There’s no evidence he did any of the stiff the CEO’s did but in typical Phil he was a dick about it. He said that only a few of Singers clients did that illegal thing and besides colleges are falling all over themselves for HIS kids because they are just better than everyone else.

He wasn't on the list that was floating around, so I think I'll withhold judgment on Mickelson until more information becomes available.

He wasn't called as a witness. Said if called by either side he'd take the fifth.

My point is, he seems to work with criminals.

My oldest was excepted at Brown but opted for another school. She did with her hard work and well rounded background.

He continues to associate with shady characters to get what he wants.
Sound like someone else we know?
