It'll also be pretty sad if Deng is the only guy they can grab in free agency....

Oh, I'm not talking about what would actually happen, I'm just pointing out that commentators would likely call for jail time or some other major punishment because it's a Teabagger , but when it's someone whose political views they agree with, it's a free speech issue.

i think if some Tea Party member did something like that to Mathew Shepard's grave or something like that, everyone here would be fine with putting him in jail for 2 years. Also, they aren't "little girls", it's actually disrespectful to call them such as they're all adults who are perfectly capable of making…

What do you have against actually trying this case in court?

Perhaps if you remove your head out of your ass your "vantage" will let you understand the simple fact that being a great athlete =/= being smart. Maybe the extended rehab was good, but the way he handled it was unquestionable dumb, from the #thereturn marketing campaign, the constant refusal to clarify whether he…

Maybe you just don't follow the Bulls as much, but it's clear to most Bulls fans that Reggie Rose (his older brother) is the one calling the shots, including Derrick's "extended" rehab and his public complaining about the Bulls' lack of trade movement.

oh i get it, it's 'cause he has long hair!

That's more down to Reggie Rose being smart than Derrick

the fact that he had to cheat on his SATs? Rose is a nice guy, unlike Kobe, but he's definitely not as intelligent.

not at all....the guy's just not very bright. loves the game though

The concussion settlement was big news this year, you shouldn't be surprised that football-related deaths from the pro to the high school level are considered newsworthy, because they are relevant to the ongoing discourse about safety and injuries in football.
