If only some of you knew what your most beloved Griz heros were doing Saturday nights after games. Good grief. Hermanson is the type of guy I want playing for the Griz. Just like the great ones that came before him

When hundredths of a second might mean getting to a ball, making a tackle or missing you can't be drinking like that and be 100%. And yes I know it was a weekend....that doesn't matter....look at research done on how alcohol affects an athlete.... Selfish...

catdaddy7 said:Police often will breath test a "pedestrian" simply to check their alcohol
level and make sure that it's not at a dangerous level especially in college
towns because of binge drinking. Remember that Missoula PD was scrutinized
during the investigation and I'm sure they're leaving nothing to chance as far as
liability, ie. say they don't test him and he dies later of alcohol poisoning or passes
out in the middle of the road etc.

I think the question is why was he even given a breathalyzer if he wasn't driving?
Yeah that is an interesting question. Do the police give those tests for public intoxication tickets?
They try to and you dont have to allow it if you are not driving. The same way you do not need to show ID to a cop unless you are being detained. Cops always want to ask you for your ID and you dont need to give it to them...."just because".

You have lead a sheltered life. Know only one person who has been arrested. Are you also telling us that you know only one person who has gotten a dui? Don't know anyone who has been caught with pot. No one who got in a bar room brawl and got caught. No wonder you have the goody two-shoes attitude. You must not know people who have participated in protest movements. You must be unfamiliar with the earlier days of the labor movement, in Butte, Missoula and elsewhere. Must not know or care about people of color or modern day immigrants. Must not respect people around the world who are protesting for more freedom and getting arrested. Of course, you're the poster who has supported the Missoulian, UMass made a good decision by moving up, and said Will Cherry wasn't a good point guard--so what should we expect.
WTF? How does his post justify him being accused of not caring about people or causes? That seems like an unfair reach to me.
I agree with him, most people should not be proud of being arrested. I've never known anybody that was proud of their arrest record that wasn't a loser. I'm not sure if I buy that he only knows one person that has been arrested. I myself, have never been arrested, but have plenty of close friends that have been that I consider great people.
As far as Hermy goes, he did something stupid and embarrassed himself. He'll take his punishment and will be back better for it. I don't think what he did justifies much ridicule though...
I have him blocked so cant see his posts. Typical PR. He's still pissed I called the UMass move up when he said it would never happen. Of course being related to a member of the athletic department has its advantages. Now to address his attacks...
I said Will Cherry was one of the best 5 players of all time but that his numbers did not suggest he was a true point guard (which they never did), and that he would be hard pressed to make the NBA. Thats 1 for me, zero for him. I never said UMass moving up was a good decision, I said they moved up because the inner circle wanted to become part of the Big East eventually, and develop rivalries with BC, and CT. 2-zip. And yes I support the Missoulian, because creates jobs for many individuals in Missoula, and I feel is a better paper than the GF Trib or the Montana Standard. Not perfect, but the do cover things other than sports....I dont where rose colored glasses. Ordigger 3 PR Zip....I know it frustrates him cause he's never right....lol.
As for the rest of the blather, I do believe he just proved point....considering he's best arrested and all. Maybe my circle is just better, we don't get caught or arrested.
Richard Cranium said:Seems Hermy's adult decision making abilities are as good as his pass coverage last year. It's as simple this, if he would have paid his ticket from speeding, he would not have had a warrant. Had he not had a warrant, the cops may have called the coach or a person in the athletic department to arrange restitution. This is not the crime of the century, hope he learns from it. On a personal note, my 15 year old son got a criminal mischief charge on him 13 years ago for smearing 2 catsup packets on a girls windshield. It was a $115 fine and some community service. Now that is very petty!

Any cop who would arrest a two-year-old is a dick!

Knowing most cops....it was probably everything they could do to get the plastic handcuffs on that kid.
