Sparty @ Purdue

“I was more mad at myself for having my hand out. That was really undisciplined on my part,” said McQuaid, who was the only other Spartan beside Winston to score in double figures with 12 points. “He just made a smart play and got the foul on me. The ref made the right call.”

Ouch for the M$U fans whining about that call.

Congrats on the regular season home win against MSU. Big stuff, bro.

Just pointing out it was a clear foul to all the whiners saying it wasn't. Maybe if you guys cared as much about M$U athletes raping and sexually assaulting women with no repercussions from the University as you do about foul calls during a game, the University would be a better spot.

Sorry, I forgot Izzo wore a ribbon, so that makes it ok he ignored athletes' actions.

And this is what blows about ESPN conflating a bunch of different allegations, providing half the picture, cherry picking police reports and statements, and framing it as actual news. You add in people just reading headlines and suddenly Larry Nassar represents MSU football and basketball. Any allegation is then just proof regardless of any facts.

So now we’ve got a guy like this using a child molester and a bogus news segment that possibly even derailed Paula Lavigne’s career to burn MSU and MSU fans/alumni. Well bud, congrats on that. You sound like a real joy. Hopefully whatever sucks about your life gets resolved and you can find some happiness. Just a piece of advice for you. Using rape and molestation to rip a sports team is a pretty low brow and it makes you look like a loser. Be bigger than sexual assault. Strive to be better than rape insults.

Nice try, but it wasn't just Nassar. Appling and Payne got away with it. Dantonio has buried his head with his players. Think about the victims for a little bit before excusing a culture of disgusting behavior because you need your sports team to win to feel better.

Heh, Appling and Payne? Read the police report. The prosecuting attorney made a statement to ESPN that was printed in the DetNews a year ago basically warning them to back off. I don’t remember the exact quote but multiple attorneys involved issued finely crafted statements. That’s why Paula Lavigne and Co stopped all of a sudden. Do you find it to be a bit odd that she’s fallen off the face of the Earth?

Your mind has been made up. Totally fine but just because you’re being willfully ignorant doesn’t mean other people can’t use their brain.

Congrats on the win.

Playing devils advocate here, but you do realize there is more than one reason for someone to back off on charges right? Yes, they could be lying, but they could also be under pressure.

I’m well aware there could be various reasons but I don’t think it’s a coincidence once attorneys began to dispute what was being reported and any insinuation they were ignoring any facts or were pressured by MSU not to bring charges. It’s one thing to pile on and slam MSU but once ESPN only aired and talked about half the story and insinuated any wrong-doing, things went quiet quickly. I don’t find that to be merely a coincidence and I don’t think attorneys just like to issue finely combed statements without purpose just for the hell of it.

The police report with the transcript showing Appling pressured a vulnerable female into having sex after she said no?

The report is 77 pages. You are taking two lines out of a 77 page report and pretend you have the whole story.

The DAs office, the title IX office, and OCR all came to the same conclusion that no crime was committed.

You know more than them though huh

Would you agree that a witness saying the victim said no and the witness saying appling convinced her to have sex after she said no is an important few lines?

I’m sorry but at some point you just can’t troll over this. If you read that transcript and don’t come away with the conclusion that Appling is a scum bag then there is something wrong with you as a human being.

Scumbag and rapist are two different things.

Who is trolling in this thread?

The difficult part about Appling and Payne is the girl had no visible marks or any signs of forcible rape. So it has to be date rape. She didn’t take nor was she given any drug either. Then we get to a he said, she said debate. As a result, the prosecuting attorney didn’t bring charges and even stated no crime occurred.

I get that you’re a UM fan. A huge UM fan based on all indications on this forum. It’s just hard for me to take you seriously when every take you have is anti MSU.

Wait, what? You truly believe that sexual assault only occurs if there is physical force or drugs? Dude.......


It’s not just he said she said. Payne, an eye witness, says the girl refused by saying No.


And if you agree with me that the transcript makes him a scumbag, can you elaborate on that? What about the transcript makes you think that?

Just stop. It's over. You're taking 2 lines out of a 77 page document, that is only from one "witness" point of view when he answered goading questions. Appling never gave his side, the woman never gave her side publicly, and multiple prosecutors decided that there was not only not enough evidence to charge, but didn't believe a crime took place.

There was no cover up by Izzo. There was no cover up by Dantonio. Neither had anything to do with Nassar.

You think Payne lied about the girl saying stop and Appling pressuring her into going further? Hot take.

I know your original defense to that was “she was just saying that about the condom”, but when I showed you the transcript that you clearly hadn’t read you moved the goalposts.

I do not, nor did I state sexual assault can only occur by taking drugs or being forced. That’s why I mentioned kind of an all inclusive “date rape”.

Have you read the police report?

Here is an excerpt.

“That was before. That was because he had came towards me and I saw like I could feel he had shorts on and that’s when I said, oh so you can just, you know, be done when you want to but you don’t even ask what I want?.... I don’t want it like that. I don’t want it to be like this.”

I’m no attorney and I don’t play one on TV but a defense attorney is going to have a field day with that response directly by the alleged victim. Keep in mind this would be merely seconds after being allegedly raped. That is going to be tough to just shrug off in court.

The detectives interviewing her had her repeat portions of the above to make sure they understood her correctly. I’m not going to say disparaging things about the alleged victim, so I won’t elaborate further. I’ll let others draw their own conclusion.

Most non MSU fans that I’ve seen read the transcript come away thinking Appling sexually assaulted her by pressuring her into sex after she said no.

You guys aren’t okay with people reaching that conclusion because he played for MSU.

I figured your response wouldn’t confront what I posted. It’s damning. It would be ripped apart in court.
 
Yikes Hail....you really should find a new hobby, these are awful takes even from you.

