[NU Sports] McGee Fire or Not?

[NEONRye at aol.com]

I agree with Roy's comment, but cannot fathom what John is trying to say  
with his comment.    If it is somehow a slap at liberalism or  perhaps radical 
left movements of the 60's and 70's, what does that have to  do with a DUI in 
2007?  Why, because some people want to decriminalize  marijuana--and what does 
that have to do with a DUII in 2007, when the DAILY  article says the 
"influence" was alcohol (not any type of  drugs)?    
 
I hope that Coach McGee is able to work things out (as a presumably  
first-time offender, he should be able to get a plea with the condition that he  go 
into a "program" or "school" (where you learn not to drink and drive) set by  
the Court).  And then deal honestly and affirmatively with the young men  under 
his charge.  I am confident that unless he "blew" a very high  percentage of 
alcohol in his system, that the University (and Coach Fitz)  can--and 
should--give him a second chance--but with strict conditions that if he  slips again, 
that's it.  I say that as a former prosecutor who now handles  some criminal 
defense as part of my legal practice, including an occasional  "DWI" or "DUI" 
case in NY.
