For a best case scenario, let’s hope it goes like this: Jim Tartt, University of Florida lineman, is cruising along the internet, and some of his friends are part of a Facebook group, and he just clicks “Accept Invite” without thinking and moves on to class or practice. For a worst case scenario, you just assume that Tartt really belongs to a Facebook group called “Africa Gives Nothing To The World But AIDS.”↵
UF’s Tartt Is Unaware of Africa’s Many Exports
↵↵Tartt is unaware of Africa’s oil, natural gas, and mineral resources exported around the world, but being an anthropology major -- wait, wait. An anthropology major joined a group called “Africa Gives Nothing To the World But AIDS?” Jim, do you know how many white guys in dai-shikis are going to be mad at you in the halls of the Anth department? Good luck getting a fair shake on your finals. The only export you may have to offer is academic ineligibility when your final paper “AIDS: Africa has a Lot of It” gets a flaming ‘F’ from your profs.↵
↵↵P.S. Facebook is public, student-athletes of the world. It’s open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Dumb on the internet for a moment is dumb forever.↵
