Now that is more like it! As sports nerds we have long suffered the horrors known as July and August. But September has arrived in all its glory with Oregon losing to Boise state in the first game of the college football season. Adding to the excitement was Oregon running back LeGarrette Blount who punched Boise State's Byron Hout and was then restrained from fans by police on the field.
"I just apologize to anyone watching that," Blount said. "I just apologize to all of our fans and all of Boise's fans. That's something I shouldn't have done. I lost my head."
I love the slow-mo back peddle after he punches the guy, but the best part is how hard he is fighting against everyone that is restraining him as they drag him to the locker. It looks like he really really wanted to Artest that place up. Sweet! FOOOOOOOOOOOOOTBALLL!!!!!!! In any case Boise has already slotted themselves for a BCS bid and no one would be surprised if Oregon drops out...the saga continues.
"Both teams played hard...goodnight and godbless.
Could you please retitle this post "Blount Object"? I woke up in the middle of the night realizing I should post something to that effect. Also, I wonder if this would have been a different decision had Blount not come in out of shape this season.
ReplyDeleteYou'll notice he takes grill shots at one of the Oregon WR's. He really did look like he wanted to Artest the situation.
