Even LeBron hates Ohio.... (image via Ohio State Unviersity)
Over the weekend, No.2 Ohio State took on No.12 Miami University. LeBron James asked Ohio State University for a full police to attend the game at the Horseshoe but was denied. The Buckeye beat the Hurricanes, 36-24, but LeBron never showed up. The Ohio native was only granted one police escort, and LeBron responded by not showing up for the game at all. No word if King James was planning on wearing Buckeyes or Hurricane gear….
The No.1 overall NFL draft pick, Sam Bradford has just agreed to a $78m contract, $50, which is guaranteed. The guaranteed contract is the most ever for a single contract in the NFL, for veterans or rookies. The St. Louis rookie found success at Oklahoma. The QB led the Sooners to a National Championship and won a Hesiman Trophy. Bradford’s senior season came to an abrupt halt when Bradford had to have shoulder surgery.
San Francisco 49ers Vernon Davis and Frank Gore threw a party in a South Beach, and it is now being investigated by the NCAA. Gore is a former Miami Hurricane and hosted the party back in May at the Fontainbleau Hotel where allegedly many college athletes stayed or attended the party.
Gore told SportsBusiness Journal there was a party at the house but didn’t know if there were any athletes who attended:”I don’t even know those guys. There were a lot of people there; it was crazy. I paid for my own party.”
The investigation comes after Alabama defensive end Marcell Dareus was being investigated if he broke any rules by attending an agent’s party in South Beach.
After last season’s bust, the Fighting Irish are not getting the good start to their school year like they wanted to. 11 Notre Dame football players were arrested at a house party in South Bend. The players were mainly freshmen and sophomores, but Joe Montana’s son (pictured above), Nate a walk-on quarterback, was among those charged with underage drinking.
In total 43 were arrested, including two basketball players and a hockey player. According to WNDU.com, “All those arrested were held overnight until their blood alcohol content had dropped to legal levels.”
In their defense, they were just living up to the Irish name.
