Violence in sports.....
http://espn.go.com/nba/columns/smith_sam/1501298.html
What do you guys think? Mixed emotions on my part. I love to see the emotion on the court, it's like a drama unfolding at times, but have these guys gone too far? It's very true that we all face some very stressful times in our jobs, and like stated, we can't really take it out on anyone (unless you have a dog, or girlfriend at home evil: ). Is this violence that we see escalating in our sports world a small representation of what we are starting to see in our society? |
No, the type of people that play sports are not the typical members of society.

eek: |
Most of them are pretty dumb, i.e. Keyshawn Johnson, Dennis Rodman, Allen Iverson... You get the idea.
|
add Terrel Owens to the dumb list
|
Last time I checked Jerry Sloan wasn't really considered a thug.
Perhaps the decline is the result of the ever-growing salaries these guys have. When you are worth 35 million bucks or more, what fears of reprisal do you really have? |
Jerry Sloan has always been like that. He gets thrown out of games all the time.
|
NBA i believe has the greatest increase in salaries over the past few years, NFL has the least
|
I would guess MLB has the largest increase. It don't have no salary cap like the NFL and NBA.
|
they have increased egos, and being paid so much to play a sport is the major reason why college football is #1
|
Amen to that bro.
|
The best CFL players only get about 100k a year canadian, im glad about that too.
|
the only people who can play basketball is from the projects. Its not that they're thugs, thats just how they grew up/were raised. and they have more money than they have ever imaged and dont know what to do with it,
|
Most are just lousy pricks who complian about little things, and their money. I hate famous people.
"Where is my ice?" And crap like that. They are just too lazy to do anything themselves. Ungrateful bastards. |
If you want good violence WATCH HOCKEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mb GO WINGS!!!!!!! |
Basketball? Thats a pussy sport. Those spooks shouldn't be allowed to bitch slap each other....it's not part of the game.
Same with football...fighting is not part of the game. Fighting is a part of Hockey. They even have special guys mastering the art of punching the shit out of the other guy. They have penalties for fighting so it's part of the game. The fan base loves the fighting and everything else that goes along with it so it's accepted. ...other than Hockey and boxing, leave the fighting out of the rest. |
This is the reason I watch wrestling. Even the referee gets his ass kicked!
|
It's fake. I used to watch it then it got really boring.
|
hmm, saying to watch hockey...and then prasing the WINGS
the WINGS are the problem with hockey, hell if they PAYED less money to their players then NO player will be making alot the payrolls should be 50 mil or under. |

payroll smayroll, look at what the carolina hurricanes did last year. who do they have on thier payroll? rod brind'amour, arturs irbe, and i cant really think of anyone else off hand and yet they made to the stanley cup finals last year. albeit they used that boring center trap defense similiar to the left wing lock. im from michigan so i dont have to say what team i like.
|
it hard not to HAVE to like the Wings, when you have complete shit like the Pistons, Tigers and Lions
Also that Blue shit with Wolverines they sux. |
