Hayseed Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Sorry, but this kind of behavior is indefensible. He should kicked off the team, expelled from school and spend some time in jail to reflect on his callous cruelty towards these wonderful creatures. That there is funny........the coons are weighing in. Quote Link to comment
1Huskermom Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Take joe 5700's idea. Have him walk the dogs at the shelter. They always need volunteers. kid does a good thing and learns not to advertise his stupidity. Call it a day. Quote Link to comment

JJ Husker Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I've never considered myself a yuppie and have always thought it was a bit of a disparaging remark. But, after seeing how Eagle1 uses and defines the word, I'm pretty sure I would be proud to be that sort of yuppie. There is a very important distinction between killing an animal, in a humane way, for a good reason and killing an animal in a non-humane way or for no good reason at all. I guess some "non-yuppies" don't get that. And, who in the hell would skin a coon for $2? Hate to tell ya but there are better ways to make a buck. Lots better ways. 4 Quote Link to comment

huskerhill Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Wow. The are a lot of pu&&ies on this board. It's an effin coon. I don't care if he took a selfie with it and I couldn't care less if he beat it with a shop towel. For dbag Eichorst to suspend him for it because PETA is absolutely bs. I suppose all the yuppies on this board will tell me now that we have a team rule that says you can't kill coons and take selfies with them? Just exactly what is he being suspended for? Highly doubt there's a rule against killing coons and there isn't a law against it either. Our AD is exactly what Bo said he is and he just keeps proving it. And all you defending Eichorst make me vomit in my mouth. You obviously didn't grow up in a rural area where coon hunting is a popular past times for kids and hell for that matter, adults. I literally just got in from taking my sons coon calling/hunting. And guess what, clubs are cheaper than bullets! Oh no, now everyone will condemn me for killing a poor defensless animal. Oh well, another $12 for my kids college fund.He's suspended for being a dumbass. And, please explain to a fellow hunter, what in the hell is the point of raccoon hunting? I guess that's your opinion. My opinion he isn't a dumbass. He was bored and found something to do that yuppies and town folk don't understand. I could care less that he posted a picture of it. Guys post pictures of themselves with deer, turkeys, other game when they get them don't they? Should they be suspended? What about guys that make a bad shot on a deer and end up cutting it's throat? Suspend them too? Growing up, we not only hunted coons, possums, coyotes, hell we'd trap them and even catch them with our bare hands. Why? Because it is fun! Shoot, we caught a coon, took pictures with it, and tamed it. Small town, not much to do, you grow up finding things to do. The point of coon hunting? Well....right now, they are $12 a piece sold to my fur buyer, $14 if I skin them myself. $18 for a black squirrel. Badgers will bring more and so will coyotes. Using a call, you can make $1500-$2000 in a pretty short time if you work at it.Had Jack jumped into lions cage at henery doorly and been eatin.. Should the lion be killed.. Bludgeoned to death by a wrench? yes that is a perfect analogy lol Quote Link to comment
Dr. Mantis Toboggan Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 If it was a badger would anyone in here be upset? Just say'n Quote Link to comment
BaytownHusker Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I remember watching a certain show about a Husker legend and they showed many pics of him in a field hunting. No one complained about that. Quote Link to comment
Eagle1 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yep JJ you're a yuppie! Congrats! I don't skin them, takes too much time. But I have, and it's fun to skin, stretch, and dry them. It's a craft. But I do kill them, for fun. $12 is side benefit Quote Link to comment

BaytownHusker Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Naw. It's still killing an innocent animal. It would be didfernt if he had done it to a pet cat or dog. Not a frickin coon or wild animal Quote Link to comment

Beemer13 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 1.has this rumor been substantiated? 2. If true, I would like details, how long, from what, etc. 3. As a manager it is necessary to discipline an employee for a behavior that is inappropriate. The act itself is what it is, but to post it online for the world to see is bone headed and should result in some disciplinary action. I bet next time Jack will think twice before posting something potentially offensive online. FWIW, I can't stand PETA and have no problem with what Jack did, however these kids need to get a grip on the use of social media and understand the impact it can have, both on them personally and on their team. This was a teaching moment and I'm sure if it is true the suspension is minor on the big scheme of things but also conveys the message to think before posting! Quote Link to comment
