GAINESVILLE -- Florida offensive lineman Mike Pouncey said on Wednesday that he expects Chris Rainey to return to the team.
"He's doing good," Pouncey said. "He made a mistake. I talked to him yesterday. He's doing good. He just can't wait to get back."
Rainey was arrested for felony stalking last week and has not participated in team activities since the incident. Pouncey and Rainey are close friends. Rainey lived with Pouncey when the two played high school football for the Lakeland Dreadnaughts. While Pouncey seemed confident of Rainey's return, the offensive lineman also said he doesn't know when Rainey will be allowed to rejoin the team.
A spokesman for the University of Florida later advised reporters that Pouncey did not speak on behalf of Florida coach Urban Meyer.

It won't surprise me if he plays again this season. Not one bit.
Posted by: MonsterMuckyWuck! | September 22, 2010 at 03:14 PM
Wait, he lived at another guy's house in order to play for Lakeland? Shocking that a Gator felon would cheat the rules like that.
Hey, I say let him play, it keeps him off the streets!

Just exactly what language does Michael Irving speak ?

Since we don't know who "Michael Irving" is, I don't know how we could answer that question.

Okay, I admit, that was just wrong.
He WAS playing and that didn't stop him from hunting, stalking, and threatening an older woman at 3 in the morning. Letting him play won't keep us safe, putting him BEHIND BARS is what needs to be done.

Even Gator apologist Mike Bianchi has stopped hiding the constant criminal behavior done by the Gators.

Wow, another cheap insult from the racist fan of the team whose biggest seller this year is this:

"He made a mistake."????
Missing a tackle or dropping a pass is making a mistake. Stalking and threatening someone's life is more than a mistake.
That reminds me of a blog headline I saw here recently:
"Gators receiver Frankie Hammond: A good guy who made a poor decision"
Thank you Joe, for not making a blog article reading

I don't think that was UT/NCAA approved clothing hence the sales weren't tracked. So I don't know how you can proclaim that to be UT's biggest seller.
As far as top selling merchandise, here are the rankings:

Actually, jo, not sure if you caught the real insult he was throwing there.
A quick google showed me what his latest insult was all about.
He was using a slang term known by prison inmates for selling crack.
http://www.insideprison.com/glossary.asp
And of course, his Pata reference is about Bryan Pata, a young man that was murdered, giving this multinamed troll all kinds of joy, because that young man played football for the Miami Hurricanes.
Even the ID of Nino Brown is a reference to an old drug dealer movie, "New Jack City". This guy is well-versed in drug lore, disturbingly so.
Posted by: Bloody Credit Cards | September 22, 2010 at 03:51 PM
Well, that's not cool. I didn't catch the Pata reference. Some people have no respect. Karma will catch up to them.

You forgot "The Carter". That is the apartment complex were Nino Brown and the CMB(Cash Money Brothers)produced and distributed the rock.
Posted by: Nino Brown | September 22, 2010 at 03:59 PM
Since that was in a different troll message, there was no way for me to catch it in the original.

Nice job, teachers pet. Will Karma be catching up to the guy who post under a dead girls name?
Posted by: Nino Brown | September 22, 2010 at 04:03 PM
No, because the difference is that I did it in HONOR of her, and in disgust over how she was abused in death.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8EGnmOtJQU
I didn't accuse her of being at FAULT for her death like you did to Pata and Taylor.

jo, can you set up a poll on here?
I am guessing that Rainey plays in the Alabama game, but some others suggest he is done for the year.
So, when does Rainey play again for the Gators?
Kentucky? Not likely.
Alabama? I say yes.
LSU?
MSU?
UGA? Definitely by then.
Vandy?
USC?
AppyState?
FSU?
Bowl Game?
Not this season? Highly doubt it.
I sure would LOVE to hear when others figure he will be back in a non-striped uniform....
Posted by: Feral Cat | September 22, 2010 at 04:13 PM
OK, poll coming shortly.

So your saying it wasn't his fault? He shouldn't have taken over the carter.
I have poll too:
Will Feral/Bloody Credit Card/Canes Over Gators/RockyTop 2-1 receive the keys to Coral Gables for his fine work protecting the canes name on the Gator Blog in addition to bringing the racist Douglas Diaz to justice?
- No
- Yes
- only in his lonely mind
Posted by: Nino Brown | September 22, 2010 at 04:27 PM
I wasn't Rocky Top.
I didn't bring Douglas Diaz to justice.
I don't live in Coral Gables.
Even then, I vote no. Doing right is it's own reward.

Ufelony is a joke, Meyer is a joke, the entire trailerville of Gainsville is a joke.
The NCAA Sanctions are coming soon enough, money from agents was just the beginning. Now over 30 arrest and this happened when the NCAA investigators were still on campus. Nice!

After Rainey does all of his extra running, he will be back on the team just in time for the game against Alabama on Oct.2nd
