NBA PLAYER FLASHING A GUN ?

pdoidoipdoidoi Posts: 110 ✭✭✭

I caught a tiny bit on TV about a NBA player flashing a gun. I only saw just a few seconds of it and have not seen or heard any more of it. I thought if that is the case I would be hearing much more about it. If that is true I would think that such player would most likely be suspended. Any updates on this or anyone know what really happened ?

    if a picture is worth a thousand words, this one may be worth at least 10k

    who might those two people on the couch be and what is strewn all over that room?

    answers: Ja, a stripper, and thousands upon thousands of dollars in cash (he blew 50k in 2 days at that joint)

    pains me to say this because I absolutely love his game, but Ja Morant may be the biggest imbecile in all of sports

    and here's the aforementioned pic of him brandishing a fireman.......at the strip club

    That is crazy. He should have done that at home, or at least where the whole world could not have seen. A very good way to ruin your career. Great role model.

    Moronic behavior

    I'm a huge gun guy but promote safety and responsibility above all and this type of stuff is neither

    Hydrant,please believe that I'm saying this with as much affection as possible. Why would you post a picture of your granddaughter with a reference that it recently rained in a thread where Ja Morant has a stripper on his lap and what looks to be about 10K worth of rain around the room?
    We all know how proud you are of her but you have the absolute worst timing when it comes to posting pics of her here. This was not a good thread for her to be in.

    Talking about Thugs with guns and strippers isn't exactly my idea of a pleasant Sunday afternoon.

    Bye, Bye....

    You have brought Facebook to this site. What you post is the same as Facebook.

    I have no problem of you posting your pictures on your post but please think,maybe everyone does not want it in their post.
    If i am reading the the sports page or the news the last thing I want is Facebook type pictures in the middle.

  • pdoidoipdoidoi Posts: 110 ✭✭✭

    When I say your post , what I mean is a post in which you started. I don't go into someones post and put all my family pictures and say look at me look at me . I am only asking for respect for the original poster who ever it may be.

    That's not a good look. The smart thing would have been to take the pictures at the gun range and then I think most would not have any problems with the picture.

  • GroceryRackPackGroceryRackPack Posts: 1,266 ✭✭✭✭✭

    will Ja Morant card stock drop down & decrease?

  • HydrantHydrant Posts: 7,702 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I thiǹk the joint where it all went down is called "Shotgun Willie's Show Club"
    So,....It all makes perfect sense....


    No Big Deal.....

    ...
    If any thought had been given to the possibility that someone like @hydrant would be using the picture as he did, without any attached contextual info, then maybe they would have done just that. Oooooor they didn't care. Either way, when I saw it I immediately searched it. I was curious. 🤷

    I would guess increase now from the publicity and drop once this story fades away. People were paying absurd prices for Damar Hamlin's cards right after his near death experience. I'm sure his cards stock has dropped since but I honestly haven't checked.

    I grew up in Denver and am familiar with the "Glendale" area (a very small City [about 1.5 square kilometers] surrounded mostly by the City of Denver). Glendale became its own City in 1952.

    Glendale has (as long as I can remember) had nightclubs present and operating within its boundaries. In the 1970s' it had multiple discos that were always hopping. It does not surprise me that it also has clubs of the sort patronized by JA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and likely other professional athletes.

    Funny story about a Glendale disco that I patronized while in college with some of my college hoop buddies.

    For the 1968-1969 school year I was a 7th grader (13 years old) at a middle school in Denver. One of my teachers was an attractive young woman likely in her early to mid 20's.

    Fast forward to either the 1976-1977 school year of the 1977-1978 school year when I was a junior or senior in college playing basketball on the college team (I was 21 or 22 years old at that time). Our team had a Denver road trip. After a road game in Denver me and some of my teammates went to a club in Glendale to have some fun (beers, food and dancing). While at the club, looking around at the other patrons, who did I see????

    My middle school teacher from 7th grade, now about in her mid 30s.

    I recognized her, told my teammates who she was and together we approached her and called out her name. She looked at us, recognized me and talked a little bit with us. However I could tell she was very uncomfortable with the idea of being seen in a Glendale club by a person (me) who she had as a 7th grade student 8 or 9 years earlier.

    Ja Morant just got an 8 game suspension for this.

  • craig44craig44 Posts: 8,082 ✭✭✭✭✭

    What a confusing thread. But, back to Morant. what a moron.

    I will never understand why prominent people consistently put themselves in these types of situations. If you want to drink, do it at home. when you are a celebrity, very little that is good will ever come from you going to a club/bar.

    secondly, I am also a firearms enthusiast. Why Ja would want to show a firearm off in public like that is beyond me. and to think a $200 .380 is impressive enough to "show off" is foolish.

    Now I'm confused, Craig.
    You said he's a moron.
    And it's beyond you???

    I'll clear it up for you.....
    HE DID IT BECAUSE HE'S A MORON!...

    But you already knew that....
    Right?
