Playing Saturday in a big time game near you…

Real shocker here. State prosecutors worked tirelessly around the clock these past 72 hours because ALL charges were dropped this morning against Florida senior safety Tony Joiner regarding felony burglary charges for breaking into a Gainesville tow yard Tuesday morning to retrieve his girlfriend’s impounded car.

Towing company owner Stan Forron has since said the whole thing was a big misunderstanding and that Joiner “arranged” to pay the bill and pick up the car, but surprisingly NO ONE WAS AROUND during that 4:00am window when Joiner dropped by to push open the electric gate and attempt to take the car on his own and “settle up later”.

Are you kidding me? Seriously, does anyone really buy this load of mierda? Where is the media backlash for this nonsense? Again, how is Florida getting a pass here?

Urban Meyer really laid the smack down, stripping Joiner of his captaincy. Ooooooh. I’m sure #19 is crying on his big giant pillow. That “C” on his jersey means very little when you let him get his reps in against #1 LSU this weekend and an effort to save Florida’s season. Friggin hypocrite and b.s. artist.

Meyer hasn’t specified how much Joiner will play, if he’ll be suspended at all or if he’d even start. He did say Joiner would “pay a heavy price for his behavior internally for the next four weeks” yet in the next breath said “he will travel with the team for our game vs. LSU”.

I wonder how many sets of stadium stairs Joiner will have to run for it to be considered a “heavy price” paid.

Bet the farm Joiner sees significant playing time this weekend as the out-manned Gators need every veteran defender they have to pull off the upset in Death Valley. And also bet the farm that ol’ Mr. Forron is a diehard Gator and some sort of a booster who got a call from a certain higher up within the U of Florida athletic department telling him to drop those charges and consider “Towgate” a complete and utter misunderstanding.

Pathetic. As much as I hate LSU, I hope the Tigers run absolute train on the Gators this weekend.
