Damn!

Moral:  don't engage in public underage drinking if you are a cadet at West Point.  Sucks to get caught this way, but there you are.

At least he's getting what he's getting.  Naval Academy would've tossed him.

West Point has taken disciplinary action against King after they were notified of the incident by Houston cops, Raley says. He is being busted to private and deployed to active duty. He had been scheduled to graduate in December with the rank of second lieutenant.

Is the legal drinking age in Houston 24 or higher?

Der Fuhrer Tressel has promised victory against Michigan while speaking to a pro-Tressel rally outside his home.

If there is a loss against Michigan in November? Clearly a stab in the back by the press and Ray Small.

There's a guy at work more obnoxious than you when it comes to sweatervest monkeydom.

I dropped the "I understand Lloyd Carr is available" line on him.  Didn't talk to me the rest of the day.

You should have said RichRod was available. He would have had a stroke.

Where does it even say he was drinking?

I had my facts wrong, it seems.  The story I  read (blog, so there you go) had him as a 20-year-old rising junior at the academy being punished for underage drinking.

Not sure what they were punishing him for, then.  He has left the academy, it seems. http://www.sacbee.com/2011/06/06/3681533/west-pointer-who-sued-diva-labelle.html

His lawyer was saying he had had a couple of drinks, and LaBelle's driver was saying he smelled like booze, was drunk, etc.

He might have been on some sort of probation or something, which might help explain his almost immediate shit-canning (although maybe not, if he was able to just leave like your story says here??).

Edit:  Unless they mean "is now a deployable private" when they say "left the academy."  I like that all but the last couple lines of the story is also included in the caption under the photo of LaBelle.  Heh.

Either would be an excellent choice. They sure know how to beat Michigan.

The police report also apparently notes that he smelled of booze.  I kinda expect he had more than just a "couple" of those airline drinks.  Not that this would be a dismissible offense if he did.

That's an Elvis GrLULZ right there.

The video sure makes it seem like he was attacked without much provocation, other than being near the divas bags.

I don't see how the drinking really enters into the debate - its not like having a couple drinks, even to the point of intoxication, means it is ok for has been pop starts to have their thugs beat the shit out of you.

So, USC was stripped of their 2004 Championship. Does anyone care? We all remember who won the Orange Bowl.

[MadBurgerMaker]

I imagine the USC Athletic Department cares quite a bit.

Also, Oklahoma, which sucks btw, doesn't get the win, but now they only "lost" 0-19, so they probably care too!

True, though the start of this is off-screen.  The guy doesn't seem to me to spend enough time off-screen to get into an argument and punch somebody, though.

Thanks for posting this.  We now know that, if and when when someone starts to argue that  having a couple of drinks, even to the point of intoxication, means it is ok for has-been pop stars to have their thugs beat the shit out of you, you will be ready for them!  The rest of us don't have to prepare to counter that argument, if and when it actually is made.

No.
