The former Husker football players Deante, Courtney, and Ronnell Grixby have been charged in Sarpy county for a violent incident involving one of the player’s former girlfriends.  The fight happened at a bowling alley of all places, and apparently the woman was physically injured in the fight. 

The Grixby brothers fall into a long line of Nebraska football players who have had run-in’s with the law.  Despite this trend, the media and citizens of Nebraska continue to adore the football team, which is half-comprised of thugs who would have no other future if it were not for football.  Many of these players are not smart, major in flimsy degrees such as sociology or communications, and exhibit a thuggish “hip-hop” mentality off the field.  Yet white Nebraska families still teach their kids that these are people we should look up to.  The daughters of white families fall victim to the cultural pervasion of dating black men when they come to Lincoln, because almost all of the contact they’ve had with blacks has been obtained through the media.

What happened to the days when our national heroes used to be those who were leading pioneers in various scientific fields, or champions of exploration and achievement like Charles Lindbergh?  It is an informative sign that our culture has been destroyed when little girls grow up wanting to be like the trashy pop singers on TV, and the little boys grow up worshipping blacks for being able to catch a ball.  When you look at the big picture, you realize how silly it all is.
