Fight

Posted by: Bradley McDonald

Here's a good article from Sports Illustrated's website about the fight in the NBA game Friday night. The writer, Phil Taylor, says that the problem is deeper than security, or the fans, or even Ron Artest. The problem is an underlying anger in our society. Taylor says that today "we flip each other off in the car more, and fire off angry e-mails" because the standards for acceptable behavior have changed. There's an evident lack of respect for other people in our society today and I think Taylor was right on with his article.
