    UW never did/does

    If this was a cover up attempt then this is one of the richest things ever. The best story they could come up with was he rescued his 7 year old cousin from drowning in a pool? Shaw went to some USC event and then drove to Palmdale and I read somewhere that would place him at that area at 10 PM.

    Why is a 7 year old in a pool at 10 PM? Why is a 7 year old even up? He had to be there by himself because I am positive even serial killers would help a 7 year old struggling in a pool if they were around.

    Hard for me to believe that this was a cover up but they did hire Sark so I shouldn't put anything past them. Although if they took Shaw's word for it without investigating then that is almost even more ridiculous than if they tried to cover it up.

    Either way is will be VERY interesting.

    There's no way USC intentionally covered it up in that manner. They just didn't take the time to vet the story.
    In all fairness. I don't know any school that would try and check those facts? Guy says he hurt himself saving a 7 year old kid....the school going to call the kid's mom to make sure that's true?

    That would never happen
    If you are going to release a story as crazy as this to the media you better take a little bit of time to verify it.

    Sure it would.
    Ok...what school would do that?

    I realize you should..this isn't the NY Times.

    I'm sure Notre Dame would...just as they confirm education claims of prospective coaches.

    Yes. I'm just speaking from personal professional experience. Kid comes in and hurts himself saying he hurt himself saving a 7 year old kid. The school isn't going to follow-up by making sure the story is true.

    Maybe something like that has happened in a collegiate atmosphere...I've never seen it.

    There's a reason schools and athletic departments have media personnel. It's to vet and verify situations just like this. I'm guessing some of the USC press dept will be losing jobs as soon as Pat HaydenFS returns from the crud.

    It would be glorious. In an AIDS-filled dumpster fire kind of way, that is. They would crush any bit of speculation or hearsay like F3 attacking a plate of nachos. Gotta be the cuntiest bunch of cunts that ever cunted.

    FREE PUB!!!1!!!1!!!!


    The nachos and the cunty cunts.
    Abundance.

    It's almost as touching as the Lennay Kekua story.
