Grasso taking a leave of absence from Bryant

[CuseCPT]

That's one of the most hurtful things I've ever seen said on these forums.

His quote was not about consensual sex.

Yes, I’m aware of that. Which made the comment that much more appalling

I hear the restaurants are nice.

I hear the restaurants are nice.

That's exactly how much I know about Providence, even though I have driven through it dozens of times.

They are. I loved going to games in Providence. Nice dinner. A win. Short drive home.

A couple things. It's definitely more likely it could have gone different in the proposed scenario. There is evidence of such you don't have to look hard for.

It's also one where sadly income and class play a large role. At a trailer park vs such a home this may go down much differently too irrespective of any race. This is something as someone who grew up dirt poor I've experienced first hand many years ago.

I'm not in disagreement that it could've gone differently, but could've is just that, could have or speculation. In regards to "evidence of such don't have to look hard for," is this an exact scenario in its totality, the same exact apples to apples, etc. situation you're making this assessment on? Perhaps you can reference one specifically? Even if there is an exact example, does it warrant the universal type suggestion of standard that was made?

I'm in complete agreement that class plays a large role. However, your reference "at a trailer park vs. such a home" is a completely different set of circumstances, etc. and quite different from the scenario I proposed.

No doubt that one's own life experiences shapes each and every one of ours particular viewpoints, etc.

I'll stand by what I wrote that making blanket type statements, etc. vs. case by case (not to mention injecting the race issue where it doesn't even exist in the first place) is IMO, very counter/unproductive.

It's a complex topic. To leave it as such ill just say too often throwing away realities that exist is just as problematic as such the blanket statement point you reference. Not many care to operate in the middle where most of these things fall.

Sure hope his wife and children aren't around him much with all this going on. Dude is a whackjob.

Would have loved to have dressed as Boeheim and gone to Grasso's house for Halloween.

 

[Millhouse]

44cuse is this one of the guys who had a lot to say about boeheim to you?

 

[Cusefan95]

I sincerely hope he doesn’t think that passage describes him and instead it’s something he’s striving for…” calm” in any form would never be used to describe him. Or “egoless”.

I cant imagine why he tweeted that. He is a very weird dude.

People like him are so narcissistic they think that stuff like that describes them and that the "little people" just aren't on their level and don't understand them. Zero self-awareness.

Jon Rothstein once again looking like an idiot

 

[Sbucketball]

The misdemeanor hit and run charge against him was dropped a few days ago. His insurer accepted liability for the accident, and the police dropped the charge, followed by Grasso officially resigning.

 

[M2MPrinciples]

I'm not commenting on the off-court stuff, but didn't Grasso's teams foul the ever-loving snot out of us, or am I misremembering? I just have a memory of a recent non-con team playing really dirty for no discernible reason.

Yeah that sounds about right

I don't recall what he said about this. Can you refresh my memory?

Proclaimed that Grasso could now get back to coaching after the hit-and-run was dropped last week or whenever that was. As if that was the biggest problem he had going on. Lol

Grasso was placed on leave before the incident occurred for a separate case. That just compounded an existing issue with the university. He was never coming back.

Adios doosh

 

[ADKDave]

I was across the court from Grosso and watched his lunatic behavior the whole game. Hope this guy gets help.

 

[dasher]

I can't see him getting another chance. Too much risk for a A.D. to take and he isn't that good of a coach. Good, but not that good that you would take a Pitino type of risk with him.
