OSG High: Sayreville High FB Season Cancelled Amid Bullying Scandal

((HT: NJ.com/Stanmyre))

The HQ is (at the same time) disgusted, not surprised, and pretty pissed at what seems to be going down at Sayreville High In New Jersey at present.

The football team has won three titles in the last four years- but they won't win one this season since the school superintendent suspended the rest of their schedule (and the schedules of the middle school and junior varsity squads as well) after an investigation found:

"there was enough evidence to substantiate there were incidents of harassment, intimidation and bullying that took place on a pervasive level, on a wide-scale level, and at a level in which the players knew, tolerated and in general accepted."

Here's the latest from the high school


So we have alleged hazing that was out of control and, in a separate investigation, a coach resigned amid allegations of steroid possession.

Nice...

The investigation is ongoing and Sayreville's coaches and other school personnel are being told not to comment on a matter that is under review.

Irish Suspend WR Mahone Indefinitely For Threatening To Kill Cops (And Other Stuff)

((HT: WSBT-TV))

And the charges are a big list- five in total, and some of them felonies...

Will Mahone, over the weekend, was booked in his home town in Ohio for disorderly conduct, assault on a police officer, resisting arrest, intimidation of a public servant and vandalism of a government entity. Three of those charges are felonies.

The police report can be found hyah, thanks to our friends at WNDU-TV in South Bend...

Austintown, Ohio police say they arrived at the scene of a party where witnesses told them Mahone was head butting and punching cars. Officers approached Mahone, who was pretty drunk apparently, and tried to get him to calm down.

He then would f-bomb the cops and allegedly threatened to kill the cops once they handcuffed him.

Here's the story from South Bend
video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player Notre Dame came out with their own statement: "The University is aware of this incident and is confident that it will be handled in a prompt and professional manner through the criminal justice system. Internal discipline is handled privately, in accord with our own policies and federal law."
And the HQ thinks that Mahone is quite done- regardless of the result of the charges and any court appearance.

DEVELOPING: 49ers Culliver Arrested For Felonies And Misdemeanors

((HT: NBC Bay Area))

Allegedly...

Chris Culliver is supposed to be a key cog in the San Francisco 49ers defense in the 2014 season. But his status is now up in the air after his arrest in a hit-and-run incident involving himself, a bicyclist, and the after-effects...


The 49ers cornerback was booked in Santa Clara County (CA) jail for felony hit-and-run, felony reckless driving with injury, felony possession of brass knuckles, misdemeanor hit-and-run and misdemeanor driving on a suspended license.

The team "is aware" of the situation and isn't commenting any further than:

"We will remain in contact with Chris and the local authorities as we continue to gather the facts regarding this situation. As this is an ongoing legal matter, we will reserve further comment at this time.”

More when we know more...

D'backs Spanish Announcer Accused of Assault

And also threatening to kill his wife at their home...

Miguel Perez Quintana is the Spanish-language play-by-play guy for the Arizona Diamondbacks (mugshot right, thanks
Azcentral.com) and he has been arrested on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, criminal damage, and intimidation...

Bail is set at $10-grand raising the ire of a lot of people in the desert...

Quintana’s wife told police she woke up Monday evening to find her husband fishing through her cell phone- for what, is not made exactly clear...but he apparently wasn't happy with what he either was trying to find or actually found...

When she asked for it back, the fight began where Mrs. Quintana threatened to destroy her husband's laptop since he spiked her phone to the floor. According to court records, Quintana allegedly grabbed his wife during the chase in the kitchen, threw her to the ground and got on top of her, slapped her, put a kitchen knife to her throat and said: “I’m going to kill you.”

The couple’s son walked in on the fight, and told police that he saw his mother on her back on the kitchen floor and his father on top of her, holding a large kitchen knife.

Phoenix police arrived to find the woman with cuts and bleeding on her left hand. By then, Quintana was gone. And he is also on suspension pending the resolution of all this...

“The Arizona Diamondbacks take this issue and these allegations very seriously and do not condone, nor will we tolerate violence of any kind,” spokesman Josh Rawitch said. “We have taken immediate action to suspend Miguel until this matter is resolved in court.”

Quintana was arrested Wednesday and has a preliminary hearing on the 26th...
