Precisely the above post. However, I do see that some pro athletes can be looked at as role models, I don't think NBA, or maybe even most MLB players, can be. I'd look more at NFL qbs and some NHL players first.
Like I said, the NBA has been out to discard Artest for years. If the NBA gets sued, it is almost guaranteed that Artest will sue someones ass too. If the fan that threw the cup is going to sue him for whatever, he might want to think twice, because I'm sure Artest would have a much stronger legal team and he wasn't the instigator in all this.
David Stern, he's a piece of garbage. Instead of trying to find some help for Artest, he's gone. Why? Stern, do you give 2 shits about the players that bring the fans to the arena and keep your job? Interesting because the labour deal is coming up soon, and we may have another NHL on our hands.
There will be no hockey this year, by the way. Not sure how they are going to draft but it will be disputed. For those of you unaware, there is a new Lebron James of hockey, Sidney Crosby, and where he goes could also end up in lawsuits due to uncertainty how the draft will be run. Sorry for getting a little off-topic.
