LU + Basketball = Flames

So my college has a new basketball team of the summer quarter and so far...In my eyes it has been a bad thing. I have no issues with athletes, mainly because I was an athlete for some years, so I can understand the enthusiasm sometimes when it comes to being one.  But on the real though, these dudes are probably some of the most ignorant people I have ever seen in my life. I can't say all of them because I haven't been around the whole team, but the ones that I have had class with, WOW....
This type of behavior is nothing new, but each time I'm around them when they are among each other I feel like I'm back in a place where I don't want to be. Example: dude sits in class talking about how this is college and not high school, he shouldn't have to be early to class and is frustrated cuz he can't wear his hat...All this because his coach told him different. I can't count how many times the word N***a came out his mouth....Im not sayin anyone is perfect and no one around me uses it (clearly not that much), but damn dude, represent yourself in a better way.  Its just sad to see a bunch of young guys who think that the scholarship that they got and activities they do is all that counts.....
17 days left til graduation.....LU is going down in flames....you think they were scared before....oh you just wait....
