re: In this age of professional/college athletes run amuck

I don't know that he has made a turn around in his ethics.

We know he stole a computer and stole someones test.And 99.5 percent of people think Auburn paid him for his services.

So, if most of his ethical problems stemmed from lack of money, and he gets a 20 MILLION contract , maybe he just doesn't need to be unethical anymore ?

I think the time which shows peoples true selves are the hard times , not the easy times.

That doesn't mean they guy hasn't changed , it just means people should wait and see over time how he acts.

Amok. The word you're looking for is "amok."

he might want a refund for that college education...

If you're going to pay for a guy, you might as well get those qualities too. As opposed to paying for heathens like Albert Means.

There was no need for a correction because the term he used ("amuck") is correct.

You can argue that it's technically correct all you want, but the original term is amok and the word amuck is the product of people routinely misspelling it into common usage.

It's like saying that "drive thru" is a variation of "drive through." Technically it is, but that doesn't mean it isn't a misspelling.

Oxford Dictionary - Amok can also be spelled amuck; both are correct, although amok is far more common.
Dictionary of phrase and fable. [A dictionary of English literature] - Amuck: to run amuck

But no sooner did Victor's feet touch the deck than he began to clean up the ship. He had the strength of several men, and he ran amuck with it. I remember especially one man whom he got into the chain-boxes but failed to damage through inability to hit him. The man dodged and ducked, and Victor broke all the knuckles of both his fists against the huge links of the anchor chain.

quote:

---

A shipmate dropped in, several shipmates dropped in, and we had more quiet drinks. Finally, just as we had engaged a Japanese orchestra, and as the first strains of the samisens and taikos were rising, through the paper-walls came a wild howl from the street. We recognised it. Still howling, disdaining doorways, with blood-shot eyes and wildly waving muscular arms, Victor burst upon us through the fragile walls. The old amuck rage was on him, and he wanted blood, anybody's blood. The orchestra fled; so did we. We went through doorways, and we went through paper-walls--anything to get away.

Jack London, 1913

I always liked cam always seemed like a good dude, he had so much passion just look at the way he celebrated after every win, he was good for college football.

If his dad really did ask for money, what do you expect cam to do go on t.v and rat his own dad out?
