[slapshot]

No surprise. But check out what Miss does if caught using pot - A 2nd time!! Good God, why have any rules at all?

Slap Shot the SEC is loose or might I say Very, Very Loose on their drug policy because it comes down to dollars. They know if they take their stars off the field in major games and loose, they can not compete in major bowls or for a National Championship. If you dig a little deeper, you will see that players fail drug tests and they are reported in time so that they miss non-conference games and not big games. they are not reported immediately. If done so they would miss major games and possibly cost their team a loss. Georgia, and LSU are Big on this. LSU had three stars to fail on the same test day, but suspended them in different games just by reporting them a different times. All comes down to money, they could careless about the player as long as he gets on that field and brings that money to poppa.

OK. I just had to laugh when I read what Ole Miss does (or should I say, doesn't do) - after the 2nd offense, no less. Why even bother? Too funny.
