The NCAA said Vernon must sit six games and repay more than $1,200 because as a recruit he accepted things such as access to Shapiro’s suite at a Miami home game, drinks and cover charges at two different nightclubs. Shapiro, who told Yahoo Sports for a story published Aug. 16 that he provided benefits to 72 Miami players and recruits over an eight-year span, has even said that he made a $1,000 donation to Vernon’s high school booster club.
Armstrong must repay $788, the believed worth of his extra benefits, while Dye will pay back $738.
“The student-athletes involved have acknowledged receiving improper benefits and will now be responsible for restitution,” Eichorst said.
Forston, the NCAA said, received more than $400 in things such as “athletic equipment, meals, nightclub cover charges and entertainment at a gentleman’s club.” Spence received about $275 in benefits, Ojomo $240, Benjamin more than $150 and Harris more than $140.

LAS VEGAS (AP) – A former bodyguard for NFL football player Adam “Pacman” Jones has been sentenced to a year of probation, community service and anger management counseling for his role in a Las Vegas strip club fracas and shooting that left three people wounded in February 2007.
Robert “Big Rob” Reid, 31, of Compton, Calif., was sentenced Thursday by Clark County District Court Judge Douglas Herndon after pleading an equivalent of no contest in December 2007 to misdemeanor conspiracy to commit disorderly conduct, said his lawyer, Robert Langford.
“It closes the case for Mr. Reid,” Langford said Tuesday. He said Reid still works as a bodyguard and has been involved in the filming of a reality TV show featuring strippers touring on a bus.

Steve McNair, his mentor, is dead.
Mack Brown, his father figure, is fading, as fathers do.
Vince Young is out of Nashville. He is in Philadelphia now.
Finally, it seems, he is ready to grow up.
Young spent the last five seasons in Tennessee eroding the profile he created as a national champion at Texas. There were Internet pictures of him half-naked swilling liquor; there was a fight in a strip club; there was petulance and insubordination.
It created a 28-year-old as toxic as he is talented. He hopes to be the Eagles’ next Superfund project.
“That’s one of the reasons I came here. To change the perspective everybody has on me. It’s always good to clear things up,” Young said this weekend, after his fifth full-bore practice as the Eagles’ latest marquee backup. “A lot of people across the world, a lot of teams, don’t understand me. They go off what they hear.”

Men are my weakness! Dolly Parton is rumoured to have had countless lovers in her 45-year marriage, but she says no one compares to her husband
Last updated at 10:43 PM on 12th August 2011
You have to be a very early riser to catch Dolly Parton out. It’s 7am at her office in Nashville, Tennessee, a ten-mile drive from her 23-room home on the city’s outskirts, and she’s already been up five hours, finalising arrangements for this month’s UK tour.
The ‘wee-hour wisdom’, as she calls it, is a ritual she’s stuck to throughout her 50-year career; making the most of the dawning day to take care of business, write songs and groom herself.
Today she’s wearing a black fringed skirt over black shorts, five-inch stripper heels and a multi-coloured fitted jacket around her weeny waist and those historic breasts. It’s a look that Dolly herself, now 65, admits is trashy.

Bob Boykin: That’s how it all started.
Rick: At a very young age, you moved into this world of session guitarists. How do you broaden and deepen your musical background to work in that kind of world? It really must demand not only a strong command of your guitar, but the talent to play a lot of different styles.
Bob Boykin: Well, that comes from playing in bands early on, before I got into the studios. I was already playing in clubs by the time I was 15 years old and had my first road gig when I was 16. I was playing in a rock band called Sweet William down on River Street in Savannah at this stripper club called Some Place Else. I wasn’t even old enough to be in there.

DUAN!
Dry-Hump On, Good Mötley Crüe-Lovin’ People Of Nashville
Jack Dickey —Tipster James sent us this photo all the way back on July 5, when Nashville was fresh from being rocked by the Crüe two days prior. And for reasons unknown, we haven’t posted it until now. For that we apologize profusely.
James writes, “This couple loves the Crüe so much they decided to give the show their own encore. This went on for the last 3 songs. Tommy Lee would have been proud. This multitasking stripper was even able to snap off a few photos of her man’s O face.”
You don’t know that she’s a stripper. Some people just find themselves overwhelmed by great music. It happens. Don’t worry.

Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. Brian Hickey will be guiding you through this heat in no time.

at the mayor. We can’t decide if that is supposed to me strippers are for Dean in the hopes that he lightens up the five-year-old law considered onerous on strip clubs in Nashville.
Let’s say it does mean that. Supporters of altering the strip club law have chattered that may be one way of reigniting economic development. Attorney and former Metro Council member Adam Dread said recently that conventions have bypassed Nashville because the strip clubs aren’t what they used to be. Of course, tourism officials are reluctant to acknowledge that. Given the slump in convention and tourism business and the need to fill a new convention center, there’s a mild argument that amending the law could help bring more convention business. Obviously, that wouldn’t be the preferred sales point but one of the more subtle ones.

In the show Price stars in, The John Denver Story, he sings those and many other songs, and talks the audience through Denver’s life. It’s not acting, exactly, but it is storytelling, and that’s what appealed to him. ”I don’t feel as if I’m trying to become John. I just do the songs as if I were singing my own.”
Price doesn’t present as a man with a big ego – he comes across as quiet and quite reflective – but he’s had his brush with stardom and perhaps such an experience leaves its scars, both good and bad.
He knew from his first gig, aged eight, that music was his calling. By 11, he was playing solo in nightclubs in Brisbane – ”I’d be in a dressing room and a stripper would walk past … I just loved it” – and at 18 he moved to Sydney. For a decade, he trod the usual route of sleeping on friends’ couches, playing in bands and struggling to make a name before finally cracking it. Big time.