And it's pretty ridiculous that posters can just play the rape card anytime they want to derail a thread and turn things against MSU or MSU posters. Posters like that moron come out of the woodwork just to poke the bear....17 posts in 13 years. The B1G in-season thread was disgusting last year.

The sad part is facts don’t even matter to some people. It just boils down to sports. Really pathetic stuff displayed by the Purdue and UM fans in this thread.

The lengths MSU fans will go to in order to defend Payne and Appling is ridiculous. Imagine if Payne and Appling played for Michigan. I’m assuming you’d have a different viewpoint on the situation.

UM has their own version of Payne and Appling. I choose to not post it as the players were never charged with anything. I’m not a complete and utter lowlife.

Hmm, so the lowlifes are the ones that have a problem with sexual assault and rape, while excusing a pattern of crime and cover-ups is no big deal. Izzo wore a ribbon so that makes everything ok.
Interesting take from the M$U contingent.

Search Gibbons and Gibbons Rape on Rivals. MSU posters will call Gibbons a rapist though charges were never filed and then turn around and say Appling couldn't have sexually assaulted anyone because charges were never filed.


I personally think both are pieces of shit. I wish Hoke would have handled Gibbons different and I wish Izzo would have handled Appling different.

Would you consider JRMSU a "complete and utter lowlife"? Look how often he refers to Gibbons as a rapist.

I could post Hacksaw Jim and Spartacus drilling home the "Gibbons is a rapist", too, but they are main borders. JRMSU at least posts here. All complete and utter lowlifes in your opinion, or do they get passes as MSU fans?

It’s highly doubtful I was hacked. Possible but not probable.

It would appear I used that as a burn to rip some other poster? I’m not sure, I don’t remember and I can’t imagine ever going through my posting history let alone anyone else’s. Seems extremely boring.

I’m not one to start a thread about Lewan or Gibbons. It’s tough. They don’t get to defend themselves. After seeing so much incorrect crap just thrown at MSU I can’t then turn around and drone on and on about a situation that I have very little knowledge about. I have read the Internet rumors via that watchdog group.

Regarding my post above, I’m pretty sure the Purdue guy is just a schtick. Probably a poster that normally posts here but has a throw away account. Log in, throw some barbs, log out, and there you go.

The search function is a lot easier than you think unless you’re as old as Bert.

Can you agree that plenty of MSU fans jump to Gibbons being a racist despite also using the “Appling was never charged” defense? Michigan homers do the dame in reverse.
 
the MSU poster using the Knight defense, [when rape is inevitable just lay back and enjoy it] NO still means NO so for Appling to continue it is indeed rape, outside forces played a huge role in how this ended.
 
Payne basically said on video that Appling raped her. Not sure how any of these Spartys are defending it. Perhaps these scumbags don’t have daughters or care about their mothers?

I’m glad you’re not an attorney. Good lord the police would have half the country locked up.

This is like a hot take from a kindergartner. Never talk to the police without an attorney. Especially if you have a learning disorder like Payne. They will talk you into whatever they want and beat you with years of experience.

I don't know man. If you can read the police report and not be disturbed, I don't know what that says about you, but it's probably not anything good.

I doubt that the intent was rape, but when one of the two being accused of assault comes out and says that it was apparent that the girl was an unwillingly participant, the victim's alleged learning disabilities are grossly irrelevant.

What happened in that dorm room is something that happens at a lot of institutions, not just in America, but around the world. It is a culture in need of change and this is a classic example of how athletic departments are a handicap for change. This is not a knock on MSU only. This kind of shit happens all over.

I don’t think it’s a “knock” on MSU. It would be against the ELPD and the Ingham County Prosecutor’s Office. They are the ones that investigated and subsequently decided not to prosecute. MSU has nothing to do with them which makes the ESPN report even more laughable, as if MSU is some sort of judge, jury, and executioner.

It’s just that I’ve never heard of a rape victim telling their rapist(s) that they didn’t want to have sex like that and that they were upset because the rapist stopped raping them and put on a pair of shorts. That’s very odd to me and I think it’s likely a big reason the prosecutor declined to prosecute and that they made a statement no crime had occurred. The quotes directly from the police report are posted in the first page. I copied it right from the report. Maybe she misspoke. That’s entirely possible. Maybe she was so distraught that she wasn’t thinking clearly. I’m not saying they’re 100% innocent. I think it’s shady. It’s not right to use someone for sex and dismiss them. Does that make them a rapist?

I realize I’m a MSU fan. I realize it’s a bad look to defend anyone accused of sexual assault. I realize it’s even worse during this #metoo era. But at some point males need to have rights too. One single statement made by a guy without an attorney being interrogated by trained professionals does not make a crime.

Fair points. But situations like these are an opportunity for programs to put morals ahead of sports. It can be determined that the players conduct does not represent the program whether or not a crime can be proven or if the players can even be prosecuted. I agree fully with the protection for the males as you brought up. But it doesn't look like we are talking about a completely innocent person here. It is clear that a line was crossed whether it be a crime or not. If nothing else, I hope this will be used as a learning experience for all moving forward.
 
MSU fans are in denial just like PSU fans that keep saying nothing happened at their school,

there are a couple posters on Hawkeye Report that are trying to claim Iowa covered for PP, but hate to say this but there was no coverup as he was charged with a crime and the charges were reduced and Alford gave him a 2nd chance, the 2nd time he was dismissed but the damage to the Iowa fans was done and most wanted him gone after the 1st offense,

now one of those same poster is making shit up about people in the Athletic department snuck into his apartment and removes Video taped of him having sex. talk about lying thru his teeth. this poster is a ISU fan.

in IC where when a Athlete sneezes its front page news.
