"Gone for Good"
In the video below you will find Renardo Sidney, up in the stands throwing haymakers at his Mississippi State teammate, fresh off a one-game suspension from his coach and a week or so removed from an NCAA-imposed suspension that lasted all of last year and the first nine games this season.
Clearly, Sidney’s a mess.
The 6-foot-10, 275-pound Mississippi native should know better. No, make this he has to know better than to get into it with teammate Elgin Bailey with all the world to see.
The worst part about learning this is reading the comments at the end of the article. People were saying things like "you can take the boy out of the ghetto but you can't take the ghetto out of the boy". That entire sentence infuriated me. It's hard not to agree with the article itself because it is the parent's job to train him to be a man not just a paycheck, however he is still a young man and can be molded to be better but not with remarks like that to make him even more angry and bitter. I hope the best for the guy!
Bridget, good point and thanks for the comment. But this dude has been given more opportunities than most. When is enough a enough? As far as the comments, some people just hate life, that's why they so angry! Merry Christmas.
