The Indians got More for Manhattan
Five Ohio State football players have been suspended for the first 5 games of next season but not for the upcoming Sugar Bowl. Their offense was to trade championship rings and trinkets for tattoos.
It was tough to decide which target to fire a cartoon at. NCAA greed and hypocrisy for suspending the players, but not until after the big money Sugar Bowl? NCAA greed and hypocrisy for claiming control over the right of free people to exchange their personal property? The stupidity of the players?
