Yahoo is bugging for this one VOL. Athlete kisses Reporter, all Hell breaks loose.

Wonder what would happen if an NBA player tried to pull a Rampage Jackson. :lol:
 
Kelly Dwyer is paid to make entire blog posts out of the smallest clips and happenings in the NBA.

This is his way of making an entire post out of that meaningless clip. It's either this or somehow turning "did he smash?" into 3000 words.

IMO dude is salty because Daquan from the basketball team has been stealing his white queens for years and he found an opportunity to "get back" at a Daquan.

Don't see how this writer is so concerned when she obviously didn't care. I felt like she was kinda feeling him with that last comment about his "game".

He probably drilling in the team showers before games. Let that man cook.

Sounds like he's trying to flip the whole domestic violence, sexual harassment evil black man narrative of the past few months into some vitriol for this player.  'Yeah, hey, don't do that.'  Am I reading a 15 year old's diary?  This is an article made out of clear emotion and probably some jealousy.  A lot of sports writers are secretly envious of NBA players and the lives they lead.

Secretly?!?! I'd say it's damn near a job requirement. 
 
Look at this gump *** writer though. You can tell his peen stay dryer than the mojave.

Excerpt

People forget that less than 100 years ago women didn’t have the right to vote. Universal suffrage for men and women of all races only truly came into being after the passage of the 19th amendment in 1919. Since then, society has slowly opened up more doors for women, like Clifton, to excel in jobs and positions men traditionally hold. In sports, particularly, it’s still a male-dominated world, one Clifton has had to navigate on her way to her present position.

Even after all that progress, all it takes is one awkward smooch by Tristan to remind everyone we’re not quite past the anachronistic chauvinism on display last century. Since the ill-fated kiss, people have turned the 23-year-old Thompson into a meme and made light of his foolhardy exchange. The act was piggishness, pure and simple, and the NBA should suspend him, or — at the very least — fine him for his behavior. Allie Clifton isn’t a plaything, she’s a sideline reporter trying to do her job.

We hope Lance Stephenson blows in Thompson’s ear and kisses him on the side of his head when he’s trying to do his job. We hope the NBA acts to fine or suspend Thompson even though it’s a preseason game and Clifton handled it like the pro. That’s because she is a pro. The kiss was workplace harassment pure and simple, so hopefully the NBA takes a firm stand next week, so we never have to witness something like this again.

Which is more sexist in itself than the act was
 
Jeez. This writer needs to stop acting like a P.


This was no big deal. Nba fining him? Ok because they have their policies but this dude writing an article like that? I hope he wrote an article on the Aaron Hernandez case with as much passion, because you know that guy actually killed people. Lol

Dude needs to chill out.

Stuff like this is becoming the norm.

NBA/NFL will get whittled down to nothing just so these white knights/feminists don't get their feelings hurt. It's absolutely ridiculous.
 
The way the NBA players stick together and craft things...

I wouldn't be surprised if one of them kisses a male reporter on the head...

NBA players are the smartest, funniest pros... And get trashed the most because we can see their faces and tattoos up close and personal...

I won't argue that because your right. But something about the crybaby whiny tone of the writer irked me, and it does resemble how alot of people overreact, throw tantrums and make something out the most unnecessary things in today's society.
