Anyway, if you wanna see it, get it fast, cuz from what I heard, the NBA has been trying to contact all the television networks and trying to get them to stop playing the clips. |

Ron Artest has always had a short fuse..even at several old clubs and the Bulls, which is one of the reasons they traded him. He is a big time player, made his first appearance in the East's allstar team last season and a huge blow for the pacers chances of once again having a crack at the eastern conference title.
Jermaine O'Neal has recently earned himself a regular spot in the US team although now i think they will think twice on who they want representing them after the blow out.
The punishments may seem pretty severe but how often do u see professional athletes lay such lethal blows to spectaters?? I think this will teach them a good lesson. Just shows that the NBA wont put up with it not now, not ever.The pistons will be happy big Ben Wallace got off with 6 games..he was one of the most influential players in the pistons outfit last season which helped them earn the title of NBA Champions. |

this happened in an AFL game with a collingwood player by the name of Phil Carmen i think.. (or maybe it wasnt him) but it was definately a collingwood player, and he decked an ump and then ran and belted a fan and was baned for 13 years or something
maybe my stats are a bit :crazy: but i think theyre accurate |
