I gave up watching these hyperpituitary psychopathic overpaid "Gangsta" jungle-mentality freeks years ago.
Born and reared in Detroit, but I've been a Packers fan from waaaaaay back when Guy Lombardo was the coach.
PACKERS RULE!!!!!!!!!!

As a native Hoosier and life long Pacer fan, I was pleased to see it when it happened--I thought since the Pacers traded Dale and Tony Davis, they had gotten a reputation of being a little "soft;" indeed, perhaps it was well deserved.
I assumed 10 game suspensions all around--boy was I shocked when Stern came back with what he did.
But in the end, I don't have a lot of problems with fighting in sports--it's a competition, and tempers run high with competitors. And I don't have a problem with fans getting taken behind the woodshed when they throw beer (or chairs) at players. I like the way baseball used to be: every once in awhile, the two teams would come running out of the dugout, and then they'd beat each other up for 10 or 15 minutes, then they'd all go back to the dugout and then it was game on. No harm, no foul.
Shoot, maybe if there were more fistfights, there wouldn't be as many shootings. I, for one, don't think this is the end of the world.
Five Indiana Pacers players and five Detroit Pistons fans are being charged in connection with one of the worst brawls in U.S. sports history, a Michigan prosecutor announced Wednesday.
All charges are for misdemeanor assault and battery, except for one count of felony assault against a fan accused of throwing a chair, Oakland County Prosecutor David Gorcyca said at an afternoon news conference.
