I'm usually not one to pile onto mainstream news and to bury players of being humans. But this is just plain dumb, fellas.
According to reports, Jayhawks alums and fellow rookies Darrell Arthur and Mario Chalmers got busted at the NBA rookie transition program earlier today and were subsequently tossed. The two might face more disciplinary action from the League, but the embarrassment and ridicule likely to come should be punishment enough.
A good rule of thumb for a program about understanding reputation management, mitigating risk and being an ambassador for the League is not doing anything illegal on the first day of class.
Whether we agree or not, pot would still be on that not-quite-legal list. Apparently, this is like grade school sleepaway camp where no ladies are allowed in the cabins either. That would be 0-for-2 for the former NCAA Champions, as Chalmers and Arthur decided to spark a few and invite over some local ladies. Not the way you want to kick off your NBA careers, gentlemen.
Complete aside...where did they find the girls? Really, I'm quite curious. You're in the middle of Rye Brook, NY. I grew up in Westchester County. I know where this place is. Did they smuggle the ladies in their suitcases? Did they pick them up last night at one of the rocking clubs in the area? These are things I think about...
