My thoughts on recent arrests

I think all of the mudslinging between supporters of Auburn and the "Dark Side" should end. Hundreds of college students get arrested on either campus each week. You cannot expect a football player to act differently than any other college student. You can hope, but that is about it.

Not being at either scene, the best I can give is my opinion. As I understand it, the girlfriend of the UA player saw him talking to a female student at a party on the UA campus. She then proceeded to key his car and once he saw what was going on, he simply tried to stop her from doing that. I can't imagine many of us would have reacted much differently.

The AU player got into some fisticuffs with a drunken AU student. I can't imagine how that started **sarcasm**, given that the AU player was sober at the time. Seems the only thing he was guilty of was being out past curfew.

Now, we know both coaches will handle this with a heavier hand than many of us as parents would, but they are expected to handle themselves with a little more decorum, given that they are representatives of each university.
