I guess the TWO double negatives cancel out and this statement (although poorly worded) can make sense.
I don't feel bad for Barnes in this particular situation but I agree that it's ridiculous what some dumb crazy fans say. From calling Howard a p***y, to calling Marcus Smart the n word, those types of slurs happen all the time every game. Some of those fans need to be held accountable for their actions, but it's hard to do.
No it doesn't. Go call a wealthy business man you don't know a p***y or a n word and see what happens. It's a sports thing, and celebrity thing.
I remember Casey Jacobsen! He was a prototypical 3 & D guy... with no D. I used to pick him up on Live (or was it 2K?) when he was a rookie because he had decent potential in that game.
^ What this guy says. Also, I've lost SO MANY CLOSE PEEPS to Cancer. I never use it to sound like I'm better than anyone because of that.
I didn't mean just wealthy people, I meant being paid millions to play pro sports, these things come with the territory...I guess we're on the same page then :grin:
Very few of those fans would say anything to a player or to his mom. They just like to talk mess without accountability via the anonymity of the internet.
Lol he didnt mean it. Still talking trash. I hope he gets finesd but know he wont. He has a history, why would anyone take his side...
Id rather see Harden embarrass him on the court with a nasty crossover and step back 3 or a dunk that goes down his throat.
