Old habits die hard.

UCLA basketballers arrested in China

I have to believe a Chinese prison is no joke.

Three UCLA men's basketball players -- including LiAngelo Ball, the younger brother of Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball -- were arrested in China just days before Friday's season-opening game against Georgia Tech in Shanghai, sources told ESPN's Jeff Goodman.One source told ESPN the group of players -- which also included freshmen Cody Riley and Jalen Hill -- were arrested on shoplifting charges.
The players are being questioned about stealing from a Louis Vuitton store that is located next to the team's hotel.

Looks like they are being held for '2 or 3 weeks' to iron things out while the rest of the team is flying home. Apparently they have video tape of them stealing from 3 stores, not 1. As the days go by, I am imagine the drumbeat of 'why isn't Trump doing anything about these poor boys' will steadily increase. When they do get back here, I would hope UCLA / NCAA deals out their own punishment.

4 high school FB players assault teammate

Not sure what level of Minnesota stardom these players achieved. More entitled, pampered azzholes. Enjoy jail.

The alleged beating of a high school football player – allegedly by four of his teammates -- has a small Minnesota town debating the topic of bullying.The four players at Blue Earth Area High School, ages 16 to 18, face felony charges -- including third-degree assault causing substantial bodily harm -- and aiding and abetting.
Authorities say an 18-year-old senior, Wyatt Tungland, is accused of punching a 16-year-old teammate in the face and head while the other three teens held him down.
Tungland's attorney, Chris Ritts, says witness accounts don't support the charges.
The alleged assault reportedly happened at a house party Oct. 19 in Winnebago, Minn. The victim told police he had been in a dispute with one of the suspects, was pushed down, punched in the face and knocked unconscious.

Tonya Hurley, the boy’s mother, told the newspaper that while her son was home, injured and ill, the four suspects went on to play in their team’s state playoff game.
Authorities arrested the suspects last week — days after Blue Earth was eliminated from postseason play, the Star-Tribune reported.
Winnebago Police Chief Eric Olson said it was unclear why it took three weeks for the assault to be reported to police,
Some parents at the school board meeting suggested it may have had to do with the suspects being star players on the football team.

A Georgia Tech football player straight up KNOCKED OUT his teammate during a fight in the GT athletic facility ... and TMZ Sports has the video.

The players are GT starting defensive backs Step Durham and Lance Austin -- who got into a heated altercation earlier this year, before Spring Practice began.

As a shirtless Lance walks towards his teammate, Step ... he gets hit with a quick right hook on the chin -- instantly putting Lance to sleep.

Sooner accused of rape

He said, she said claims are the hardest to validate. 2 people know the truth and 1 of them is lying. This will be interesting to watch going forward. Bowl season is upon us. I bet the kid isn't suspended.

A woman who filed an emergency order of protection against Oklahoma Sooners running back Rodney Anderson said that Anderson raped her at her apartment.Anderson, through a statement issued by his attorney, said the allegation is "patently false."
In the protective order filing submitted Monday, the woman said she was drinking at a bar on Nov. 16 when she met Anderson for the first time. She said she was planning to take an Uber home, but Anderson's friends "were insistent that he take" her home.
The woman said that this past weekend, through a conversation with a friend, she started "recalling images and feelings of him forcing his fingers" inside her and biting her. She said she tried to get away to put clothes on, but he followed her and asked what she was doing.
