No place for violence in sport

After viewing the entire video of the Pistons brawl I must say I'm left shocked and angry. It brought up memories of Bertuzzi's hit on Moore on March 8 in Vancouver during a NHL game. Both were completely unnecessary reaction to a situation. A pro-level sportsman's aggression seems to be heightened by their over-inflated ego. The difference between Artest and Bertuzzi is that one was apologetic, the other seems to have found an excuse to promote a rap video. There were at least 10 scenes during the Pistons brawl that warranted legal charges. Chairs were thrown, punches were flying and heads were kicked. Charge these people with crimes. Janet Jackson's breast and the Monday night football "Desperate Housewives" intro are not reasons for moral outrage. This is.
