This seems like a money grab. I couldn't imagine being rich and everyone trying to eat off my back like that.

I'd say Siakam, though honestly I think we need to move off from a lot of guys in order to properly rebuild including Siakam. Doubt it happens though because the FO are true believers of our core.

You guys have a pretty nice player in Ant to build around, he's going to be a staple in the playoffs in the future.

I hope you get a high pick in next draft to get a starting guard prospect!

I agree. I think there are two sets of people. Those that earn their money, and those that believe they “deserve” unearned money if someone else has more.

If I was the “victim” here, who’s biggest contribution was just happened to be standing near a chair, I’d never ask Ant to compensate me. My only reward would be an interesting story to share with my friends, and maintaining my own self-worth by believing I was doing the right thing, not sueing someone else for money.

Unless there is more to it than that video, there is nothing there that merited criminal charges. C'mon.

If this basketball thing doesn't work out though Ant has a future in WWE.

Everyone is a victim these days. Me Me Me Me Me.

Whoever this person is, beyond any personal medical expense (if any), they could turn this into a positive and just ask for a photo op and money/time donated by Ant to their favorite charity/cause, then they get a little positive publicity and everyone wins.

But that's not gonna happen now with the lawyers/government involved.
