An Orlando Magic fan wants Glen "Big Baby" Davis to apologize. Not for beating his team with a game-winning shot Sunday, but for running into his son afterward.
Ernest Provetti was standing courtside beside his 12-year-old son Nicholas when Davis' jumper beat the buzzer and gave the Boston Celtics a 95-94 Game 2 win at Amway Arena in Orlando. In his excitement, Davis came into contact with Nicholas as he celebrated.
Provetti wrote an e-mail to the NBA league office Monday calling Davis a "raging animal with no regard for fans' personal safety," according to the Orlando Sentinel. Apparently Glen may want to heed Provetti’s words because in a different sport “Soccer” the fans seem to police matters on their own, like this fan below did in an Iraqi Soccer Match.
A soccer fan in Iraq was given a red card in a recent game in Hilla, Iraq The Iraqi soccer fan shot dead a player of the opposing team as he tried to score an equalizing goal in the final minutes of a match, police said on Monday.
The shooting on Saturday in Hilla, 100 km (60 miles) south of Baghdad, during a match between local teams, underscored the country's propensity to lawlessness even as violence by militant groups falls to lows not seen since mid-2003.
"As soon as Haider Kadhim (the player) was alone in front of the goalkeeper and close to equalizing, a fan in the crowd fired a pistol at him," a senior police officer in Hilla, who declined to be named, told Reuters.
"We arrested this fan immediately but unfortunately the player died."
Iraqis love soccer and have often expressed hope the game would help reconcile warring ethnic groups and sects. Wow, fans of this sport seem to police the game themselves perhaps no refs needed. Well I guess those of us that hoop and holler at Football and Baseball games are in the clear. Meanwhile A 22-year-old tipsy soccer fan celebrating on a chartered bus after a match in West Bromwich, England, in January, was run over by a motorist after he fell out the back door of the bus, believing it led to the restroom. It sort of did. He should be resting for quite some time now…
Fans you can’t live with them and the sports world can’t live without them.
You know, I am myself have favorite sports teams but to go to some of the lengths some of these fans do is just…well looking for attention I guess. The dude with the problem of the NBA star running into his kid…DUDE! These NBA athletes are bigger then one can imagine I seen Michael Jordan up close at the Point of Woods one year and that dude in his prime was wall to wall thick. He only stood a few inches taller then me however he had muscles upon muscles upon muscles. As for having your kid trampled by an overzealous athlete after he won an important game…I say you had the kid to close and at 12 you need to watch out for him. Athletes can not turn on and off the adrenalin force that runs thru their veins. Judgment NBA player! On the part of the Fan shooting the Soccer Player…Dude no guns allowed at sporting events, you want to be like the American Sports fans, then don’t carry a pistol to a game period! Oh shit…I forgot most of them do! Oh well, don’t shoot the players, judgment Soccer Player hang the dirty bastard!
Lastly, drunkard soccer fan, dude…Know your limitations…and also where the true facilities are located next time…oh wait you ran out of times well damn then!
Have a Fabulisant Tuesday
