This comment has merit, and is one of the reason's Tebow is so highly regarded.
This negates your mentioning of the first. classy.
Pretty sure that happened one time; regardless, it's not the point of their mission. But you noles harping on that one tidbit over and over diminishes the real work he and his family do in The Philippines.
Bundy didn't go to school in Tallahassee, nor is he from Tallahassee. Bundy lived out west. He murdered women in Utah, Oregon, Colorado, Idaho and Washington...and escaped from a Colorado Court House during his murder trial there. He was on the lamb and murdered co-eds in Tallahassee less than a year after his escape.
Equating Bundy with Tallahassee is ridiculous...other than he murdered women there. It would be the same as saying "Danny Rolling is out of Gainesville". Utter nonsense.
On another level...pretty lousy linking Winston and Bundy.
My point was that just because a guy is intelegent doesn't mean it excuses his bad bahaviour.
was not emplying that Winston was the same as Bundy.
Our society seems more impressed with brains or athletic ability than being a good person.
There are plenty who get a pass for some terrible things becase they have talents that are worshiped.

Basically. I feel like a lot of Noles is a rush to defend Jameis keeps conflating issues. I don't think the guy is dumb at all. But like I've said a million times he definitely sounds dumb when he straight up trashes the english language AND he has made a lot of dumb decisions. Regardless of how smart you may or may not be in a classroom if you continually make dumb, public decisions, then people are gonna assume you're dumb. It's like most Noles want people to ignore his decisions and instead focus on his academics which makes no sense. You can be book smart without being street smart.
And that is really what it is boiling down to for the NFL decision makers....is he just very immature, or does he have serious character issues. I listened to Chris Landry talk specifically about this last Friday, and he seems to think it is more than just immaturity, and he says several teams feel the same way. But we certainly cannot get an honest discussion from the jamie-pologists.
So we "defend" him and you "criticize" him. We each pick the aspect of the issue that supports our case...so what else is new?
Bottom line is the proof is in the pudding. He has been "labeled" now and we will all get to see how he handles that in the future.
