Translation: There is SOOOOOO MUCH more here that happened worth of coverage in the gaming media then one man getting arrested for something that happened outside of the event.

No, you don't cover fighting games on any consistent basis. There have been many majors that happened recently and nary a peep from Kotaku.

Mentioning the terms "E-sports" and "MLG" shows an unfamiliarity with the subject matter. Fighting games and gamers, while they may fall under E-sports in the literal sense, are…

Haha yeah, you can see the caged ring at the beginning and end (where Ross tears a section of it off) of the video I linked above.

I don't know - there seems to be a pretty large gap between domestic abuse and "I lost my shit when I caught my girlfriend cheating on me". Not saying anyone was right or wrong here, or that anyone had anything coming - just you find yourself in a situation like that your reaction is going to be pretty emotional.

Everyone here is making such good points. I seriously think this is the straw to break my back with this website. I come here literally every single day and I have tried SO very hard to get over the trash on here. However, there is far to much of it for me.

Well it's probably not as interesting to neutrals or lacking context to those who aren't concerned with fighting games and the community, but there were plenty of highlights from CEO 2013 in itself.

Thank you! It pisses me off that whenever something negative happens in the FGC it almost immediately gets reported. I mean the "Call Kotaku" meme is a thing in the community for a reason.

Because Kotaku is only an Esports website when there is a scandal that is going to get them lots of hits.

Good point. I hadn't thought of it like that, just thinking of why it was newsworthy. Maybe the writer could tell us what their intention behind putting this story up was? What do you want they want us to take away from it?

How is it relevant that he was a gamer? What does this news have to do on Kotaku?

I guess she probably isn't interested in Magic Johnson.

Disagree. It wasn't your stereotypical bombastic fanboy response but the long pause before the response and clear disappointment about KG and Pierce not ending their careers with the team seemed genuine.

I had a totally different reaction to this. I believe his initial reaction to be genuine and emotional (how about that long pause before his response?), not "a standard pundit's take". He certainly didn't back down from Doc calling him an idiot either. He sounded like a pissed off fan.

Not gonna lie - and I can't believe I'm saying this, but - he's been outstanding tonight. And I loved that he didn't back down in the face of Doc Rivers pulling a typical "he doesn't know the truth, blah, blah, blah." Meanwhile, the rest of the ESPN guys, predictably, sit in silence, not wanting to offend a…

Quite honestly Simmons can't win with you guys. Can you pick ONE narrative and stick with it? You're all over the place ... you're like Rufus (RIP)

Imagine how great he dunks when he turns into a wolf...

I don't get why you would get high before murdering someone. I'm a highly functioning stoner who will do a lot while high. But if I was going to off my friend, I would certainly smoke the blunts later. When I was trying to quiet my beating, guilty heart. No wonder he left a shell casing in the rent a car.

"Prosecutors also have surveillance footage from the gas station showing Hernandez and an unidentified associate re-enacting scenes from 'Weekend at Bernie's II' with Lloyd's body."

His one phone call went to Tim Tebow.
