Well, give Ohio State trustee Jerry Jurgensen credit — he tried.
"We have a lot to look at in sort of the soul-searching of what is most important in the game of life," Jurgensen said in the wake of the football scandal that cost coach Jim Tressel his job and certainly will cost the school something in the way of NCAA penalties.
"The cracks here weren't really cracks of rules and procedures," he said. "They were cracks in a value system."
How well did that fly in Columbus? You may easily imagine.
"I don't think we have a lot of soul-searching to do, not at all," blurted board chairman and major donor Lex Wexner. "We have a lot of heart-celebrating to do for the good that this university does."
What a clown.
Speaking of clowns, OSU President and Main Bozo Gordon Gee quickly echoed the sentiment of Booster Boy:
"The university is moving forward,” he said, “and we feel very strongly about the fact that we have much to celebrate today."
A little Three Dog Night anyone?
Cel-e-brate … Cel-e-brate … dance to the sanct-ions
