Here is a link about Beasley being fined $50,000 for the Rookie Transition Program this month. That is more then Arthur and Chalmers. He must of done something pretty bad.

Michael Beasley-F- Heat Sep. 18 - 6:50 pm et

Miami Heat rookie Michael Beasley was fined $50,000 by the NBA on Thursday for his involvement in an incident at the Rookie Transition Program this month.

Details are sketchy, but it's also being reported that Beasley failed to cooperate with the league's investigation of Mario Chalmers and Darrell Arthur, who were actually sent home from the camp. Beasley's career is off to an interesting start. The Heat were reluctant to take him with the No. 2 pick, he has had all kinds of agent drama and now he's been fined $30,000 more than the guys who were caught in a room with women and "smoke." But he still hasn't done anything that would scare us away from him in fantasy drafts.

Key words:

failed to cooperate with the league's investigation

'Nuff said.

You know J.R. Rider was a stud in college also. A man child in a SG body.

Beasley should read up on Rider.

So once again, Kansas players get the better of a K-State guy.

Beasley should have told everything he knew just on the principle of sticking it to some Kansas guys

 

[Ed O]

If he had a choice between a $50k fine and looking like a rat to his peers? A $50k fine is probably totally worth it.

Agreed.

I think that we know that there are other forums. I think that you should probably not worry about it.

Agreed Ed. Sure, he takes some heat, but these guys care a lot about their reputation in the league.

His first loyalty should be to his school and he wouldn't be a rat, he'd be a hero to them.

I guess you were talking about my original post? I don't have a problem posting it in the Bulls forum and next time I have a post about another team I will try and remember. There is a couple things about that though. First I want to discuss it with the posters I know and want their opinion and second I don't see many posters there. I get your point though if I do post it in the Bulls forum it might get more posters in that forum. I might just next time post it in both forums that might be interested in the subject. I hope that makes sense.

heat, not bulls

Your right Heat not Bulls. I must have the Bulls on my mind from an earlier post.

Up to this point I'd just assumed Beasley had probably ratted them out!

I'll assume you are joking.

 

[BasX]

Agreed.

National Title?

I guess you don't know ED O. I don't think he was joking.

 

[Master Shake]

Oh I see. Well, if he wasn't, I think he should be. But I rather not get in to this. So, don't mind me.

You can say what you want, but people trying to push Blazers fans outside of our forum (especially when so many of us JUST got here) are doomed to fail and simply annoy the majority of us.

If people don't want to contribute to the conversation, that's cool. Just don't try to tell us what to talk about.

[Natebishop3]

Well, this group has a history of discussing the NBA in general. And not just the NBA, but politics and other worldly topics. It's a close group, which is pretty much why we all left after the other forum started to mess with the core. Not a good idea.

 

[Kid Chocolate]

Post where you want!

if you can post where you want why was my who would you rather bang: oprah or starr jones moved from heavy and mature topics (it doesn't get heavier or more mature than oprah!) to jokes and humor. it wasn't even a joke.

Star Jones is the joke

Because I moved it just to annoy you

I want to speak to this point.

S2 has a lot of members who came from other sites that weren't made up of strong team communities like the Blazers fans are. They're speaking up from their own experience is all.

You all have been together a long time and have used the same forum software elsewhere. You know how to find the other forums if you want. It's not site policy to move threads from team forums to their "proper place" in other team forums, or direct people where to post.

We'd be much better served to build communities like the Blazers in every team forum than try to push people to post where they don't want to or in ways that otherwise dilute the wonderful community spirit you guys have.

I spy a double standard

I spy a failed experiment that ultimately made nobody happy for the few days we tried it.
