Police shock naked OSU football player

[stevedeshazer]

Excellent mullet.



CORVALLIS, Ore. – Police used stun guns to take a naked Oregon State football player into custody early Sunday morning at a Corvallis home.

Officers responded to a report of an intoxicated stranger inside a Corvallis home at 5 a.m. Sunday. The residents told police the man had done damage to a computer in an office room, police said.

When police arrived, the man didn't comply with instructions from officers.

"He got down into a 3-point stance, like football players do, like a lineman, and lunged at the officers," Sgt. Mike Mann with the Corvallis Police Department told KVAL News.

The two officers both fired their Tasers at the same time, Mann said. They took Tyler Patrick Thomas, 19, into custody and later learned that he was an Oregon State football player from Kalispell, Mont.

1. Hut one. Hut two. Bzzzzzt n/t

[stevedeshazer]

2. Don't taze me, bro! Especially in that three-point stance. Naked. With a mullet.

Serious shrinkage may result.

Whoa. You'd think a guy would know that.

[IDemo]

3. He's got Blount beat on style points, anyway

[TroglodyteScholar]

4. Separated at birth?

[trumad]

5. I'd use my tazer to...

[sinkingfeeling]

6. As a Buckeye, please edit your OP title to say 'Oregon State'.

[Wednesdays]

7. Seconded...

It might reflect badly on us Oklahoma State University fans. :P

[Ron Green]

8. I knew perfectly well what it meant.

Go Beavs.

:P

[LostinVA]

13. I thought it was Oklahoma State, too

[DURHAM D]

20. Me too. nt

[stevedeshazer]

33. Too late to edit. See you at the Rose Bowl.

:)

9. He's from OREGON STATE. NOT The Ohio State University.

:mad:

[Upton]

11. So?

Out here, OSU mean Oregon State University...

Your East Coast bias is showing again..

[JVS]

14. Quit using OSU, it could be 3 different schools.

[mike r]

18. Exactly. Abbreviations like that are only regional:

Oregon - western U.S.
Oklahoma - central U.S.
Ohio - eastern U.S.

[madinmaryland]

27. Nice post, Barroid. OSU will always stand for The Ohio State University!

[Ron Green]

29. That would be abbreviated TOSU, then.

:-)

[Scurrilous]

24. I clicked on link hoping it was a Buckeye.

:P

[sinkingfeeling]

30. Still smarting from Fiesta Bowl 2003?

[Scurrilous]

32. Yep.

I didn't read a sports page for 6 mos. after that debacle.

:o

31. Oregon State IS OSU.

OSU will be Oregon, Ohio, or Oklahoma depending on what region you live in. One does not "own" it.

The "Corvallis, Ore" was probably a pretty good indication of WHICH OSU, but a link would have been even better.

10. Mulleted, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life.

[LostinVA]

12. Okay, a Taser was probably necessary in this case

THIS is what they're for.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

15. LOL, oh those Beavers.

When they're not kidnapping gay sheep, they're doing this.

[bullwinkle428]

16. Is it going out on a limb to assume that alcohol was involved?

[amandabeech]

19. He sounds completely smashed.

He probably has little or no recollection of what happened.

I'd give him a drunk & disorderly, expungeable by some community service, so long as he didn't hurt anyone.

[guitar man]

17. uhhh

That would be Oregon State...there's only one OSU. :D

[DURHAM D]

23. Why does Pistol Pete toe-in ? nt

[petronius]

21. To be fair, they probably thought they were dealing with a sasquatch

:)

(Considering the state the guy must have been in, that's actually a pretty decent mugshot...)

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

22. Notice in this thread there have been no objections yet to the tasering.

Why do you suppose that is?

[jayfish]

25. Because this, prima facie , appears to a justified case of taser use?

Pining for a fight that doesn't exist?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

26. Well, that's why I'm not upset by the tasering.

But that also describes 9 out of 10 taser threads.

28. At least it wasn't a 72 year old woman at a traffic stop this time.

Charging two cops is pretty damn stupid.
