    Good! I hate Chris Webber. He acts like he's some classy guy. He <font color="DeepSkyBlue">Edited</font> Michigan and then lied about it in a federal court. If it were me or you doing it, we would be in jail yet Chris gets off. Then he gave a B.S apology. Who cares about Webber anyways? He'll get injured or choke once the playoffs around!

    He always chokes in the playoffs. I think he comes back too early from his injuries. If he keeps doing that then he is going to be another Grant Hill.

    Webber is expected to be out untill December anyway. So the league suspending him at the start of the season is stupid unless they will suspend him when he returns for a few games. This seems odd to me.

    Pulled this right out of the article:

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Commissioner David Stern said because Webber is injured, the suspension would be held off until he is healthy.</div>

    I think a suspension in this case is good. NBA players need to be role models for America's youth and need to be held accountable both on and off the court.

    Why should we lay off of Webber? All I know is that the guy is soft and dishonest.

    I'm very dissapointed to see that Richardson was suspended for what he did. Webber on the other hand can rot in hell for what he did to my future Alma Mater.

    What college does not cheat?

    It's all in how you play "the game" if you know what I mean, people get busted by taking it too far. Lay low, and you can get away with it.
