing bad could ever happen?" Nobody. It's just stupid. And that's what makes these threads genuinely stupid.

People are always anxious to "teach someone else a lesson." It's like somewhere along the line, someone put John Calvin in charge of schools, athletics, society and that if you can show that society is willing to hurt someone enough for judgment mistakes and youthful stupidity, "breaking them" will somehow send a message to someone else that minor transgressions have absolute consequences even as they watch on TV and see rioters burning and looting stores and getting invited to the White House.

"Three strikes and you're out" laws ended up putting people in prison for life for grabbing a piece of pizza.

"Zero tolerance" policies have similar ridiculous effects.

A vengeful anti-Griz mentality appears to be alive and well on e-Griz where many “so called Griz fans” have jumped to conclusions and recommended severe punishments for the trespassing players (e.g. “send the shitheads packing”, “If I were Stitt, I would dismiss all 3 from the team immediately!!!”, “Boot 'em and don't look back”, “Kick them off the team, Stitt needs to make a statement”, “Boot em, I say no need to hear there side of the story”). These idiots spew such views without facts supporting such punishments or any allowance for hearing of the player’s side of things or explanations.

Were these “so called Griz fans” reared in N. Korea? Have they any concept of “due process” or “innocent until proven guilty”?

PR and /Griz75 and a few others are doing what they can to promote more thoughtful perspectives and reasoned judgement, but too many at this site are vengeful idiots. They can’t defend their rush to judgment, but try to counter other perspectives (e.g., Griz players may only be guilty of stupidity and misdemeanor trespass), by putting words in their opponents mouths and then arguing against things that were never stated in the first place.

This thread should be locked until all the facts come out.
