    Vernon dispirited six million New York Knicks fans but that's about it, I really don't think its an apt comparison.

    Hey Nancy Gracalu,
    Vernon just violated parole for smoking some weed and not being able to pay some child support cause he's not making any NBA money.
    Big Deal!

    I like how you added that not making "NBA money" in there. He can get a job and work like the rest of us do.

    There are plenty of parents paying child support & not making "NBA money" does that mean they should stop paying?

    I sure hope not...

    it's a losing battle...Maxwell could beat his wife and molest his own kid and tinman would still defend him just b/c he was part of the Rockets championship team.

    you know Puff Daddy is paying $20,000K a month in child support.
    That must be for his kid's DOLCE AND GABBANA DIAPERS.

    if Diddy's record company goes belly up, he couldn't afford that (factor in he spends tons of his money too like Patrick Ewing said)

    Thats when he gets a lawyer goes to a judge and shows him/her his finances. Im sure the the $20,000 he is paying now will come down a LARGE amount.

    What else you got for me tinman?

    what do you want? a hug? a cookie? I can give you that.

    but a ROCKETS CHAMPIONSHIP and CLUTCH SHOOTING, you'd have to ask VERNON MAXWELL.

    I'm LOL'ing, but shaking my head in shame. What Vick has allegedly been involved in is absolutely disgusting and doesn't truly compare to some of Maxwell's crimes, but come on man, take care of your kids for crying out loud. That just smacks of selfishness and immaturity. Deadbeat dads make me sick.

    I knew that time I had lunch at Yao's that MadMax was a shady character. I could just see it in his eyes. He always puts up this act of being mister open minded good hearted Christian but he's really shifty and something like this was bound to happen.

    Adios MadMax and may we never see your moniker again on the D & D and Stros forum...

    We are talking about MadMax the poster right?

    ;) ;)

    hahahaha! Yeah that MadMax (the poster, not the guy who turned ChokeCity to ClutchCity). They should throw him in the slammer cause he likes baseball more than basketball!

    A CRIME!!

    Yup.

    The support obligation remains around the same cuz in the court's mind it keeps fathers from intentionally & "fraudulently" crapping on their jobs and careers to present the image that they're not making any money, working it to get the child support amount lowered...Basically when you lose your job or get fired, the courts sometimes just respond with what amounts to "Well, find another one then"

    Vernon probably saw how they got him by the balls and just said you know what hell with all that, jail or whatever they got for me. aint gonna come out a winner anyways so i'ma drank and smoke it up a lil, play some pool, enjoy life how i can.

    I agree.

    Morally, not taking care of your kids is more disgusting then killing dogs.
