Sports: THAT fight
Just writing in regards to that 'FIGHT' that occured in the NBA, ("http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?columnist=caple_jim&id=1927880"). What an embarrassing image adding fuel to the already tainted image the (NBA) league has, from their inability to control their players, to the committment of materialism that has the game turned into a Friday 'Fight night' show case. Who should take responsibility? EVERYONE, in this case, the problem stems from many people; Ben Wallace for overreacting, the Detroit fans for being muppets and throwing things (what scares me is, what happens if it wasn't just a bottle?) and of course, the Pacer players for going into the crowd. I've played basketball for a very long time, and there's a saying, 'what happens on the court stays on the court', and although these players were caught up in the heat of the moment, the Pacer players shouldn't just be allowed to climb into the crowd and clobber fans. That said, fans shouldnt be allowed to walk onto the floor during the melee. I think that the best alternative that could be made is to follow the cricket, make against these hooligans. Strip these people of their season passes and dont let them into the stadium. One things for sure, the NBA can't barracde the court from the crowd.. That would just make the fans feel even further from the game they love
