Nitt Picks Can't Keep It In His Pants

In the words of Vince Lombardi, "What the hell is going on out there?" Apparently spring is in the air and college athletes are feeling a little frisky. And Penn State point guard Stanley Pringle knows how to charm the ladies.

Penn State Police confirmed yesterday that they have filed charges against Nittany Lions basketball player Stanley Pringle in an incident involving public masturbation that occurred last Thursday in Pattee Library.

Police said Pringle, the team's point guard, sat behind the victim in the stacks section of the library, attempted to start a conversation with the woman and began masturbating. Police have filed charges of public lewdness and disorderly conduct against him in connection to the incident, but Centre County District Judge Jonathan Grine, who is out of the office, was unable to sign the criminal complaint as of 2 p.m. today. Without the signed complaint, Pringle cannot be formally arrested.

Program insiders are saying hold off on judgment in this until all the facts come out. And it looks like the athletic department is backing him up.

Sports Information Director Brian Siegrist confirmed that charges were filed against Pringle yesterday, but denied Pringle's involvement in the masturbation incident. Siegrist said Pringle's status with the basketball team remains unchanged.

So BSD is not calling for his removal from the team...yet. But this is damn funny unless your name is synonymous with a popular snack food.

On second thought, you can have him

You know, as I was looking at the depth chart at safety the other day I was really wishing Spencer Ridenhour had decided to stick around rather than transfer to the University of Massachusetts. Yeah, now, well, not so much.

A University of Massachusetts football player is now facing charges of open and gross lewdness following an incident reported near Smith College last Tuesday.

Northampton police arrested Belchertown resident and UMass junior sociology major Spencer Sinclair Ridenhour, 22, after a female jogger reported seeing a man staring at her and masturbating from a parked car on Elm Street.

According to police, the woman claimed she approached the man because she thought he needed assistance, and that he exposed himself before driving away.

Ridenhour, of White Plains, NY, is also facing charges stemming from another incident earlier the same day. In the first, a Smith student reported being assaulted by an unidentified male who allegedly grabbed her buttocks in the quadrangle off of Paradise Street, according to the Smith College Public Safety Department. This was reported last Tuesday at roughly 8:30 p.m., about 30 minutes before the Elm Street incident.

UMass police apprehended Ridenhour Thursday afternoon following information given in a report from another young woman who claimed she saw a male driver masturbate while driving by her at a PVTA bus stop on Orchard Hill Drive.

"She got a very good description of him, and the model and make of the car," UMass Deputy Police Chief Patrick Archbald told the Daily Hampshire Gazette. "He was masturbating while driving. I imagine he was driving very slowly."

Holy cripes. Even if I'm stranded in the middle of the desert with no food or water and I have to get to civilization quickly in order to save the free world, I am absolutely not getting in Spencer Ridenhour's car. But in the off chance you find yourself bumming a ride off of him I suggest you not open the glove box. Those tissues are probably already used.

I guess you just can't keep Pringle off the hardwood.

I can see it now - JoePa and the boys will be cleaning the library this season.

Ridenhour........
anyone dumb enough to think girls at Smith care at all about a Penis is too stupid to play for PSU :)

How could somebody tell he was diddlin' himself as he drove by slowly ?  Must have some unit on him.

The Pringle think might be funny, but it isn't something that will look any good at all when it hits the crawler on ESPN for the entire country so see.

To bad Ridenhour doesn't play for a school that actually gets on ESPN.......the Gameday signs could have been classic.

Keep your pringles in their container.

Are Stanley and Spencer reading the same books?
What are the odds that 2 Penn State affiliated athletes would get tagged for the same offense within a 48 hour period?

Do they both belong to Lions Paw? Parmi Nude? Pipe Slamma Now? Athletes in Action?

Okay, I've got it all out of my system. Go about your business.

HA! I said Business!

Too much fun

Imagine trying to make this call as an announcer:  "Pringle gets called for the reach around foul..."

ha ha
He's never been the same since my friend dumped him. But then, he was a cheating jerk then. I guess now he's a perverted jerk.

Which One?
To which PSU-affiliated masturbatory athlete are you referring?  Can't believe this is a legitimate question.

by jtothep on Apr 3, 2008 2:37 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I'm
referring to Ridenhour.

ziiing
Pringle can't beat his man off the dribble, but he can beat off his man for a dribble

its actually a new hand-eye coordination technique Coach D has been preaching to the boys.

it just goes to show, you dont win games, you dont get laid

when they told him to 'search the stacks' he thought they meant "jerk your sack'

thank you, you've been great... ill be here all week

For the glory

situation
"Ridenhour": Hey Charlie can I borrow your car

"Charlie" : it's not a car, it's a truck man and
            I'm not sure

"Ridenhour": Come on man I need it to go to the
            quad

"Charlie": well alright man, but I have to warn
           you it's a standard

"Ridenhour": Don't worry man I know how to drive
             Stick

baa dump bump tisss   hahahahaha  

sorry but I had that in my head the whole afternoon hahahahaha

Did ya hear
Pringle was actually recruited to PSU to play on the golf team....they said he really knew how to stroke a ball

The horror
I don't think I will be making any trips back to PSU for football this fall, first the chicken cosmo is discontinued and now I'm not allowed to wax my dolphin in the periodicals.  What's next, no dry humping the person standing in front of you at the game, no sniffing the lion statues butt, or even no slapping the salami at the new creamery.

by PSU86 on Apr 2, 2008 7:34 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Thank God
The chicken cosmo and the stanley incident are two separate stories. Would give new meaning to ordering with a side of pringles.  And, please god, hold the mayonnaise.

PRINGLE SHOOTS!

by Lion Alum on Apr 2, 2008 8:48 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

i looked it up, and Pringle's major is Art History,he says he aspires to be a curator, he was simply getting practice in statue waxing.

alibis
If he were a sports major he could have been looking for a book on the yankees, if he were a biology major perhaps he has an interest in one eyed snakes, and if he were forestry he could have claimed to just be studying hard wood.

you're all missing the best part
"According to police, the woman claimed she approached the man because she thought he needed assistance"

Spencer needed a hand...

by gbd106 on Apr 3, 2008 9:35 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

That IS Rich
At what point did she decide he did not 'need assistance?' Was he demonstrating sufficient proficiency?

by jtothep on Apr 3, 2008 2:42 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Pringle
Prefers to keep it outside; who needs to drive to the hole, anyway?
