MSU priest posts questionable tweet

Found February 19, 2013 on Lost Lettermen: Yardbarker Blogger Network
TEAMS:

From Lost Lettermen:

Father Joseph Krupp, a Catholic priest in East Lansing and diehard Michigan State fan who serves as the football program's team chaplain, posted an extremely questionable tweet prior to the Indiana-Michigan State basketball game Tuesday. This tweet is just all kinds of wrong:

What would possess a member of the Catholic priesthood to write such a thing, considering the countless claims of sexual abuse within the church and the recent Jerry Sandusky scandal, is anyone’s guess.

Worth noting: Father Krupp is also the author of “Smart Answers and Bad Jokes from a Priest Who Proves God Has a Sense of Humor.”

We’re going to file his Tuesday tweet under the “Bad Jokes” category.

Also worth noting; Indiana won 72-68.

It has been awhile since Michigan St students attempted to reclaim their spot at the top of couch burning schools in the nation. But following Tuesday night’s loss to the Hoosiers, some Spartans fans took to their favorite activity following a big game loss: East Lansing firefighters and police responded to three couch fires and a dumpter fire between 10-11 p.m. Tuesday night in...

Tonight, the Michigan St Spartans host the Indiana Hoosiers in what is being billed as the biggest game of the year in the B1G, until next week. Anyway, Sparty fans are pretty pumped up about this game, and their fans are taking to Twitter, even priests.

EAST LANSING — Unfortunately for Michigan State basketball fans, there won’t be a “R.I.P ta da competition” popping up on your timeline tonight, a phrase that senior Derrick Nix tweets after every MSU victory. However, one thing Spartan fans did get tonight is one of the best basketball games of the season, even if it wasn’t in MSU’s favor. Led by Victor Oladipo’s 19...

The curious case of Zeller and Nix: Who’s at fault?

Disclaimer: I find it pretty ridiculous that I am writing these words. I find it even more outrageous that I spent a good portion of my afternoon watching a nine-second video over and over and over again to try to determine if Derrick Nix did or did not hit Indiana’s Cody Zeller on purpose Tuesday night. But with that being said, it’s an interesting topic for debate the day after...

Will Sheehey finished a perfect 9-of-9 from the field en route to a career-high 22 points in Saturday’s blowout win against the Boilermakers. That 9-of-9 mark set an Indiana record for most makes without a miss. Sheehey scored on the break and in Indiana’s halfcourt offense — often making smart reads from the wing to sneak around the defense and score. A look at three smart...

Oladipo leads No. 1 Indiana past No. 4 MSU

EAST LANSING, Mich. On two legs, Victor Oladipo might be the best player in college basketball. As it turns out, the Indiana junior guard isn't bad on one leg, either. Playing on a sprained ankle, Oladipo capped a big game by scoring six points in the final 45 seconds, allowing top-ranked Indiana to escape with its first win at Michigan State in 22 years, 72-68 on Tuesday...
