If he was in the NFL he would be suspended for 50 games right now. People are so fricking stupid. FAKE OUTRAGE is sweeping the nation!

And people will still think the NBA is more thugged out than the NFL

I have yet to hear anyone refer to the NFL as a thug league or full of thugs. But hey as long as fantasy football is popular, they'll love those thugs.

That's because the NFL has far more white players.

The NFL is 31% white (almost entirely US-born)
The NBA is 17% white (mostly foreign)

The NBA stars with the highest endorsement earnings black
The NFL players with the highest endorsement earnings are white

Most QBs are white, which are the highest paid position.

NFL also have vastly more players than the NBA. Now someone pull up arrest % for the NFL and NBA.

Over a two year period ran more than 10 red lights oh yeah that's so damn thug. $285 fine he's hard. Come on you can find more than this to hate on the NBA about. How about a owner who is illegally taped making some comments in the privacy of his own home and forced to sell his team for comments. Or Danny Ferry who is says African in him and resigns, or the owner who bemoans the fact his audience is a lower demographic who doesn't t spend enough money at games. NBA is garbage but for a whole lot more reasons than this one.

Scared me for a second. I run 4-5 red lights a day in Houston. It is impossible not to when driving downtown

And see if you can find data on violent crimes while you're at it.
