Big time fist throwing. Fans, players and more. Any thoughts ?
tune them out...you have better thinigs to spend your time on instead of watching these morons play a game.
And don't ever forget MISTER PISTON himself, JOE DUMARS! ... one of the finest gentlemen in any time, in any sport!
Yeah there are a lot of jealous closet racists rambling about, "thugs and rapists" and the purity of the game blah blah, they seem to have a primordial fear of any black man with a tatto and cornrolls. LOL. Then again there are plenty of FReepers who aren't bigotted in the least.
You're doing the right think by calling the bigots on it though. They get away with too much crap on here imho.
OHH ok.. jermaine Oniel was protecting artest from that short fat guy? Come on? Artest threw the first punch and Oniel came out of nowhere and sucker punched the guy in the face. These guys are animals. How did Jermaine "protect" Artest? Artest looked at the guy and threw a punch.
L.A. riots are now being held in sports arenas. "Why can't we all just get along?" It's the Jerry Springer show with play by play commentary and instant replay. Whoo hoo, the ratings are up through the roof!!!
Murders?
Dude, you're just making ish up. Jayson Williams moronic mishandling of a firearm is not a murder.
The only high profile cases besides that involving death have been football players(carruth, lewis, OJ-former player.)
What are you rambling on about bigot?
Drugs? Yeah, in teh 70s cocaine a much worse drug was in style. Now it's weed--hardly the worst drug out there. Vin Baker is an alcoholic, I suppose that's more Middle America, but it's worse than smoking weed because alcoholism is generally more destructive on your body and your life.
Jermaine O'niel - Artest- and Jackson shjould be out for the season! These players are uncontrollable-- it is only a metter of time before someone gets killed. zIf there was agun lying in the scorers tables what are the odds one of them would have picked it up. I would say 50% at least
sorry for the grammer!
These guys are animals, huh?
ANIMALS?
Come out and say it.
You're also mixing up(or not separating) the oncourt from the in-stands mayhem. O'Neal's punch was unnecessary, but those two came on the court looking to challenge Artest and got smoked. Too bad.
If I came to your job and started looking like I was about to punch you, I'm sure you'd just let me....

Your kidding right? Fans were throwing chairs for christssake. Half the people on this board with concealed carry permits might have drawn down on these so-called "fans" hurling bottles and chairs.
The Indiana roster was only 10-12 men vs about 20 thousand players and fans. I think they reasonably feared for their personal safety what with the bang up job security was doing.
actually artest threw a baby punch and fell on his a** He wasn't very impressive
there were fans of all colors throwing punches and beer(note the big heavy guy in grey shirt)the atletets are all black because thats basketball..it was not black vs white but the subculture of basketball that creates these players and fans(rapp-ghetto ) not saying this dosn't happen at other venues--football hockey but they are usually an individual or two..now then what creates the european soccer riots??punks,gangs etc
what a bunch of spoiled, useless, moronic ex- or future- cons.
You are going to draw a gun on someone who throws a diet coke and a couple peanuts at you? Ha--
As ridiculous as you may think that sounds, there have been people who have been shot for flipping someone off or road rage. It happens, so I wouldn't test anyone if I were you.
I actually think Artest acted fine until he jumped into the stands-- he was pushed by Wallace --- he did not go after him-- he controlled himself and layed on the scorers table. That was a huge Step for Artest. Even contronting the fans in the stands is acceptable after being hit in the face. But throwing punches? Come on-- then he lost all credibility when he jacked that short guy on the court-- Biggest penalty ought to go to Jackson-- he looked like a madman-- then Oniel-- and finally Artest
You are sooo right! My family (2 daughters, son-in-law, spouse and I) attended the Pistons game at Conseco about this time last year.
We endured 2 hours of the most filthy, perverted screaming from about 10 drunk Pistons fans seated right behind us. They used language I have never heard uttered outloud in public.
There were many small scuffles around the arena during the game and security handled those first. Finally, about 15 minutes from the end of the game, security came and told the screaming drunks to shut up.
Ruined the entire evening for us.
Oh, you mean with all those "student athletes"?
The hypocrisy of college sports is the root of these problems.
