    Unless Oden hung out all the time with his wang out at Halloween parties (which I suppose is possible) then this is an entirely different situation.

    The difference is Duncan and Parker were holding fake weapons. Oden could use his thing to club baby seals.

    Not really. I didn't care one way or another. None of my business. I mean, I wouldn't take pictures of myself nude and send them out, given today's social media craze, but if that's what people want to do, that's their choice.

    Now, if hot chicks want to send me pics, then I would definitely approve.

    I'm pretty sure his hang-down was a baby seal.

    But really, two very different situations. Most people weren't offended by Oden's pic. The response was more, "Well, that was dumb and immature." With this, I've seen some comments where people were like, "Joking around with guns, real or not, is not appropriate." Yadda yadda yadda.

    This reminds me of the time when I took a picture of little boys and sold them to old men.

    Well money talks and I would bet this Jackson character got some kind of recegnition for it. Did Duncan and Parker really believe this picture was going to be kept secret?

    That's frickin' hilarious. Spur-of-the-moment actions, meant to be funny.

    Unless, of course, one of them spoke the phrase, "Hi, PapaG."

    I'm surprised David Stern has not done anything yet it's not like him.

    The only people that would be up in arms would be Blazers beat writers and their fans. Thus, no double standard.

    Horse patootie. Duncan and Parker have both built a reputation as non-knuckleheads for their entire careers. Wallace and Stoudemire were both known for doing stupid things right from the beginning.

    And besides, this doesn't even count as a "stupid thing." The only thing they did wrong was trust their dipshit teammate not to let this photo get out into the public domain.

    I think they wanted it to get out to the public eye. I bet you it was all planed. When is the next time Joey refs a Spurs game or is he saving it for the playoffs?:stirthepot:

    If it was Sheed and Stoudamire, Crapzano would have a tizzy fit, make a headline story, and then would bring the story up year after year after year.

    However, if it was Lillard and Aldrige, Crapzano would not say anything.

    He calls it reporting. I call it "an agenda" and using the old Jail Blazers era to make a name for yourself.
