Instead of trying to isolate those around you by creating rules for others to follow so that you feel comfortable, the CDC should be lobbying Christians to get out of their comfort zone and go be with the exact type of people the CDC is viewing as a “problem” – Christ was a friend to the worst of sinners, and he didn’t tell them to change their behavior because it was personally offensive to him.

there roles are so monumentally different in the public eye that a more discerning tongue comes with the territory.

If Chris Rock said it, everybody would have laughed and moved on.

Do I think everybody needs to lighten up, yes, definitely. But Charlie Weis works for a buttoned up institution that takes pride in their maturity and Weis should, too. It shouldn’t matter that she gets different treatment, he should be thankful that he works somewhere where being publicly intoxicated and shouting expletives would not be considered acceptable behavior. He’s a father figure for a hundred young men at a critical point in their lives and is in charge of representing a university that has an interest in him conducting himself with admirable character.

That said, he better start winning some games or everything he said with regard to himself is going to happen anyway.

“I was personally and professionally offended by her comments,” Weis said. “If the situation were reversed, I would have been the lead story on ‘SportsCenter,’ and I would have been fired. Other than that, the university has issued an official response, and I’ll leave it at that.”

Charlie might be right about that.

Can’t stand it.

I’d rather organize a giant picket to get rid of Berman because his jokes are so unfunny.
