FIU murders a Miami player? Just saying ...

All avid sports fans know that there is a terrible problem in America with high school sports-related violence, especially in football. Who hasn't seen a fight break out between their team and another team following a close football game, or even basketball game (in hockey the fights are the games). Murders occur almost yearly between teams in impoverished areas that lead to stabbings, hospitalization and even death. So, my question is ... Did the FIU football team have anything to do with this? Plain and simple, you would have to be stupid to not see a possible correlation. Regardless of football, Law and Order leads us to ask, was there anybody who might've wanted you dead? Have you made any enemies lately? We heard all this shit about how FIU and Miami are 9 miles apart, the players knew each other from high school, a lot of the FIU players were Miami rejects. The fight itself seemed to have context to the violence. So why not take it a step further? Because this happens all the time in high school sports, and the maturity of college football players in Florida is, I wager, lower than that of the average ten year old, why is this not being discussed? Everyone on ESPN is trying to distance this tragedy from the Miami football team because they feel it trivializes the loss. But I have a feeling that this could come back to the brawl. It makes too much sense.
