Comments on The WNBA: Where Pimp-Slaps with a Backhand Happen

there are fights because people want them.

Showtime! Hell yeah Coop was the man back in the day. what a team, Magic, Kareem, Byron, James Worthy and COOP.

I'm partially with with Coop on this one, despite his poor choice of words.

Dirk is a monster talent and is nonsense to call him soft, he plays his german butt off, and he does the right thing in walking away from fights and taunts, BUT YOU NEVER, EVER, LET NO ONE TOUCH YOUR FACE. NEVER, specially since DIRK was the one that WALKED UP TO HIM.

Agreed. I'd be on the razor's edge between cool or not. Reminds me of all that stupid slap fight tomfoolery on here a while back.

our culture finds it acceptable, perhaps even "necessary", to respond in kind when you are insulted in some way. we have made a vice a virtue. it would be great to see this change.

negative campaign ads are the political equivalent. i'm glad for obama's approach, and in the same way, i appreciate nowitzki's approach.
