Greatest Hits: Fredo
So they finally came and fixed the phone line at my house and while I missed the blog's "official" birthday, I'm back to finish off the greatest hits series. This is Fredo's Greatest Hit. It started off a good conversation which led to it being the post with the most comments with 19. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BLOG!!!!!
UPDATE:: Actually, as Carlos pointed out to me, there was another post with 21 comments. It was a discussion on movies started by me. This still is a great post and a good discussion. http://cronuslags.blogspot.com/2005/06/why-i-dont-want-to-watch-cinderella.html#comments
Ok, so at first glance I always thought athletes in this university have no brain. Now I am assured that they in fact have no brain.
Now here at work we have the lost and found cabinet, and in it I found an almost empty notebook that I intend to keep. Inside it, I found the GPA of one of our athletes. And its no surprise that it’s lower than a 2.0 and according to its attached transcript and letters he is not on academic probation. Strange isn’t it?
Furthermore here is a direct copy of the letter that was inside with the transcripts by a woman named Leslie Schuemann and a guy called Jason Henderson directed to all faculty advisors:
“Attached are the transcripts, degree plan and advising sheet for the student athlete. Please advise the student-athlete during early registration for Spring 2006. if the student-athlete has reached the fifth semester and does not have a degree plan, please assist the student-athlete in obtaining a degree plan and returning it to this office. NCAA guidelines require each student-athlete to complete a minimum of twenty-four degree accountable hours a year. Your advising expertise is needed to ensure this regulation is met. Thank you for your assistance and if you have any other questions you can reach is at extension 2500.”
(For all you spammers and whatnot, their phones are 361-593-2500 and their fax is 361-593-3488)
I mean, the “student-athlete” a word they mention like fucking 5000 times, is so mentally challenged, (ok fuck it, retarded, probably still in its anal stage) that he needs the university to hook him up with a major, financial aid and an advisor so that he can continue being a failure. Yet in this university failures are paid to go to college.
Which brings me to my debate of, why are athletes treated as gods when they do nothing for the benefit of humanity. They are just a placebo to forget about how fucked the world is, and yet they are overpaid and uneducated and take away the chance that someone smart and who really needs money to go to college away.
I say fuck their privileges, its not as if they’re doing research. To me they’re just a bunch of steroid pushing assholes who think they’re superior for handling a ball. Monkeys handle balls, and at the same time, distinguish shapes and can play monopoly. I prefer monkeys, its just me. Monkey.
cheers
