The "fan" who threw the crap at Artest is a convicted felon, Felony Assault with intent to do great bodily harm. He is also a 3 time convicted drunk driver. Hahahaha. what a victim. David Stern makes me sick with his hipocracy.

With his prior record, he could be prosecuted for sure. The DA was on the Today Show this morning, and said some of the fans might face assault and battery charges. This guy should for sure.

Yeah, considering that wasn't the fan Artest went after.

Great point. [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

You forgot that drinking is a violation of his probation. A+ job with that one to his PO. But, I'm sure it's the first time since trial he's had a drink.

they can lock them allup or let them all go. pro sports has sunk to all time lows by condoning anything for ratings or the current crop of creeps. no longer is sports about competition and gamemanship. its all just entertainment. but thats what the new breed of watching fans want, so so be it. get ready for rollerball.

Yep, Artest knew he was a convicted felon, that's why he slugged him. Oh, wait, he slugged the wrong guy. After all, he was near the convicted felon that threw the cup.

Did David Stern call the guy a victim? I recall him calling the actions "poisonous."

Boris · #7 11-23-2004, 04:27 AM

lol. calling the actions "poisonous" and docking a guy $6m are pretty far apart on the punishment spectrum.

BTW - do you still believe mental illness doesn't exist?

I remember when Spreewell tried to strangle his own coach. There was all kinds of talk about right and wrong, but there was never any doubt that if anyone's job was in trouble, it wasn't Spreewell's, it was the coaches, and that Spreewell would be on the team and it would as if nothing happened soon enough.

Once you're a rich celebrity and they need you, it's almost impossible to be punished severely for anything you do.

I'm glad these jerks who fight with fans get a real life for once by getting the boot when they deserve it very, very occasionally. Simply put, these guys are professionals getting paid millions. They should be smarter and have their bodyguards doing the beating up of people, like Prince. It's practical, and a lot cheaper than doing the punching themselves.

Should Stern have suspended the fan? Sentences him to jail time? Fined him?

Are you Ron Artest? Be honest. The two of you probally have similar IQ's.
