Montee Ball assaulted on UW campus

[osugrad21]

Seriously my first thought was "gotta pay your dealer bro".

My first thought was he nailed somebody's lady...

 

[DaddyBigBucks]

A more distressing thought is, why haven't we been able to stop him? :(

If by "we" you mean the football team; I'd say 85 yards on 17 carries is about as close to stopping him as anyone came.

IMHO the Buckeyes did stop him except for one run that went for 40 yards.

My apologies if there was sarcasm here that I missed.

You might be onto something here.

It's obvious they did not like him correcting people on the new pronunciation of his name.

Criminals: Hey Montee, wut's up

Ball: It's pronounced Montay,

Criminals: Somebody punch this mutha fugger

It's the Peoples Republic of Madison. What do you expect? Gestapo tactics should be routinely accepted.

Thre will soon be tanks on your lawn.

You brought this on yourself, I don't want to hear the whining.

We moved into a condo after that unfortunate incident.

He didn't get a running start at the assailants

 

[Fungo Squiggly]

He didn't get a running start at the assailants

And didn't have five 330 pound behemoths holding the assailants down.

Re: Ball suffered head injuries after being attacked by five men near Wisconsin's campus around 2:15 a.m. Wednesday.

I wonder if Bielema ever told his players that "nothing good ever happens after 2 AM"?



Seriously, let's hope his injuries aren't serious/permanent. We all remember what Ty Moeller went through after getting "cold cocked" in a Florida bar.

Yep. Badgers OL MO.

 

[Bucky32]

The Van Buren Boys?

At a human level, I wish Mr Ball the best.

But whoever said that fandom was humanity? And are these not the same people who try to hurt our players by sitting on them?

Ball, who was bleeding from his head, was taken to the hospital by ambulance, treated and driven back to campus by a police officer within a few hours, DeSpain said.

An unreimbursed ride? Is that not right up there with unreimbursed finger painting on someone's arm?

The last time I got a free ride in a police car .... well, never mind.

Witnesses said Ball may have exchanged words with the men before they attacked him, DeSpain said.

Ball indicated in statements to the police that ... the attack was unprovoked,

Oh me oh my. A possible false statement to a police officer? Does that not rank right up there with making a grammar error on BP?

This was my immediate thought as well.

Women. Always fucking shit up.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Witnesses said five men jumped the victim........The criminals were last seen running south on N. Frances St. toward the Kohl Center.

What time does Bo Ryan have his boys start practice again?
