Stanley Alan Van Gundy is an American professional basketball coach, currently serving as the head coach and president of basketball operations of the National Basketball Association's Detroit Pistons.
Ah yes, Detroit.
I’d rather live on the Somme, 1916.
Maybe Stanley the idiot should try walking around the worst areas of Detroit and Chicago at 1 AM.
He would be lucky to get out of there alive.
That picture looks like it was taken 75 pounds ago....
Regarding Detroit Pistons coach Stan Van Gundys statement to the press that athletes protesting inequality are Role Models of American Patriotism, I have news for you Stan, the only reason you are making that statement is because you are a coach of a group of men who have the highest rate of thugism than any other professional sport.
Yes, that includes the despicable NFL. Rather than condemn them, you have chosen to embrace them since any criticism of their behavior would ultimately label you a racist and not worthy of coaching a predominately black basketball team in a predominately black basketball league In other words, youre just another pathetic sell out who would rather keep his job as a coach and not stir the pot amongst your players while at the same time flipping the finger to the real Americans (black and white) who not only watch your games but ultimately pay your salary.
And those same people are sick and tired of that crap and are subsequently turning the channel.
YOU and your multi-millionaire players need to keep their mouths shut and just play the game. Without basketball and its fans, who knows what life would hold for you and your players .
As a side note coach Gundy, three players from UCLA have just passed the final qualifying requirement to enter the NBA.
