November 15, 20178 yr Is that your recommendation or what has been announced? Just my recommendation. But in reality - I would imagine just enough games to get into the conference schedule.
November 15, 20178 yr I sit here and think a full season is a bit much, but then I sit here an realize if this was me getting busted in China for shop lifting, what would happen to me? Id have to believe the POTUS I did vote for, wouldnt be so quick to act and get me out of there. People saying a whole season is to much? China couldve just told whomever "na baby na" youre in my house, my rules. I agree they should be held out the whole season. How much political wheeling and dealing had to go on? Any of our tax dollars spent on this?
November 15, 20178 yr I hope some type of community service is involved in the "penalty". Young people especially, could benefit from their constructive interaction.
November 15, 20178 yr First things first. Did they make it past the Duty Free Shop without any problems?
November 15, 20178 yr And there it is, no lesson learned because they're getting off with a slap on the wrist. From the article: An anonymous U.S. official told The Washington Post that charges against the three players have been reduced. A source told ESPN's Arash Markazi that there is surveillance footage of the players shoplifting from three stores inside a high-end shopping center, which houses Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Salvatore Ferragamo stores. I doubt that you would be gung ho about your own child being held or punished in China for ANY reason. If they are guilty, let UCLA and Coach Alford handle it. I see no need in blindly letting them be held or punished by a country that is known for having no respect for human life or human rights.
November 15, 20178 yr All 3 have been suspended indefinitely. No practice, no suiting up, no traveling with the team. Good for Alford.
November 15, 20178 yr Author “Do you think the three UCLA Basketball players will say, ‘Thank you, He Who Shall Not Be Named?’ They were headed for 10 years in jail!” -He Who Shall Not Be Named (Had to help him out with some basic grammatical concepts.) I was always told to do the right thing and expect nothing in return, including a “Thank you.”
November 15, 20178 yr Give em 5-10 games and then move on. I think they all have learned a pretty good lesson.
November 15, 20178 yr All 3 have been suspended indefinitely. Off subject and team but Grayson Allen was suspended indefinitely and it was 1 game if memory serves me right.
November 16, 20178 yr We need to see that video!!! I just want to see how strong their lifting game is. I'm just curious if they were all slick stealing or just stupid obvious about it. If they were good, wouldn't you wonder how many times they didn't get caught?
November 16, 20178 yr We need to see that video!!! I just want to see how strong their lifting game is. Surprised people want them suspended for the year. How many games then? If it was shoplifting in the US would it be less?
