Have you followed this NBA's offseason at all?

teams had to give contracts out just to reach salary floor.

I agree that there are meathead bully police out there in the city but the "victim" is a 300 lb dude that apparently brandished the firearm (illegaly possessing) enough that the police were called.

This wasnt a random search of a dude minding his own business. The guy was obviously resisting and I believe there was a sense of panic in the two police on the ground wrestling with an armed man. I'm not gonna judge a cop fearing for his life.

frick it tho, if it fits your narrative just call the cops murderers. This is why we will never get anywhere. Common sense and facts go out the window.

I can't wait till the video showing that the officers wrestled with AS for 20 min comes out.
And not to mention a convicted Felon with a gun gets 5 years. That's why he wasn't cooperating

I don't need an investigation. I saw incontrovertible proof with my own eyes that his gun was still 100% IN HIS POCKET. There is no way in hell that was a clean shoot.

You cannot fear for your life from a weapon still in a pocket. Period.

You'd rather the team owners keep more and more of the billions the sport generates? Would that make you feel better about the country? Or are you just anti-capitalism?


Nope, I'd rather them not pay players exorbitant amounts of money so the average Joe wouldn't have to take out a 2nd mortgage to take his family to a game and buy a hot dog.

THIS IS A PROBLEM. WE ARE THE JUDGES of the police. The gun was still in his pocket.

Irrational fear for your life is not a protection.

This crap you spew about players making too much shows you don't follow the NBA or its TV dollars. Admit you don't know what you're talking about.

Is anyone surprised that the Prince of the Baton Rouge Primerica Empire would say this?

There are thousands of people in the public right now spewing more idiotic, uneducated, unfactual stuff. You are putting more focus on this one guys because he's from baton rouge, and most importantly because he played a sport at LSU. His opinion is not more important, factual, uneducated than any other person out there. I wish people would get off their high horses, and stop putting such a premium on what professional and collegiate athletes say and do.


Negative. When it comes to this issue, Temple's opinion is going to be prominent. Dude needs to shut the frick up instead of stoking the flames right now. His opinion was important enough to be quoted in the media, and it has an impact on the young men in BR that will look up to him. Ridiculous for him to be spewing that rhetoric until the facts are brought to light, and for further pushing the narrative that BR and its police force are not progressive (ie, dog whistle for racist) in the wake of cold blood murder of cops for racial reasons. OP is right to call him out. That divisiveness is not what we need right now.

When Garrett does his own poll everyone complains. Now you know how we feel abt idiot Trump supporters and their outlandish polls saying he will be our next president.

They don't have a choice. They have to pay 51% to the players per the rules.
