Troubling Sammie Stroughter Situation




Sammie Stroughter is still missing practices. "Personal reasons" for missing practice is lame. If Sammie had a problem at home, I think OSU would say so. The fact that no one is at least doing a PR dance is telling.

Here are my top ten possible reasons for Sammy being MIA:

10)He thought practice was for second string players
9)He is mad at his position coach for making fun of him in practice
8)He is mad at the press for their pre-season evaluation of him
7)He is in debt to some gangbangers
6)He is mad that he wasn't on the cover of the 2007 Media Guide
5)He is mad about OSU's new uniforms
4)He is mad about Coach Riley's dismissal of Coye Francies
3)He knocked up a girl who is interested in blackmailing Sammy
2)He knocked up a girl who happens to be the daughter of an Oregon football coach
1)He knocked up a girl who happens to be the daughter of an OSU football coach

If anyone else some ideas, feel free to comment....I am out of possible reasons......

Sammie, if the reason is #4.....you are one major league donkey......

coach was on 1080 the fan earlier today and in response to the question on sammy's status riley seemed to catch himself after classifying sammy's problem as a personal health issue -- restating it as a family problem. his 'slip of the tongue' almost seemed intentional however. either way it doesn't appear he will be returning in time for utah.

Thanks for the info Bryan....

While I feel sorry for Sammy, I am not sure his handling of the situation sits well with me.....

I hope you bite your tongue after this awful post about Sammie's situation......now that you know the whole story. I hope that no one in your family or yourself, for that matter, ever has to experience the torment that Sammie has had to endure. His actions have spoken for himself both on and off the field. I hope the NFL is lucky enough to have many Sammie Stroughters in the league...it sure beats the many criminals they have been glorifying over the years. Btw, his "handling of the situation", so just tell me how YOU would have HANDLED what he went through? Oh, yeah, you don't know because you have never been in his shoes.God Bless you and your family with good health both mentally and physically. It can all be gone before you even realize it.
God speed, Sammie!!!!!!
