re: Tennessee RB Jeremy Banks - Pay for Play

What violent act has he committed against another person, because that's the definition of a thug, being black with tattoos, gold teeth, a hairstyle you don't like, and being less articulate than you doesn't make him a thug

Thugs commit violence against innocent people, being different from your standard of respectable doesn't make him a thug, but it does expose you as a potential racist

The comment about where he comes from, chalk that up to being an idiot, with the potential to elevate someday to thug behavior, but as of today, not a thug

So we should cut him a break because he's only a thug wannabe?

Disgusting thing is this child was given a real opportunity to better himself but appears to show no appreciation and again at least appears quite intent on peeing it away.

It's bad enough when good players display such an entitlement mentality, but it's not like his team is even putting a great product on the field right now.
