While channel surfing I caught the donnybrook as it happened. I never watch basketball but I was shocked because I expect stuff like this from hockey or baseball (bench clearing brawls) or worse yet Brit rugby and soccer matches. What is the cause for the brawl in the stands is the drunken bunch of morons watching the game and not the game itself.

5. What the hell. I'd rather have ALL pro sports banned, because |
|
the players and managers make ridiculous amounts of money for running around with a ball, whiose costs drive up tickets leaving America's favorite pastimes out of reach for millions of families.
The baseball strike of 1994 had serious effects... which lasted for about a week. :eyes:

6. The salaries I don't mind - what really gets my goat is the way |
|
that people continue to fork over far too much money to go watch the playing, all the while bitchin' about overpaid sports people and how much the tickets are. Well, assclowns, if you think it's too much - then stop paying the price of admission. Eventually, they'll get the hint.

7. Or, in the Republican sense |
|
Since violence leads to debate, should we just ban it?

11. They don't ban things that lead to violence, just things that lead to sex |
|
So if last night's event had turned into an orgy on the floor, they'd be all over it.

or a breast had been exposed, the senate would be in session RIGHT FUCKING NOW.
