The Pittsburgh Riverhounds have reacted swiftly and decisively to the fact that one of their players has made the club famous for all the wrong reasons.
Romeo Parkes slammed his studs into Karl Ouimette's back on Saturday (May 7) night. By Sunday (May 8) morning, Parkes was arguably the best-known Pittsburgh Riverhound in the history of the club. But not in a good way. By Sunday afternoon, less than 24 hours after the original incident, the Riverhounds took the quickest possible route to putting the matter behind them: they announced Parkes is no longer a member of their team.
