<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">If only Robert Whaley kept his sharpest knives in the drawer, he might not have six stitches in his right hand. Instead Whaley, the Jazz's 6-foot-10 rookie center, missed practice Sunday and didn't dress for Monday's meeting with Detroit due to what team officials initially called "a kitchen accident." On Monday, Whaley offered details. His 2-year-old son, Robert Jr., is so big he can easily be mistaken for a 5-year-old ? "so he can actually get on the stool that's around my (kitchen) island," Whaley said, "and just grab whatever he wants." Whaley ? oops ? kept his knife block on the island. "He had a knife, singing," Whaley said. "I kind of scared him. He turned around and just threw it, not knowing any better. And I kind of tried to block it, and it just caught me right on the web." Whaley went to a local hospital to have the laceration between his thumb and index finger stitched. The hand was swollen Monday, but Whaley hopes to return in "3-to-4 days." The Jazz did question Whaley about the matter. A Jazz official suggested the explanation was plausible, and the incident won't be held against the rookie whose one-year contract is not fully guaranteed.</div> <div align="center">Source</div>
His 2 year old son threw a kitchen knife at him? That sounds even weirder than "kitchen accident" ...
He doesn't deserve to be in the NBA. Robert Whaley has had so many chances to get his act together, and once again he's in trouble with the law. Then he lies about it to the team and blames it on his 2 year old son. That's inexcusable, get this bum out of the league and give his spot to someone who will appreciate the opportunity. What's worse is Deron Williams is hanging around this knucklehead.
