Stop Drunken 'fan" Behavior!
Sign Now
Dear Mr. Hunter,
By now most sports fans have seen or heard about the chaos that erupted at the end of the Pistons and Pacers game in Detroit last night.
As any follower of the NBA knows, heavey fines and or suspensions are likely to be levied by David Stern, NBA Commissioner.
However as you must be aware Mr. Hunter, this episode is nearly unlike any other in our sports history. There have been few more blatant displays of thuggish fan behaviour. Instance after instance during the fracas, you see "fans" throwing objects at players or running up to them aggressively.
While we certainly regret what occurred, we are simply appealing to you to not allow the NBA to make examples out of the players. We are urging you to use the full power of the players association to aggressively defend the right of every NBA player to be respected as a human being.
If the players must be fined or suspended, we urge you to demand that the police then identify every "fan" who threw objects at the players. Not only should these cowards be banned from every NBA arena, but that the players association should to the fullest extent of the law, press charges against each and every one of them as well.
We are urging you to use this history-making episode as an example to help stamp out the current in vogue crassness, insensitivity and druken behavior that has sadly become commonplace in many sports arenas across the country.
No "fan", Mr. Hunter owns the right to assault any player by throwing objects at him and every man owns the right to defend himself when he is attacked.
Wether he makes $10,000,000 or just $10.

Drunk fans need to learn that their improper behaviour is the main reason for this debacle. NBA players should not enter the stands, but they are human and have their breaking point.
