    Wouldn't "midget punching" be more appropriate? I know "clown stomp" is a phrase that actual people use...but I feel like "midget punch" captures the spirit of the Domers while being something I would truly like to see.

    My $.02.

    This puts the pressure all back on Stephanie to put on her Hillary big girl boots and get back in the game.

    SC wins this one.

    Alabama never paid Mike.

    This is about employment law, it will be about contract law.

    Sark was shitfaced at work ...

    Mike never signed his CONTRACT before heading out to win over the hearts and minds of the Alabama boosters who didn't want him hired in the first place... and were determined to expose him to another Destiny.

    Can USC just write it off against his bar tab expense report?

    Pat Haden and USC made it abundantly clear that they would support him through "treatment." Once you do that....you are f-ed.

    Now he is protected under ADA. They needed to fire him the night of the Salute to Troy event because that behavior is not tolerated. By not doing so they explicitly said that behavior is tolerated. My wife is an HR Director and is going through almost the exact same thing with an employee of theirs....they supported him through treatment and he re-lapsed and now they are screwed.

    USC likely has better lawyers than your wife.

    Uh, no.

    This is the one piece of this that Haden has handled correctly. Following the August incident, Haden asked Seven whether he needed treatment, and Seven said no. When the shit hit the fan last weekend, Haden's leave-of-absence-plus-treatment reaction was specifically aimed at defeating an ADA claim. As were his pointed remarks about Seven showing up impaired at work -- no employer has to accommodate that shit.

    Haden's got 99 problems, but the ADA ain't one.
