Apparently, James Franco was hanging out Butler 209 last night. From some onlookers:
Football Player: “Is that James Franco over there?”
Girl: “Yeah, why?”
Football Player: “I wanna fight him!”
Careful now, Mr. Jock: young Franco has experience.

@DHI Are all smart people unathletic?
@I want proof Of the average team GPA at Columbia for various sports being higher than the 50%…I’m calling bs on that.
I think a lot of hate stems from the fact that we can remember that football player or swimmer in our lit hum or CC who was always falling asleep or said “brah” a little too often for comfort…there’s always a bad apple to spoil the bunch. I realize not all athletes are dumb, but just a few can spoil it for the rest.
@no! read the AP style manual and call me in the morning
@why do I never see him when he’s there? : (
@oh.hello.there …doesn’t Franco know there are more floors to Butler? Like where he might get some… privacy?
Boy always seems to camp out somewhere on the ground floor. Maybe he believe in the whole hiding in plain sight thing – obviously isn’t working. Shlep up to the 6th floor bud! Explore!!
Also, the average Columbian hates on athletes because they feel like athletes do not deserve their spot in this school. Which is completely unwarranted. Stop having preconceived notions about “jocks” and grow up. Not everyone can be fit into a box and labeled. I have tremendous respect for athletes – the amount of time they dedicate to their sports, while still upholding a class schedule, can be astounding. Sure, this isn’t the case with EVERY athlete, but still…
@Gah, Franco Franco doesn’t want privacy. He comes to the biggest room, sits on his laptop and doesn’t use any of the books, smirks and chats to girls.
He’s putting on a show and he knows it.
@This was a bad post
@... this post goes to show how far from new york columbia really is…
@hehehoaho LOL—if I had been there, I would’ve laughed soOoOoOooOOoooOoO hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@I think the Athletes get a lot of perks students don’t, not to mention have an easier time with girls, but are always seen as disappointments because football is equated with all athletic teams.
@what what happened to reif larsen? did I imagine that?
@the athletes are good at baseball, basketball, fencing, tennis, heavyweight rowing, women’s soccer & swimming, field hockey
@Jade You can try to beat his ass if you want; he’ll still be prettier than you thick-necked uggoes.
…
That’s right; I went there.
@EAL I would beat up James Franco.
@hadn't we established obsessing whenever james franco is in the library is only going to make him feel like he can’t go study there
@Lion Fan Good point, why is there so much hate directed at athletics?
BWOG might want to watch it, I don’t really see why this blog can justify continued attacks and demeaning remarks directed at one particular group. In fact, I think that this blog is pretty notorious for its petty and nasty remarks. What gives?
@umm Franco kinda gets his ass handed to him in that scene. He beats the guy by sneaking up behind him. I’m rooting for the football team–its about time they had a win.
@yes because the vast majority of athletes here are SO talented. especially the football players!
@Athlete haters Columbians hate athletes because they thats the one thing most of them aren’t talented at.
grow the fuck up
@more bs from bwog and co. football players don’t go to butler. why is there always hating on athletes on here?
@because they are often less qualified academically yet get perks like being able to choose classes earlier, free one-on-one tutoring and basically think they’re the hottest shit around.
@Otherwise how else would Columbia measure its greatness if not by the success of its sports teams?
@more bs while they may be less “academically qualified” coming in, the average GPA’s of most teams are at or above that of the rest of Columbia. I’d be interested to see the average GPA’s of minority groups because everyone knows that are also normally less “academically qualified” coming in.
@classes why does everyone always make a big deal about this. athletes have blocks of time where they can’t have class (due to practices) so to avoid overcrowding they are given a chance to sign up early. Thank how much athletes give up for their “perks” before you judge them.
@dude... Your two posts don’t even make sense. If you’re going to defend the intelligence of athletes, at least try to look intelligent yourself. You even misspelled the word “think.”
Seriously, if you’re an athlete and your GPA (or as you put it, “GPA’s,” because clearly one’s GPA can possess something) is higher than mine, than I need to just stop trying at life.
@well that's unkind I’m an athlete and I did very well last semester. A lot of us are academically qualified to be here and just happen to be athletic.
@Ironically I think you mean “THEN I need to just stop trying at life.”
@#22 just got pwned!
@unless it was intentional, which would be kinda funny
@sorry didn’t mean to confuse you. Let me try to dumb it down for ya:
You say: athletes are too dumb to be here. By the same logic then minorities are too dumb. Most athletes do just fine once they get here and I bet I can name a dozen athletes with better gpa’s than you and the apostrophe is correct (dot your is and cross you ts doesn’t make much sense).
@(not the original dude) I’m sorry, but the apostrophe is not correct.

@no! the above message is in re: #22
@***** *His a$$
@Well... In football player lingo fight/wrestle= f*&@. Interesting…Franco better watch is a$$, literally…
@this isn’t an archie comic. feel free to spell out your (vaguely homophobic) expletives.
