The Birdman. That's when Anderson's two-year suspension for violating the league's drug policy expires. Anderson has been working out in Las Vegas getting ready to resume his career, and it's anticipated that the Hornets, who last held his rights, will not reinstate his contract (3 1/2 years left on a four-year, $14 million deal), which will make Anderson a free agent. "He's exceeded expectations in every area," reports Anderson's agent, Steve Heumann. "We're moving forward to the first applicable moment to apply for reinstatement." Anderson turned 29 in July and has several years of NBA experience under his belt. He would be the first player to come back from a drug suspension and actually play in the NBA</p>

I live in New orleans, so I watched alot of him! He's a pretty fun player to watch, great energy, very animated, he was just all over the place.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticKing)</div><div class='quotemain'> Here it goes...</div> </p> No wonder he got suspended for drugs; he was on them . </p> He does not seem like a serious player to me. Yes, he can bring energy, but can he do anything else?

Welcome Stretch! </p> let's hope Birdman makes a team this year, so we have somethin to talk about whenever he makes a crazy block/dunk.</p> i loved him on the Nuggets, he seemed like a good, energetic hustle player. </p>
Is it unethical for me to hate the Birdman because he looks like white trash? I'm serious.</p> (not looking to stir up trouble, merely looking to discuss a philosophical issue in an academic conversation)</p>

Eh, I think judging a person based on their appearance (prejudice) is unethical. I just can't help but look at this tatted up white guy with narsty hair and find a distaste for them. While there's nothing wrong with finding a certain style unfashionable, making associations to character and personality is different matter.
It really has nothing to do with ethics. We all make judgments about the way people look or act or talk; instantaneous subconscious reactions that we can't control. It may be distasteful--even when we realise that we are doing it ourselves--but it's not unethical. Now, if we charge someone more for our service for the way they look--that is probably unethical. Check out the movie The Breakfast Club for a look at stereotypes that turn out to be misguided.

</p> i like the birdman...he is a legitimate energy guy who goes after those blks and rebs without regard to self...can be used to keep the energy up when staters sit down or during garbage minutes...</p>
