Isn't this receiving improper benefits?

All joking aside, this is a great story.  The Wake Forest baseball coach is donating a kidney to one of his players.

You meet a man on the Oregon Trail. He tells you his name is Terry. You laugh and tell him: "That's a girl's name!" Terry shoots you. You have died of dissin' Terry.

It should be.  It better be.

When I was a Tiger Tutor, I got chastised for giving a basketball player a pencil so he could do his homework. 

Auburn got hit with probation for giving a kid and his struggling family a nice dinner. 

I'm sorry but if the NCAA is going to be tyrannical about 99% of the "improper benefits" cases, then they need to check on this one as well.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Did the pencil have $100 taped to it?

Helluva decision. The donor gets the worst of it in these cases (surgically speaking).

This kid might be able to come back and play ball, but I wonder what they'll do about his drug testing. When you get a kidney, you take a huge amount of steroids. LOL

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
