Man, are these guys tone deaf? Kirby needs to lay the hammer down. The fact that players keep doing it after the loss of a teammate is unexplainable to me. The Fast and Furious movies have created a very unsafe novelty that seems to be a mindset nowadays.
Looks like all that NIL money is causing more problems. Time to suggest the guys buy low power weak 4 cylinder cars until they mature a little. Heck if I had one of those chargers or what ever I would still stomp on it occasionally and I am 67.
plus you have to factor in a county DA that lets drugs run rampant in Clarke County and seems more intent on catching football players than enforcing the law in general. Yes the football players should pay the price but so should the many crimes that are not being enforced.
This is flat-out ridiculous. Time to go back to mopeds.
Happens a lot in Clarke County. UGA players have had an extra target on their back for years. May as well do the time if you've done the crime. Only way to help this problem is start requiring driver safety classes and actual certification from these classes. These are no longer "kids". When you're handed fast toys to drive and are supposed to drive with sense, that goes out the window the 1st time you feel the speed. The 1st time I flew on an airplane, I was sweating bullets. As soon as I felt the airplane surge and take off, all fear went away. Now I love flying on planes when I can. Same goes for driving fast, there's a thrill to it. But sad to say that losing a teammate, to extreme driving, hasn't really set home with these players. I just hope it does soon.
Lord have mercy! 😡
YAWN!!! These guys are just normal human beings. They are no different than a lot of the idiots I see driving around Atlanta everyday. Age doesn’t matter.
Are you kidding? Did any of them not learn anything this offseason?
I replaced my mailbox just yesterday after a speeding driver destroyed it. Dude was hauling tail through the other night and crashed into a huge live oak on side of the road. It was a very bad wreck. When I ran down there there was a guy laying about 20 ft away, motionless. He had been thrown out of the truck. Others had stopped to help, so I didn't go any closer. Plus, I didn't want to see anyone badly hurt. He never moved, and a cop later told me the guy had suffered major trauma, and would be lucky if he makes it. I hope the dude makes a full recovery, of course. But it didn't look good.
Bad things can happen when you're out there acting stoopid behind the wheel. But everyone knows this already. Don't they? SMH!
The message is not getting through. Toothless discipline apparently the norm now. "We discipline them", CKS. Rings completely hollow. Time to kick somebody off the team.
Seriously. How **** can you be.
Everything’s under control. Nothing to see here. Right.
IMO...These high speed arrests are an indicator of a larger issue. Apparently, not just ballplayers, but, kids (age 16-20/25) of all persuasions and walks of life are engaging in this activity. If it's not stopped by the Police in that area...we're gonna hear about a family-of-four getting killed...or, worse.
Will that stop it? We've already established that kids are brain-dead and, require supervision. It's up to the "adults in the room" to put a stop to it...on public highways, at least. Maybe have organized street races, to give em a chance to "open it up" without putting others in extreme danger.
Regarding this specific case...you all know how I feel about judgement without facts and rebuttal. That being said...you have to question Jack-Saints overall intelligence, considering what his team has been through over the last 6 months. You have to assume the "max speeding charge" is not debatable...either he was or he wasn't. In this case, I believe the Police. Recent history is on their side.
I DO wonder, though....Are "Football Players" the only student-athletes engaging in high-speed traffic violations (racing)? If that's the case...what the hell is going on in that locker room? And...is it just UGA's student-athletes, or are other communities dealing with it?
