So tell us the true story if he is such a nice guy. Why did he hospitalize a kid? Especially one that was apparently no physical threat to him.

The "kid" started the fight. And still wanted more after it was over. Even called TK and said he wanted more.

Did you ever fight in high school?

Man, that's an awesome reason to fight someone.

I'm sorry, it seems like a poorly veiled attempt to get empathy for the kid.

It seems like if someone gave you the best reason in the world you would still shoot it down so whats the point in talking to a close minded person like you? The kid talked infinite shite about Tk and Tk shut his mouth. It wasnt excessive at all he hit him one time. Then after it happened the kid said im gonna make sure he never plays football again. Just somebody jealous of somebody else trying to bring them down. If you have never punched a guy in the face in highschool then you are a rare breed my friend.

It's obvious you have a personal connection with the kid and your discernment is skewed. If the kid who was punched had been your son, I think you would be seeing things differently. And as far as your first sentence, I'm not even sure what you are talking about.

I feel extremely confident that if that was my son i would ask why in the hell would you talk shite to HIM? You kinda got what you were lookin for son! I mean seriously how could you feel sorry for the kid if he brought the entire thing on himself? And my first sentence was referring to you saying that you dont think that is a good reason to fight someone. I was standing right there when it happened. The kid DESERVED it why would i lie about this?

I wish. Kenny Hall. Set the national record in the triple (jumped like 8 feet further than speedy) but never even made it to a college campus.

I wouldn't go as far as saying he deserves no punishment, but high school is different these days. Kids know they can say things these days and almost always get away with it as whoever takes any action will absolutely be crucified.

I remember when I worked in HS athletics it was always the biggest kids who had little shits talk smack to them. They knew the bigger kid couldn't do anything to them so they ran their mouths and let it fuel their Napoleon complex.

I'm not saying kids shouldn't be punished for fighting, but I also wish it could go back to the way where if you were a cocky little shite for no reason someone would shut you up. Way too many kids growing up today who've never been punched in the face.

Until someone starts bringing out weapons or numerous people are involved or kicks/elbows take place when someone goes down nothing serious ever really comes from a fight. Someone gets a little more bruised than the next but a month later they're fine.

Fleming has had more than one run in trouble. "Shutting" someones mouth for talking trash, he got what he deserved. Hope the guy puts it together but I doubt anyone will take much of a chance with him.

He had zero direction. The coaches tried, but he literally bounced around from house to house with team mates. Anytime he was at once place long enough for the parents of the household to act like a parent to him he left.

Yeah, I've got close ties to Benton. Best talent to come from that town, maybe ever.
