I think if those traditions are minimized, the team name could still remain in 20 years.
Yeah Brooke - they're getting rid of seats and building a drum platform so they can phase out the Chop. Seems legit.
So who's family gave her the 'intel' on this gem? [Reply]
When dealing w your players & issues of sexual assault & domestic violence, a one game suspension is never appropriate. I don’t care what else is going on. One game suspensions only send ONE message - the victim doesn’t matter & what your player did isn’t a big deal.

I looked at that womans page and it's something else.....apparently she got gangraped by football players who got a 1 game suspension so now it is her personal crusade to make sure any athlete accused of anything is burned at the stake. [Reply]
The justice system is not broken. That would imply that at some point it worked. The system was never built to protect survivors of rape, sexual assault & domestic violence.
Justice for survivors is uncommon. The truth is, the system is working exactly as it was intended to. https://t.co/FqPYajAVXc

I'd like to also add this is a woman that Oregon State reached out to and hired her as a sexual assault counselor and she promptly hit them with a lawsuit about what happened 17 years before..... [Reply]
