Magic cut Adreian Payne to avoid sexual-assault scandal at Michigan St., USA Gymnastics

Even the Orlando Magic and their G-League team have been sucked in by the massive tentacles of the most heinous sports scandal in the history of our country.

This in itself should show you how despicable, detestable and disgustingly derelict in their duties the leaders at Michigan State have been in investigating sexual assaults among not only demented team doctor Larry Nassar but also their own football and basketball players.

In the wake of an ESPN.com report that Michigan State mishandled a rape case in 2010 against Adreian Payne and fellow former Spartans player Keith Appling, the Magic waived Payne from the G-League team in Lakeland on Saturday without any further comment.
