PPD officer fired after internet post about Dabo Swinney traffic stop

PICKENS ? An Pickens Police Department officer was fired Monday after he posted details of a traffic stop involving Clemson University head football coach Dabo Swinney on a University of South Carolina internet message board using department equipment, police chief Rodney Gregory said Friday.

According to a press release from Gregory, a vehicle driven by Swinney, whose legal name is William Christopher Swinney, was stopped for speeding in the parking lot of Bi-lo in Pickens at around 8 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 3.

Gregory said the vehicle was clocked traveling 63 mph in a 35 mph zone on S.C. 8 within Pickens city limits.

A dashcam video released to the media Friday showed Swinney and a passenger, confirmed to be Swinney?s brother, approach the officer?s car after the stop. Swinney told the officer that he was late for his radio call-in show, which was held at the Bi-lo in Pickens that evening.

As Swinney signed autographs for fans in attendance for the radio show, the officer issued him a citation for speeding, which was reduced to a minimum fine and points, according to Gregory, a negotiation tool used often to help people with fine amounts and point violations for insurance purposes.

FSU finally plays a team with a pulse, and Clemson burns them with a TD bomb on their first possession.

The line in this game was insane...

Oh, and go Clemson!

 

[scarletmike]

That was a very close spot. Clemson is just so hard to stop...and another Clemson TD.

Another season in which FSU is hyped as a title contender, another season in which they are incredibly overrated. Clemson up 28-14.

I wouldn't call FSU incredibly overrated, as Clemson is REALLY good this year, IMO.

 

[BuckJr]

These are both damn good teams that are most likely BCS bowl game bound.

This game is freaking awesome, turn off scUM-ND and watch this masterpiece.

I would like to purchase Chad Morris. Oh wait, we tried that.

This game is going to last 4 hours.

 

[TooTall]

What. A. Game.

Clemson still hasn't fixed that gaping hole called a defense yet.

Until that happens, they aren't really good.

True, it IS the ACC we're talking about here. That being considered, both of these teams are the class of the conference.

Fair enough. I've gotten too pissed off with the FSU hype machine. Thankfully I didn't watch the final minutes of the turd TSUN/ND game.

I agree. The hype surrounding the Florida teams, the SEC, Notre Dame, USC/Oregon gets unbearable at times.
