Way to Lay Down the Law Urban

University of Florida Head Coach Urban Meyer announced today that star linebacker Brandon Spikes will be suspended for the first half of this weekends game against Vanderbilt. Spikes was caught on camera intentionally gouging the eyes of Georgia running back Waushaun Ealey. It was a completely classless and uncalled for action by Spikes. Meyer, who was made aware of the incident on Sunday night by his wife, reviewed the tape and met with Spikes before reaching his decision. He was quoted as saying "I don't condone that, I understand what goes on on the football [field], but there's no place for that." Such a stiff penalty will surely drive his point home. He went on to make excuses for his star player by saying that it was retaliation for an earlier play in which Spikes had his helmet ripped off and was poked in the eye. Tim Tebow also stuck up for his teammate saying "I don't think that we did anything in that game that they didn't do." Well then, by all means Mr. Spikes go ahead and gouge the eyes of your opponent, we didn't know that they started it. Your total lack of class is completely excused. I hope you can find a way to make it all the way through the first half on Saturday.
