In one of the most unjust rulings in this nation's history, the West Virginia University money grab case will be heard in West Virginia state court after all. Last month Rich Rodriguez tried to have his case removed to federal court but today the feds said they do not have jurisdiction because WVU is essentially an arm of the State of West Virginia. The travesty of it all. What this means for Coach Rodriguez is that his chances of a fair trial went from about 34% (the federal district his case would have been heard is also in WV) to around .00027%. Fair trial or no, he can appeal the eventual verdict, postpone any payment, and keep this thing in the legal system until his retirement but I doubt that will happen. The sides will eventually come to some settlement and both will claim to have been the winner. The way I see it, I would gladly pay $4 million dollars to get the hell out of West Virginia. (Although Wheeling is a lovely town.)
Man, between this and the last post you might think I am some authoritarian dictator person but I assure you that is not the case. I just think that if I think I am right, everyone else should toe the line and step to. In any case, America, F--- Yeah! USA USA USA USA USA USA.

Ah, Wheeling...the site of one of the first U-turns of our relationship. Or at least the home of a nice pink-tile gas station bathroom. Whatever.
