Liberty University Professor Ruins Woman's Ray Lewis Essay

By Tom Bogert
CBS Local Sports

A young woman at Liberty University decided to write a 10 page paper on Ray Lewis. This young woman must have handed it in to a Pittsburgh Steelers fan because her professor absolutely tore apart any notion of praise towards Lewis.

Never mind her writing style, grasp of the English language nor general thesis, her professor made her most poignant critiques about the player himself, as if this was a conversation at a bar rather than an academic paper at a University.

Among the professor's dislikes include her use of the word "impressive" to describe a likely Hall of Fame career, her reporting the facts that he had murder charges dropped against him and lamenting the fact that she didn't clarify how many women Lewis' six children have come from.

One begins to ponder on what her grade might have been on this particular assignment?

As a fan of repetitive disappointment and frustration, Tom holds Liverpool FC, the New York Knicks and New York Red Bulls near and dear to his heart with occasional joy coming from the New York Giants and New York Yankees.
