It seems to be taking an unusually long time to activate the Big Orange spin cycle on the great U.T. Football Player Bar Brawl incident, but Big Jim must be back from vacation or campaigning or wherever and so it begins with today's front page shocker: people were drinking at a local bar!
Coach Dooley must be frustrated. The cops are slow walking the indictments, if there will even be any, for the felony assault of an off-duty police officer. All of a sudden, nobody knows nuthin'. We all thought Dooley would kick ass and take names if this kind of stuff happened, but it's hard to know whose ass to kick when nobody's taking names.
Now we learn it's the bar's fault! People are drinking in there! Some of them are getting drunk! They give away liquor to get even more people even more drunk! They have videos with naked women!
These poor, innocent unsuspecting U.T. Football Players just accidentally stumbled into this den of iniquity and were in imminent danger of getting corrupted by the Demon Horde lying in wait. They had to fight their way out of there to protect their Purity of Essence and defend the Character and Dignity of The Program. Clearly they are the victims here. Somebody ought to Do Something about that place!
Anyway, it sounds like the happening nitespot. I'm guessing the owners couldn't have bought better publicity at any price, and imagine it will be packed this weekend.
