Going to Harvard doesn't mean you can't be stupid or not make sense on something. That right there shows that Harvard isn't what its cracked up to be if too many of your types coming through the ranks. UPenn is better anyway

there are some dumb people at harvard.
but his double major was not easy.

i may not agree with him (from what i read), but he is telling the truth there.

Not sure -- I didn't have to take it because History was primary. I had fewer requirements in Gov. My first gov course was International Conflicts of the Modern World. It was usually taught by Joe Nye, but (just my luck) he was on sabbatical that semester and we got some guy named Kehone (sp?) instead.

what kind of car did professor Kehone drive and where did he park on tuesdays during the fall semester.

also could you describe in detail the trees in the plympton parking lot and approximately how many squirrels inhabited the trees in the fall semester.

thanks in advance.

Does that being the first point in his statement suggest objectivity? What's your view of the entire basis of the decision being founded upon the word of someone who was admittedly willing to lie about the situation?

What's your position on the investigation being led by someone with a Giants shrine in her home? And who made a recent DV decision of only 1 game. Is it a conspiracy to believe the fallout from that case impacted the Zeke suspension? Because it was discussed throughout the investigation. And then happened.

Whoa, partner. Are you asking me because you truly want to hear honest, good faith answers or simply using your questions to try and make a point?

I will give you the benefit of the doubt, assume the former, and answer.

Yes, I think that two reasonable people acting in good faith can many times look at the same set of facts and reach different conclusions. I believe that Peter believes what he said, and reached his conclusion based on an honest review of the record. I have a somewhat different opinion. But different results do not necessarily mean that the process to get there was different.

Second, the woman you are referring to was primarily responsible for collecting the facts for the advisory panel (which had no decision making authority) and Goodell (who had that power exclusively). I have not seen anything in the evidence collection process that seems fishy. It seems that the dispute, rather, is over how to WEIGH the evidence, and which facts to give credence to and which not. That was all Goodell at the end of the day.

When the Josh Brown facts came out I wanted him gone immediately, even as a Giants fan. And I think the suspension was too light. I do not believe that that means that the league was wrong for applying the policy "correctly" (assuming Goodell's facts) as it is written now. But I can see where someone might reasonably disagree.

And yes, I believe that public pressure absolutely impacted the whole case. But I don't think that that pressure really matters if there isn't some fire there. I get that someone might think the sentence is unreasonable. But I don't think any reasonable person could dispute that, suspension-worthy or not, Zeke isn't the most upstanding Cowboy (no Witten or Romo, that's for sure) and that his poor judgment when he had full knowledge he was under investigation mattered a lot as well.

Having gone there, I can confirm your first statement is absolutely right (although not in my case lol)!

As for UPenn, it's just full of people who didn't get into Harvard, Princeton or Yale (and probably Stanford too! (j/k - you started it!)

Honestly that's not my point my friend. My point is he thinks going to Harvard means nobody can say he is stupid or doesn't make sense and that's not true at all. Going to a certain school doesn't exclude you from being told that and if he thought it did maybe he was doing untoward things to pass his double major lol.

Ha -- I'm not saying that at all!

I've been called stupid many times before -- and some of those times I actually was!

I don't think I am here tonight, though. You are welcome to your own opinion.

Well, you'd definitely be wrong about Mars.

I lived in Canaday freshman year, then Winthrop House the last three years. I majored in History and Government (so Harvard to call PolySci "Government"). The zip code is 02138. Dorm phone numbers are 617-493-xxxx. Derek Bok was president the first three years while I was there. Then he was replaced by Neil Rudenstine. My graduation speaker was the Prime Minister of Norway, Gro Harlem Brundtland.

Need I go on? Or do you think I looked all of that up in 30 seconds? If you don't believe me, there is this site called Google that can confirm it all.

Now I'm absolutely Positive I don't like you
*fist*

Bold is true also I'm sure but sometimes it can be as simple as people that are from Philly want to goto school in their hometown lol. Its all good my friend even though I still say going to a certain school doesn't mean you can't be stupid or not make sense on something.
