The league is probably moving away from that as a whole, but the perception is still negative for many. I think many people still have the 2004 melee between Indiana & Detroit in their minds, instead of the positive things that are being done but not widely known. The whole thing with the NBA hosting the All-Star Game to help rebuild New Orleans is a tremendous idea. The NFL should consider skipping Hawaii for its Pro Bowl and doing something similar.
Seems like the Pacers have a lot of trouble with the law nowadays, no more Reggie Millers...
Long as I remember The rain been coming down. Clouds of Mystery pouring Confusion on the ground. Good men through the ages, Trying to find the sun; And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.
