UNITED STATES

coFormer Republican New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie lashed out against Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell Thursday for running up the score against his favorite football team, the Dallas Cowboys, in a 47-9 blowout last Sunday.”That’s Dan Campbell. He’s got no class, never has,” Christie said Thursday on the “Mad Dog Unleashed” radio show with Chris Russo. “So, it’s fine. Look, Dan Campbell, that’s the way he is, and what goes around comes around.”The Lions got their lopsided win against the Cowboys fairly easily, dominating in all phases. Even so, Campbell turned to his play-calling bag of tricks to add some flash to the win. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe Lions ran three trick plays against the Cowboys, including a hook and lateral to offensive tackle Penei Sewell with a 37-9 lead. Campbell told players before the game he planned to “unload the clip” after losing to the Cowboys in a controversial game in the final month last season. The Cowboys beat the Lions, 20-19, in Week 17 of the 2023 season after officials made a mistake in administering a two-point conversion at the end of the game. The Lions converted the pass, but Taylor Decker was penalized for illegal touching after officials incorrectly announced Dan Skipper as the eligible receiver.SEAN PAYTON’S BRONCOS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF DEPLETED SAINTS ROSTER IN HEAD COACH’S RETURN TO NEW ORLEANSChristie suggested Campbell was taking out his frustration from that game. “I just think that it’s misdirected,” Christie said. “Dan Campbell’s angry because the referees got a call wrong in the game a year ago. Well, then you know, run that play on (NFL commissioner) Roger Goodell. The Cowboys had nothing to do with the play being called incorrectly. It wasn’t a challenge that the Cowboys made. It was the call the referees made. “The Lions got hurt by it. The Cowboys benefited by it. But now, so because of that, you want to take your, you know, your peak out over that, while you’re, you know, beating the hell out of these guys, and rub it in. I don’t think that’s what pros do, but it’s his prerogative. It’s the reputation that he’ll carry around. And, quite frankly, I think most people think that’s his rep now anyway.”The Cowboys fell to 3-3 on the season and are off to their worst start since 2020. The Lions are 4-1 and looking as good as any team in the NFC this year. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

A college admissions officer at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania accused supporters of former President Trump of tolerating “rape,” “xenophobia” and “homophobia” in a heated social media post.In screenshots obtained by Campus Reform, Gettysburg College admissions counselor Lupe Lazaro told Trump supporters, “You are no different than the piece of s— human you stand behind,” in an Instagram Stories post she shared.”Not all Trump supporters lied about and defamed legal immigrants but they all decided it wasn’t a deal breaker. Not all Trump supporters disrespect our military. But they decided that it wasn’t a deal breaker. Not all Trump supporters tried to lynch the vice president. But they decided it wasn’t a deal breaker,” read the post she shared in September, according to Campus Reform.UNIVERSITY INSTRUCTOR ON LEAVE AFTER CALLING TO LINE UP AND SHOOT MEN WHO WON’T VOTE FOR FEMALE PRESIDENTThe post also said that Trump supporters were fine with “xenophobia,” “mocking the disabled,” “felons,” “homophobia,” “rape,” “misogyny” and plotting to “overthrow democracy.”According to the college website, Lazaro graduated from Gettysburg this year with a major in psychology and minors in sociology and Spanish. Her biography appears to have been taken down from the college admissions office website.”We are aware that an employee recently reshared a post on her private account that was later made public by one of her followers,” Gettysburg College told Fox News Digital when reached for comment. “Gettysburg College does not endorse or condone the views expressed in the recent post and is deeply committed to fostering civil discourse and welcomes students from diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and ideologies from across the nation and the globe.”Lazaro did not respond to a request for comment.Earlier this month, another election-related rant put one university instructor in hot water. The University of Kansas put an instructor on leave after he was filmed in a classroom telling students that men who didn’t support female presidential candidates should be lined up and “shot.” A few days later, the college announced he was no longer employed at their institution.
