Sports, U.S.: Officer McJerk had no remorse for a NFL player’s mom-in-law

  • What happened? On the night of March 17, Houston Texans running back Ryan Moats was in a race against time to go see his dying mother-in-law at a hospital in Plano, Tx. He ran a red light. Unfortunately for him, he was stopped in the hospital parking lot by the meanest cop ever. source

  • No sympathy Officer Robert Powell, who did not seem to care about the situation, kept Moats waiting for 20 minutes while he performed a background check and said things like “I can screw you over.” Not even hospital staff could stop him. When Moats finally got to see her, she was dead. source

Sports: Jerry Jones: Here’s a hint that T.O.’s still a Cowboy (probably)

  • You and I both know that the one that you’re asking about all the time, if I gave you the answer that you want to hear, then you would’ve already had it. So the fact you don’t have it ought to tell you something.

Offbeat, Sports: A 100-0 loss in girls’ basketball? Pssh, we really won!

  • My girls never quit. They played as hard as they could to the very end. They played with all their hearts at 70-nothing, 80-nothing and 100-nothing.
  • Jeremy Civello • Dallas Academy athletic director, on a 100-0 high school girls’ basketball loss that he’s way too freakin’ optimistic about. The Texas school, which deals with students with a variety of learning problems, pulled the team from the league shortly thereafter, and the opposing team calls the score an embarrassment – on their part. • source
