You are the best conference in football because you cheat better than everyone else. Yay?

And BTW, how fucking ridiculous is the NFL about pot. What a bunch of fucking wankers.

ETA... Reading more stories... Interesting that it took this "hack" to supposedly move him down the board. The shit going on with his stepdad and the apparent lack of control at Ole Miss should've been red flags, gasmask bong or no.

I actually give Tunsil a lot of credit for telling the truth up there when they asked about the texts. I'm so used to everyone always lying in those situations that I was shocked to hear someone tell the truth, even when it could make him look bad.

Considering he was suspended for all those games for SOMETHING, it would have been pretty silly to lie. I assume all 32 teams knew it was for accepting improper benefits even before the draft.

The improper benefits were allegedly from an agent, so the allegations of Ole Miss being directly involved (I believe) throws a new wrinkle into the whole thing. Which is why that was such a big deal.

Of all the weekends to have off from work, I apparently picked the right/wrong one.

The bar is pretty low when you see the headline "Perry Hills Eyes the Starting Job with the Help of Gus Frerotte".
