Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

T.W.I.T.S. - This Week In Twitter: Syracuse

Yes I know this normally runs on early on Mondays but I had a football game to get to and the ensuing hangover to fight through the next day. However Paul Harris seems to think he could be suiting up for the big game one day:

Why couldn't Pauly have made this decision a little sooner ... ya know when Greg Robinson needed all the help he could get.

While this may sound like Dick Vitale's wet dream, I don't see it happening anytime soon. Also the fact that he can somehow get to the combine without ever playing football in his life is amusing. Hey Goodell, if Paul can get a look why can't I? Harris seemed to have second thoughts a minute later when he realized he would be getting smacked around by big men:

The Most Disappointing Breakfast Tweet:

Yup, the cream cheese rule is 100% true. There has been a fight to overturn it tho. It looks like Fab isn't a fan as well:

Star-divide

Best #FabMeloRumor:

For those of you who don't know or have been under a rock #FabMeloRumors started up while the big guy was on suspension. It looks that he's embraced the trend:

Since he's no stranger to referring to himself in the third person, he's flipped the trend and started tweeting #FabMeloFacts about himself:

Super-lame Superbowl Party-Goer of the Week:

Looks like the Superbowl was a bit too boring for Freshman Albert Nassar as he decided nap time was a must ... well let's hope he was napping there and not passed out.

Not even going to touch Dion this week ... Sean already did an excellent job of it.

It's seriously against the rules to provide spreads for the bagels?

Nope

I remember hearing about that a while back…probably from Jay Bilas who’s a huge anti-NCAA regulations guy (and rightfully so).

I'm guessing Rutgers

Rutgers probably balked and said that providing spreads for bagels would put smaller schools that can’t afford cream cheese at a disadvantage.

Yeah

I remember reading an article about the “cream cheese rule” awhile back. I forget the asinine reasoning behind it, but it’s 100% legit.

Bagels are considered a snack under NCAA Guidelines and can be given out whenever

If you add cream cheese or peanut butter then the NCAA considers it a Meal

This looks like a joke

But I’m sure that’s word for word from the NCAA rule book. Those guys are hysterical.

So, the unlimited meal plan that comes with the Scholly is cool

but cream cheese for the bagels in the locker room is out. Can someone please tell me how the NCAA is still in business?

After some googling

Apparently it’s to keep some schools by providing recruits with too ridiculous a spread (aka we have bagels accompanied by a 5 star meal), but c’mon, someone didn’t put their thinking cap on when writing the rule.

Heh.

Because then it's just a snack

If you put butter on your lobster, however, it becomes a meal
