    obviously i dont know sh*t from shinola beyond what ive read on this...
    but id be willing to wager that somebody 'felt disrespected'...

    Seems to me that far too many events escalate from somebody feeling disrespected and having to 'defend their manhood'...

    So stupid... be the b**** - walk away, apologize, whatever...

    defending your 'manhood' to some rando is just a waste...

    risk vs reward... investment vs return...

    ego is probably the worst trait of our gender...

    imo...

    Once we get Cade all these malcontents got to go. I knew KPJ was going to be trouble when he consults with Harden.

    With a name like The Booby Trap, they should have known better.

    I agree with your post, however, I will say that I’ve obviously matured as I’ve gotten older and I haven’t always understood the concept of “Live to fight another day”.

    When you’re young, athletic and are used to having it your way, it’s easy to get into childish behavior! Lack of self control (especially in fighting) is more prevalent the younger that you are....unless you have small cajones, but I digress.

    Entirely possible. But it still sounds like he was beat up 3 v 1 and they used weapons. Those are dangerous people. Anyone who fights with broken bottles needs to be taken off the street. I think I've shared this before on here, but I saw a guy in high school get sucker punched, hit his head on the curb and immediately go into seizures. Dirty fighting boils my nerves.

    Not surprised, snitching seems to be the worst thing you can do for some people. Weird moral codes, but I can understand

    EVERYBODY IS MISSING THE MAIN POINT......THEY WERE OUT AT 6:30 IN THE MORNING!

    This is why they are losing, there is no leadership on this team. I DO NOT want a team full of rookies, 1st and 2nd yr players. There is a reason why the same teams dwell in the seller. Every year, they pick at the top of the lottery, yr after yr and never get any further.

    Stone needs to pick one or two players and trade the others picks for veterans or future picks

    At least 5 people involved in a brutal assault, and no one is talking...wants to talk. That's a coverup.

    We need more than one or 2 young players. We just need a couple good vets that will lead AND be a good example

    Pretty easy to stereotype based on coming out of a club at 6am.

    John Lucas is hired specifically to prevent this.

    I was talking to some parents and we all agreed that old parents have the worst kids cause they can't keep up with them or control them

    John Lucas was hired for player development. Everyone must have missed the part where an all day babysitter was part of his job description. Nonsense

    Except that it generally exacerbates any problem. Criminals get bolder and more people get victimized.

    Talent wise, yes they are! But this is about leadership.

    Correct! I'm counting Wood, KPJ, KMJ, Tate and AB among our young players. Two more is all we need. We need veterans to lead them
