Last week saw another Florida State football star get a slap
on the wrist for a pretty serious alleged crime that would have you and me in
hot water. Wow, I guess the Florida cops must really want Florida State to win
the national title again, seeing as how they are subverting the course of
justice to help, allegedly.
And that’s why I think the NCAA needs to have a new college
athletics award: the COP (Criminal Offense Protection) Award, for the greatest
criminal cover-up corruption of the season, awarded to the police officers or
district attorney who covers up the most egregious crime of that year in order
to help a college sports team win by keeping the players out of jail and
eligible to play. Maybe it could be a blood-spattered golden football, or a figure
of a police officer holding a barred jail cell door open for the figure of a
running football player to sprint through and escape.
