My wife was told by a co-worker whose husband works with several of the guys on the chain gang that night who heard one of the referees jokingly refer to the San Antonio boys as gangster wannabes and punks, and a few other terms, but I wont express them here.
Someone should act as mediator and get both parties together to talk it over, shake hands and start the healing process. That wont happen in these times of racial tension. No forgiveness is even discussed by our so-called leaders. These kids will be disposed of, for a while, the coach(s) suspended for a short time, and the referee will be scratched from many games by many coaches, if he chooses to return.
This event is a great opportunity for Texas football to demonstrate great character and sportsmanship, qualities we openly strive for. Or it will be a festering wound, a rallying point by fringe groups who will use it to strengthen their own hate-based agenda, and that is pathetic. We are losing our God-given ability to use adversity to our favor...to make us better. The opportunity is still there.
