Karl Malone

As much as I'm tired of all the fake drama and cancel culture online... I must say the Jazz and the NBA should say good bye to Karl Malone. Just quiet quit him. Ghost him.

Dont take anything from him. Dont say anything. Just stop bringing him around.

This isn't a cancel him thing or a go after him thing. And I dont care that he's a dead beat dad. It's not cool, but that's between him and his kids/moms.

Great basketball player but a challenged human being.

He belongs in a Subway commercial not representing the Jazz or the NBA.

Great player. List him as a top player. Watch a highlight on youtube. Stop inviting him to nba/jazz functions.

He's a rapist, by pretty much any definition...... Hard to type that, since he's such a Jazz legend, but he is......

Jazz should take a more proactive role in disassociating from his image/name......

Certainly not a good situation and no one condones what was done.

However, how many years/decades later after someone in their teens or twenties says or does something reprehensible do we forgive them and accept who they have become?

After they say hey I am sorry for raping a 13 year old child??

Has he asked to be forgiven? Stated he was wrong to rape a child?

If only Fogle could hoop I guess

Kobe should get the same treatment.
Kobe Bryant being forgiven and treated like a hero when he died kind of exposes most NBA fans as complete hypocrites.

I believe Koby was married while Malone wasn't. Plus age wise. But this is the first time I'm hearing it was rape and not just to very young kids. Seams to be more about hate and less about forgiving others.

I agree. I'm all for people being able to be reformed and letting them move on, but that doesn't mean they should continue to be extremely celebrated, especially in this case.

Joe Biden has been accused multiple times of rape or sexual assault and is president, while being widely celebrated. Same with Donald Trump. Bill Clinton had taken advantage of an underling is still widely celebrated. The point is, most people are hypocrites and only condemn when it fits their agenda.

We are talking about Malone, here, and what we think his relationship to the organization should be.

And I am pointing out the hypocrisy of our country, and how those with money can get away with these situations.

No doubt? Pretty strong claim. Did he have a child yeah but was it rape? Unless your in that room it's only accused. 40 years ago and zero rape charges since then allows me to believe it's worth forgiving him of his mistake. I'm not about to thrown any stones at Karl for something 40 years ago. This thread is stupid and should be locked.

She was 12 and he was 19, that is statutory rape. She was 13 when she had his kid.

Not defending the situation but everything I have read said she was 13 and was 14 when she had Demetruss.

Kids cant be held to contracts they sign and have a seperate court system. They also cannot consent to sex with an adult.

I wonder what you guys would call it if some adult messed around with YOUR 12 year old daughter. If she was a white girl from the suburbs you'd have no idea who Karl Malone is.

And stop trying to muddy this with allegations about others. We know this went down.

Karl Malone should not be representing the organization.

She was 13, that's way below age of consent........ It's absurd to defend that behavior by saying it was 40 years ago.......
