You Did This To Yourself

Carmelo Anthony, who up until the season started was one Nike's "Golden Boys" of pro basketball, did not make the NBA All-Star Team this season. Some people are calling it a "snub." Much like his "keeping it real" persona lacking any real credibility, it's right-on.

About 2 months ago he was involved in a fight with the New York Knicks. Anthony stands about 6'8'', weighs in around 230lbs. Top physical shape. Strong. Young. Athletic. He threw a punch at a guy... well, "punch" is being generous... He closed-handed-slapped another guy from just within arm's reach, then backpedaled away like the dude had the results of Anthony's drug test. RAN BACKWARDS away from the guy while being held back by his 47 year-old assistant coach with a surgically repaired hip. Had Carmelo been holding a purse, it would have looked like an old Ruth Buzzi sketch. So with the All Star ballots counted, what does Carmelo Anthony,

Anthony's quote, much like most athletes who "just want to move on," and have yet to grow a pair of adult testes and apologize for doing something dumb...
"I hope no one holds that over my head over anything," he said. "Things happen. One incident like that is held over one person's head, life ain't fair.
"I did my punishment. I could've easily kept my name out there by appealing it and doing other stuff about it, but I just did my 15 games suspension and hopefully put that behind us."

You're right, 'Melo. Life ain't fair. You are a famous multimillionaire without a college degree, you've had far more handed to you than you've earned. A lot of people work as hard at their jobs as you do at being a professional jackload who plays basketball really well. You didn't get arrested for assault and battery. And yet you are complaining.
Eat.
Sh*t.

I think we have all learned the real lesson. Next time he goes to throw a punch, try to throw at least like an adult, if not a man. Scratching another man's face is not worth a 15-game suspension. More like 30 for being a giant p*ss.

Keep it "real."
