  • What is going on in sports this summer? I'd be afraid I'd get shot if I asked an athlete for an autograph right about now.

  • I know right? It just seems to me, its the crew or posse that starts most of the trouble. That's just my opinion though.

  • Particularly sad for the Wiz. First, Blatche gets busted for trying to get a street freak, then Stevenson gets busted at for freaks arguing on the street in front of his house.

  • I could understand this if they were still called the Bullets, but the Wizards?! I'd expect some higher-level weaponry from them. Magic staffs or something.

  • I know this has been said before but YOU ARE WHO YOU ROLL WITH! He is a 26 year old man that is at a club at 2 in the morn and something bad happened. What a surprise, when are athletes going to learn to not listen to their boys and go the the club and get shot, robbed, beat down (Keith Closs), and arrested. TO WHOEVER IS READING THIS IF YOU ARE AN ATHLETE STAY AWAY FROM THE CLUBS! Or if you are going to go don't act like and arrogant ass and flash your cash so someone can figure out you are an athlete. Then they will look to pick you off cause they know they can get paid. Keep a low profile and have a good time. I know I am wasting my fingers to type this cause we will be reading another article about another athlete cause they don't use what is in between their ears. Period.
