"Stop" Already

There was a player who thought only of himself and never his team or fans. He continued to do drugs knowing it would finish his chances to play football at Tennessee. This week on the Locker Room show and an acticle in the Tennessean we continue to give this x player publicity he does not deserve. Please "stop". We don't wish to know how he is doing or if he ever is drafted. Lets focus the news on the kids working their butts off for their teams and the university, trying to get better.Enough about this X player.

So you bring attention to this issue to a site that's not discussing it?

Not sure why the sensitivity to this topic but I agree with the OP. Let CLK, DR, JJ, and all the others go. We've got folks to focus on that are giving their all for Tennessee every day. We have an unhealthy fascination at times with what might have been. Let's look forward, not backward!

My point was this site has not discussed DR situation in a while, so why bring it up if the OP wants to move on? I could understand if it was a topic everyday.

I am part of this board, I tweeted nothing. Please learn to separate what Wes does from the board. I love ya Wes but life's too short to be held responsible for your thousands of tweets. :)
