    I was 11 years old at the time, and an avid St. Johns fan. However, I am damned ashamed of Gary McClain, and if the NCAA performed a drug test and he had gotten busted, i would have no issue with the NCAA stripping Villanova of that title.

    BTW, I find it funny how you lecture people to read your posts carefully, yet you write complete falsehoods without any regard to yourself or anyone else on this board. Besides Gary McClain, who else had a drug addition on that team that would classify them as "full of crackheads".

    If you want people to read your posts with respect, how about you take the effort to write them respectfully?

    Wells is dropping facts.

    Don Yee is just rambling about why the world hates his client and league has nothing, yada, yada

    That doesn't make you a fan, it just means you live to far from Boston

    yep, that is exactly what I said. I really feel bad for you.

    yep, I am a Pats fan that lives too far from Boston which is why I have gone to every home game the last 25 years and numerous road games. You got me.

    Would everyone on this site please send me a private message with the number of Jets games you have personally attended so that I can take a tally, thus forcing junc to admit he was actually wrong about something?

    Thanks in advance!

    Why don't you answer my questions: Besides Gary McClain, who else had a drug addition on the 1985 Villanova team that would classify them as "full of crackheads".

    This is also why you're frequent on about a dozen different forums.
    THANK YOU for finally admitting it! Acceptance is the first step to recovery!

    In typical fashion, this went from a thread about NFL football suspensions to arguing about how many guys on a college basketball team did drugs 30 years ago.

    Bravo, a-holes. You're killing it for the rest of us.

    Let's assume this Georgetown Fan Site is is a valid source (Because we KNOW a Duke Fansite would be a valid source for discussion about the current UNC cheating scandal under investigation, right?). The quote says two thinsg:

    McLain also implied that other students and basketball players were involved with drugs. He stated, "Some of my teammates and guys in my dorm knew I did drugs."

    OK, so if his teammates KNEW he was doing drugs, that makes them wrong, but it does not make the TEAM "Full of Crackheads"

    "Some of them did drugs with me. It was no big deal to us."


    Question: Is he referring to his teammates here or people in his dorm?

    the quote is from the SI article, has nothing to do w/ GU.

    it doesn't not make them crackheads either, right?

    I post regularly on 2, I am signed up for about 2 more. this may shock you but others have signed up as nyjunc on other sites, they aren't all me but I thank you for being a fan.

    I've been to every home game since 2000 (that's 14 years worth) and at least 1-2 away games a year.

    Do you think there is maybe one other STH here that has gone to games for at least 11 years?

    I'm guessing the sum total of game attended by TGGers is in the thousands.

    Why would anyone claim to have been to more than thousands of Jet games when there have only been 861 of them?

    You know what? You convinced me: Strip Villanova of the title and award it to Georgetown.

    So, you agree the same should happen to the Patriots?

    McNally is believed to be the person responsible for Brady’s under-inflated footballs.

    “I wanted to do a second interview with Jim McNally,” Wells said Tuesday.


    “He was the second person I interviewed…and I discovered after the first interview one of the important text messages where Jim McNally not only calls himself ‘the deflator,’ but he says, ‘I have not gone to ESPN.'”


    “I asked to interview him a second time, I said I’d go to New Hampshire, I’d interview him in the morning, noon, night. Not only did they say I couldn’t interview him, they said they wouldn’t even tell him about my request for an interview.”


    The Patriots allege that would’ve been McNally’s fifth interview.


    “NFL officials interviewed him on three occasions,” Wells clarified. “So for them later on to say I couldn’t have a second interview with the most important person in the case was just a lack of cooperation.”


    McNally is now claiming that he offered to be interviewed over the phone, which is being presented by the Boston media as if that somehow exculpates the Patriots refusal to make him available for Ted Wells, who clearly wanted to speak in-person.

    dunno if this has been posted yet

    Here’s Ted Wells’ opening statement today:

    “I would like to start out by responding to criticisms by Mr. Brady’s agent, Don Yee, about my independence, and his suggestions that the conclusions of the report were somehow influenced by persons in the league office who wanted to find wrongdoing by the Patriots and Mr. Brady.
    “The conclusions in the report represent the independent opinions of me personally and my team. And those conclusions were not influenced in any way shape or form by anyone at the league office. We made a fair and reasonable review of the evidence, and we reached conclusions based on the preponderance of the evidence standard, which I was required to apply based on the league’s rules. To the extent Mr. Yee is suggesting that I have some type of conflict because I and my law firm do other work for the NFL, I want to be clear that it is well known that I worked for the NFL in the Miami Dolphins investigation involving Jonathan Martin and Richie Incognito. And also that my law firm is involved in representing the NFL in the concussion cases. Those facts were all publicly known at the time I was appointed. When I was appointed to be the independent investigator, no one at the Patriots, or in Mr. Brady’s camp, raised ANY issues about my independence or my integrity to judge the evidence impartially and fairly. In fact, Mr. Kraft, to my recollection, publicly said he welcomed my appointment. I think it is wrong to criticize my independence just because you disagree with my findings.”
