Im under the belief that in order to play in the sport one should be a gentleman rather than a knock your head in thug - who is over paid. These people are role models whether they want to be or not , kids look up to these gangsters and think this is how you should behave. Keeping them from playing basketball for a time period is very generous , considering that i feel they should be banned from the game , and take anger management classes-- maybe keeping there payschedule down to what a teacher makes in a year , say 25 to 30 thousand a year might be fairer - and let our kids know that the real heroes in life are not sports players , but their teachers, firemen , policemen ,soldiers and others who serve them out of dedication and love rather than greed and bad hehavior . If you disagree with me thats OK ,thats the American way. There is other ways to solve problems ,rather than just beating the crap out of someone !
