That is too bad. I like University of Waterloo because they allow strippers in the dorm.Head Coach, Denis McPhee's troops are sidelined because of steroids.
The strippers in the dorm have also disappeared. Hee, hee, hee. Insert "naked stripper in dorm" smilie here.Another destructive example of the cons of me graduating and leaving this university.
They need me.
True to a certain extent, but I think it serves the dual purpose of A)sending a strong message as a deterrent to future players and B)showing the powers that be in College Football that they are taking it seriously and possibly avoiding a ban that may have been longer than the one year they have imposed upon themselves.Stupid decision.
Ruin so many lives because of a decision of a few?
Idiotic and overly politically correct nonsense.
Bullshit.

No decision is going to work for everyone. And as opposed to the U.S., a very, very small percentage of these players will be making their livelihood (and a Canadian livelihood is meagre) from football. Which also makes one wonder why they would do steroids. It's not like they will make millions like their American counterparts, so the risk reward ratio is totally unworthy of the risk.OK tell that to the father of a UW player who was clean
No one of you perfect little 4 points has anything to do with any of the other players.1. Former UW player Nathan Zetter, charged with possession and trafficking. (Police still investigating)
2. Jordan Meredith and Joe Surgenor suspended for 2 years. CIS career should be over not just suspended.
3. Biggest doping scandal in Canadian University Sports.
4. 9 positive tests on one team, you can be certain there are more using steroids.
So very very wrong. This is Canada, not the U.S.These men went to that school to play football. They could have gone anywhere to get an education.
As a UW grad myself I am disappointed by the conduct of these idiots, and think the university acted appropriately in cancelling the entire season.This decision is reactionary PC bullshit.
1. I never called you a name or insulted you. By saying that you don't have a clue, wasn't meant as an insult, and your reply just verifies my statement.No one of you perfect little 4 points has anything to do with any of the other players.
Football is a team sport.

Keep calling me names and insulting me that's fine, my opinion of you HOF is so low it's invisible.
Anyone who agrees with this decision knows nothing about team sports.

"Those young men who tested positive should be expelled for using drugs".
You can't be Serious. Can you imagine if any student who used drugs got expelled?
But there's two I's in idiot which is what Bob Copeland is.Athletic Director Bob Copeland stated, "It is a team sport and they are being punished as a team."
You can't have your cake and eat it too. All for one and one for all, the team is only as strong as its weakest link. There is no "I" in team.

Oracle, Bob Copeland did not make the decision; however, he is the athletic director and has to face the media and public. Bob Copeland is no more than a middle manager being tugged by both arms. The university made the decision and they wouldn't be consulting Mr. Copeland.
Where is Head Coach Denis McPhee? On administrative leave and not saying a word that may be his smartest move ever. The only coach that has spoke out also resigned and he's a parent of a player. I wonder does anyone have information on Coach McPhee?
We can all agree to disagree. The university has made its decision.
