BF_in_Indiana Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 A shame how? It's a shame that a guy gets picked up for being a criminal, yet people want to fry Ron Artest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 http://www.news-record.com/news/now/nflarrest112204.htm A shame. 129165[/snapback] What a shock. In related news, he's been signed by the Dolphins for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gross Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Didn't he get dumped for the team after some problems with violations of the "substance abuse policy?" You're right Mark, a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Robertson is currently being held in the Danville city jail under $500,000 bond.Wow, half-a-million...Tyrone finally made the big-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 What a shock. In related news, he's been signed by the Dolphins for next season. 129171[/snapback] Think he can play basketball? Maybe he can fill in for Artest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckincincy Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Those pesky personal choices. No doubt, he was "just about to turn his life around"...I hear that ALL the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame that a guy gets picked up for being a criminal, yet people want to fry Ron Artest. 129170[/snapback] But his Rap CD will go Platinum ! Why do you care about a POS who wanted to take most of the year off to rest ? He doesn't care about the Indiana Pacer fans . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't care about the Indiana Pacer fans . 129196[/snapback] My opinion on the matter would be the same if I was a fan of any other team then Indiana. I'm not the biggest fan of some of the stuff he does at times, but I don't think he was out of line this time. It's hardly a shame that Tyrone Roberston got busted for selling drugs though, he knows the law and will serve time in jail because of it now.

Beerball Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I ask again. How is this a shame? He's getting what he deserves. 129181[/snapback] Some people think it is a shame whenever another human being does something stupid/illegal and flushes their life down the BF.

Ron Artest will have to for his, and so will Tyrone Robertson. I don't classify it as a shame though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always is... Or, maybe to put it in BF terms, it's a shame that he was allowed to waste a roster spot over someone else when it was clear he was a druggie from the very start....

duey Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 A shame how? It's a shame that a guy gets picked up for being a criminal, yet people want to fry Ron Artest. 129170[/snapback] Aw dude...let it alone. Artest is a POS who got what he deserved. In fact, he's lucky no one in the crowd did anything worse to him (it was Detroit we're talking about). And to make matters worse...how many of the people he pushed, punched and ran over will be filing suit against him? Hmmm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasoninMT Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 A shame? Yeah, he ought to be ashamed of himself... Officers came on an Domestic charge, found an woman who claimed assault, Drugs, Cash, and a Gun? That's not just bad.... That's horrible... Sure, innocent until proven guilty and all... but if it's true.... what a waste of humanity. He may not have had all the talent in the world, but he was endowed with gifts and he made wrong choices. And I'm not saying this as an attack on Mark, because I don't think he's getting a fair shake in the thread... It is a shame. I don't think he meant it as a defense of TR...

GG Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I ask again. How is this a shame? He's getting what he deserves. 129181[/snapback] The difference is that Tyrone had a chance and totally blew it, while rapipng Ron has not totally blown his chance yet. I imagine in 5 years, if Artest is out of the league and is busted in a decrepid VA motel on coke charges, many will say, "What a shame." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like A Mofo Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I ask again. How is this a shame? He's getting what he deserves. 129181[/snapback] and so is Artest. Even if he was a Knick, Id feel the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
