Yo' Rod, well said young man

This is a discussion on Yo' Rod, well said young man within the Georgia Tech Football forums, part of the Georgia Tech Sports Message Boards category; I thought this was classic. Georgia Tech's Rod Sweeting Wins Sun Bowl MVP Honors, Immediately Utters "Sheeeeeiiit" On CBS...

Golden wearing his cap sideways looking like a street thug, to Sweeting uttering a profanity in front of a few women, including the wife of the Sun Bowl president. Pitiful, especially with Johnson in the background laughing! JMO.

    I don't see anything wrong with the cap sideways, but I could go without the profanity.

    I don't like the cap sideways, myself, but I'm not the coach. Didn't like the swearing or sounding like an illiterate. GT should make the whole team take public speaking and conduct classes and not just for interviews, but for life.

    It wasn't intentional.. he was obviously overwhelmed (video proves it)... They're college kids, nobody will really care...

    Come on, the guy was an embarrassment- I wonder if we had not won (but he got award) and everybody was not in such a jovial mood if the forgiving attitude would the same

    The hat crap can be done off the field and not in uniform.

    I was a bit embarrassed by RS's post game interview off the field.

    I still thought he caught himself and said "she eye" (must have been my gold filtered hearing)... after listening to it a few times I guess he did say "it".

    Sounded to me like he kind of realized half way through the word that he didn't want to say it. Then he went on to say PC things.

    Playing the way the D did has to be a gorilla and a half off their backs. Something to work with during the off season getting stronger.

    Who cares? He is a kid and the only people watching it are on this board. Everyone else had changed the channel or was getting a sandwich. It was funny and an accident, that is why CPJ laughed. Don't worry, it won't affect recruiting or put us on probation.
