Football is King in Louisiana, so I assume this football player played tonight (or last night) without any consequences. I believe in Texas, he would have been put in jail and arrested.

Basically, the football player (and other football players) were shoving an autistic student. This diminutive cheerleader stepped in the way to stop it.

For that, she was hit multiple times and ended up in ICU (Intensive Care Unit).

Criminals are supposed to be arrested. But I guess football players are the exception in Louisiana.

I believe this happened in the school cafeteria.

Regardless, it happened during school time. Not before or after.

Very sad, but strangely written story.

Prayers up for this young lady.

There should have been teachers on DUTY.

No excuse for that.

This football program needs to be dismantled for the rest of at least this year and possibly the next while they figure out how to teach the young thugballers not to hit women or bully students - and make it stick. Keep the program closed down until they do.

Football is bigger in Texas than anywhere hoss

Those of us who visit there or have family there or lived there like i do/did

Have seen your high school football stadiums which are unrivaled .....like college stadiums

I’ mean really.....Texas owns high school football lock stock and barrel like nowhere else

but the football player would be in jail

I catch the whiff of the anti-technology Amish. Punching small girls in the face is practically their national sport outside of the NFL or B-Ball.

Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic

Flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus

Then there was the ever present football player-rapist

They were all in love with dyin', they were doin' it in Texas

The guy that hurt her should serve time.

At least it’s not as bad as what Cam Newton did.

I think so, too. Regan was dropped while cheerleading a few weeks ago, suffering a concussion. As a result of this pounding, she can’t remember anything for the last three months, let alone what happened that day.

Observers said Regan stepped in front of her autistic friend to protect her. She shoved the guy and he pounded her in the face several times.

She was hospitalized for three days.

The guy that hurt her should serve time.

I agree. A year in Angola should teach him how to be someone's girlfriend there.

[topher]

I assume your post is sarcasm. Physically hitting a small female is much worse than Cam’s statements.

[txnativegop]

football players are the exception everywhere.

[txnativegop]

Might look into whether or not the players are shooting steroids to bulk up. I bet they are.

[txnativegop]

So that is the name of that song.

[farming pharmer]

Great tune...”you never know just how you look through other people’s eyes”.

In the news video, the mother does all the talking while the father stares off into space. My guess is he’s thinking about how he’s going to get to the football player who hit his daughter and blow off his head.
