    Default so I was thinking

    if the benches clear in a baseball game, not much is made of it, everybody moves on.
    fist fights in hockey happen all the time, but hey, it's a part of the game right?
    soccer brawls happen all over the world, but hey, foreigners are just crazy like that, but.....
    if there is a fight during a basketball game, the NBA has to work on its image because of all the "thugs".....

    something is wrong here.... discuss

    no, I meant fighting between players in the NBA. even when that happens, it's supposedly bc of thuggish behavior that the NBA needs to fix with changing its image

    the whole image thing comes from things they do off the court as well

    but it mainly stems from the artest fight

    i saw a thing on espn2 today about them talkin about this subject. the only sport close to basketball in the "thug" concept is football, but it seems more acceptable because they are in a more physical sport, based on hitting

    The first post makes a lot of sense. It's funny how that works. Good observation.

    this is true

    atleast baseball players take bats
    and football players kill people in buckhead
    and soccer players cause all out riots LOL

    what do basketball players do? attack the people that pay their salary

    common sense isnt their best attribute

    Hockey lets them fight it out so they dont end up stabbing each other with the skates or bashing people in the head with the sticks.
