the reaction of the sports news world (or just this one writer) and the reaction of people on Greekchat. Also, the attitude in the article, where he's just being a party pooper and should just go along with it, is one I have seen about Greek hazing, if less frequently on GC than other places.

An interesting conversation could occur as to what exactly Bryant's employment at the Cowboys requires him to do.
