Callaway Posted November 23, 2004 Author Share Posted November 23, 2004 Whew-who! They found the jerk that started it all... guess what? He's got a few drunken driving tickets, too. He's also on probation. Surprise anyone? :) 584974158[/snapback] Not necessarily, but here's the information on the supposed cup tosser. http://www.badjocks.com/ The attorney for John Frank Green, the man authorities believe set off the Pacers Ron Artest by tossing a cup on him as he lay on the scorer's table, claims his client did nothing wrong and that it's the media that's portraying him negatively. "Everyone is targeting him as the villain," Sean Patrick Smith said about his client. "He's not a villain. The Pacers are the villains." Later, after his client made the moronic statement, "If they're going to charge me, charge. But what are they going to charge me with?" Smith quickly followed-up with "If he did it, the most he did was throw a cup of ice. Now he's being made out to be a monster.""Fan in White Hat" Update: Guess Who's Got a Criminal Record? - John Frank Green, the man identified as the "fan in the white hat" who authorities now believe started the melee at the Palace of Auburn Hills when he threw a cup of beer on Pacer Ron Artest, has apparently been in trouble with the law before and is currently on probation. According to Oakland County Prosecutor David Gorcyca (ironically, a former neighbor) Mr. Green has several previous criminal convictions, including one for felony assault with intent to do great bodily harm. We hope he was holding that beer for a friend, because a condition of Green's probation was that he not drink alcohol, in part because of previous drunken-driving convictions. Below is a list of his offenses: * 2003 -- Operating under the influence of liquor/operating while visibly impaired (second offense) * 1989 -- Assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder * 1989 -- Escape from prison * 1986 -- Carrying concealed weapons * 1986 -- Uttering and publishing, which is using a false, forged, altered or counterfeit record, deed or instrument to injure or defraud. Gorcyca also said that Green was a season ticket holder who is now barred from the Palace because of the incident. (At right, a still image of John Green in the stands right before the trouble started between the Pacers and Piston's fans Friday night.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyLarry Veteran Posted November 23, 2004 Veteran Share Posted November 23, 2004 During the "Today" interview, Artest plugged a new CD from a group on his record label three times and wore a T-shirt and hat emblazoned with the logo of TruWarier Records. Looks like Ronny boy is not all that concerned over the suspension if he can take the time to plug away his record label the first time he publicly speaks. :no: Source: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=1929822 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psybapunk Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Artest is a spoiled brat, he shouldn't even be allowed to play in the NBA, all he does is drag his team down with his half-assed rapping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you guys say the same thing about Rasheed Wallace when he went to Detriot? You all whined how he would drag Detroit down. He sure did drag them down :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
