i mean really

Quote :

"September 15, 2004 MVP clobbering Rick Rickert a second round draft pick of the Minnesota Timberwolves was apparently outplaying the team's mighty league MVP in a pickup game. The rookie's glory didn't last however, because Kevin Garnett unexpectedly landed a fist to the new guy's grill. Rick needed stitches to close a cut on his chin and had a chipped tooth. Nothing to joke about. The rookie was trying to make the Minnesota squad and was without a single doubt firing on all cylinders. Garnett on the other hand really doesn't have a strong motivation at this point in the season. But he surely wasnt happy to play the turnstile that served as the gateway to the NBA. Now the queston is did the Timberwolves organization do anything about KG? I mean you can't get slugged by an 8 figure corporate giant for nothing can you. If yeah, it's worth considering that in the real world it's called assault. In all honesty it was a sucker punch from an individual who was thought to have more class. If you notice well, you won't see mention or detail of the incident on most major NBA media sites. Kevin is the golden child that get the good side of the media. Pehaps also it's because of Rick Rickert's lack of reputation that this incident has such a low profile. Basically Minnesota (and the NBA) can do without Rick so no big talk here. Indeed, such a cruel cruel world. "

yeah, I wish they would go ahead and ban the daire. It's not like the account is being used by the girl who created it.

doesnt say anything about rick rickert

i mean for all we know, they guy could have been a cocky douche, and thats why he got slammed inthe face

6/22/2008 10:42:06 AM

yeah maybe he elbowed KG in the face
anyways its still unprecedented that 3 of the major sports would have championship contenders in the same year, and 2 wins

its about as crazy as florida winning football and basketball in the same year

im suprised they dont make a bigger deal out of it

^^^ it's not unprecedented at all. In 1969-70 the Knicks, Mets and Jets all won their respective Championships...

yeah, it's definitely not unprecedented

here's a list of similar triumphs.

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=caple/080618&sportCat=nba

it's a good list of similar achievements by other cities. you just have to ignore ESPN's attempt to subjectively classify every fucking thing into some bullshit list. kind of like they do with everything else
