Florida State announced Wednesday that starting quarterback Jameis Winston has been suspended for the first half of the No. 1 Seminoles' game vs. Clemson on Saturday for yelling an "offensive and vulgar" phrase in the student union on FSU's campus. Deadspin collected a number of tweets from Florida State students who said they saw Winston standing on a table Tuesday "screaming" the phrase (one made popular by a series of recent viral hoax videos), which uses graphic sexual language.

Hands up, don’t shoot?
Heisman Trophy last year ... Is that right?
I agree. He’s not very bright and a loose cannon to boot.
Could some please FReepmail me what he said..
Best way to get the opposing team off sides is to mumble to a weak mind a tale about his mother etc.
This guy shows signs of being a hard to control pro.
What he said is available by clicking through the link.
I remember a few years back when the NFL nearly had apoplectic fits when they realized their "player mic" thing was picking up some of the most vile insults anyone had heard.
Most of them were coming from offensive linemen, trying to get the defense to violate the neutral zone and thus gain a first down.
They just don't mic them up anymore and if they do, they edit the hell out of it.
One person interviewed admitted that he had been coached from high school days on what to say to the guy lined up in front of them.
At one time, the NCAA tried to police it, by having the officials listen for it, but it can be done so stealthily, that it was too difficult to identify just who was saying what to whom.
And a few of the remarks were being directed toward the officials.
So I had to go look up what was said. One word is G rated in context and the other one, last I checked, was OK for celebs to utter on prime time TV if they feel particularly emotional about something and just can’t control themselves. But it’s been a long time since any language was called “obscene” instead of “cussing” as has become the standard when dismissing the obscene lyrics of rap/hiphop garbage.
