Tenn. Lawmaker Apologizes for Trying to Pull Down Pants of High School Basketball Ref: 'I Was Bad Wrong'

A Tennessee lawmaker apologized for losing his temper during a high school boys' basketball game on Tuesday and trying to yank down the pants of a referee.

"I acted the fool tonight," Republican state Rep. Jeremy Faison said in a statement Tuesday. "I'm hoping to be able to make it right."

Faison, 45, was courtside in the Providence Academy gym in Johnson City during a game against Lakeway Christian Academy of White Pine when players scrambled to grab a loose ball at the end of the third quarter.

A referee called technical fouls for unsportsmanlike conduct against players from both teams, which prompted Faison to take the court.

3. I saw on one link where he said ...

"You can't kick ME off the floor" ...
as in "Don't you know who I am?"

4. I hope the school bans him from attending any games again

It would be best for his children, I think, to not have such an embarrassment to be present.

5. Did he go to high school? "I was bad wrong?"

I bet you can have a beer with him though. Seems to be the benchmark to get elected these days.

6. Sounds like some predator shit

Lock him up. An apology is not good enough.

7. Bwhaha, must of tired from hollering at the guy in the stripe shirt to get in the game.
