BYU OL Ului Lapuaho not suspended. What a punch in the balls.

Submitted by BlueCube on

I tried to come up with so many witty things to say here but lost focus and cringed with each repetition of the punch. Apparently he was likely aware but not fully aware he may be punching the opposing players junk.

BYU announced he has been disciplined internally. No word on if the Boise State player was subsequently suspended for playing with deflated balls.

Speaking of Suh, he was at it again this week.  No word on any fine or suspension yet, but wait for it.

Edit: Checked it out and there will be no fine or suspension since he no longer plays for the Lions.  Honeymoon y'all.  Even though there was pretty clear video evidence he hicked the opponent's helmet off, the NFL would NEVER punish a player without evidence.

I hope in this case disciplined internally means they tied him down and let the ladies soccer team get in some free kick practice. You just don't DO that to another guy.

As someone who took a boat load of comparative religions classes, and is married to an Ex-Mo...

 

The history of Mormonism is equally ridiculous to that of Scientology, as well as every other religion. Mormonism and Scientology just seem kookier to us because they don't have the long cultural history and the patina of time.

I don't know how consistant they are (partly because they can leverage a coach into doing it himself a lot of the time) but the Big Ten has definitely suspended players for this or less in the past.

Seems like the kind of thing M would have objected to in old-timey football and forced some kind of agreement before the game could be played. Of course in those days it would probably take some kind of on-field homocide to rise to that level...

Was also the team in the huge brawl in the Miami Bowl with Memphis.

I'm shocked at the lack of media pressure on this...it's kind of a joke. Where's Utah's Drew Sharp when you need him? Where are the "thugs" comments? Where's the unnecessary pressure on the head coach?

Why is BYU exempt from the things most D1 college football programs deal with? Because they're affiliation with religion?
