I had to laugh, and said this is why we shouldn't idolize sports figures.....

Some folks think every movie is a documentary. :-)

This guy is gonna get some crap the next time he walks into the locker room.

Barney Rubble was a great actor.

Buddy Hield is a good guy. Teammates love him.

“I watched ‘Gladiator’ and I thought Maximus was a real warrior,”

Good grief......he related to Hank Johnson perhaps?

This is a great example of a lot of athletes playing sports in college is ALL they do there.

He was probably disappointed that Wakanda wasn’t real either............

[PGR88]

In the words of the “me too” movement -”but he could have been real!”

Or actors. There are people who think John Wayne was a great American because of the movies he was in.

He was looking for the giant scoreboard like they have in most NBA arenas,

“Where da scobode? Where da popcone vendors?”

[HartleyMBaldwin]

My guess is that Hield was making a joke, and a lot of people fell for it.

His IQ equals how many points he last scored.

How embarrassing.

Joaquin Phoenix did a great acting job portraying Commodus as a villain. To put the historical Commodus in context, some of his predecessors, like Tiberius and Caligula, created whole new levels of perversion, homicide and excess.

Laugh maybe but it does point out the role and effect of story telling.

We all know why we can’t have atomic energy, name the movie.

Revisted the Colosseum last May. Did the “underground” tour. Worth the extra.

[ridesthemiles]

SOOOOO-——DID HE EVER WATCH ‘STAR WARS”???

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

” I watched ‘Gladiator’ and I thought Maximus was a real warrior,”

Now mess up his mind by having him watch THE FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE (1964). Some of the same characters.

"I was a little disappointed when I went to the Colosseum because I watched ‘Gladiator’ and I thought Maximus was a real warrior," he explained on the ESPN broadcast. "So, I’m going into the Colosseum screaming, ‘Maximus!’ My tour guide said he’s not real."

He's off to visit Wakanda next.
