way to try and throw it all away

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7f61NzbNfkw

the girl did try to break her arm and i'm sure she faces all types of goonery being such a dominant force but this is an unfortunate situation for the development of someone who has potential to become the most dominant individual in all of sports

Any pub is good pub

The only attention I've paid to women's collegiate sports in the past year were this and the psycho soccer bitch

Its better to be known and hated than not to be known at all

it's an unfortunate situation, sure

but it's a punch

people throw punches during basketball and football games on a regular basis

she didn't stab the girl

she'll be suspended three games or so and it'll be fine

i realize this is a mambagirl thread, but come on

no one is trying to throw it all away

we've only had one really good punch since the Rudy T punch

and IMO that was jermaine o'neal in the palace brawl, it looked like something out of street fighter

I love how the refs totally missed that texas tech girl throwing Brittany(the Baylor center) down to the ground a few seconds b4 the punch was thrown, the blond chick got what was coming her way. You do something dirty in a ball game be ready to accept the consequences!!

I hate to say it, but I really hope they suspend her for the rest of the year, including all postseason play (since she only has one regular season game remaining, and it's automatically at least one game by rule). Even in Men's Basketball, this shit is outrageous.

I don't know this girl, only what I've seen of her from the dunking stuff in the past, but it gives the sport a huge black eye (literally and figuratively). The impression I get is that she is a thug who knows how to play ball. And to be honest, I would look for the real response to come from her coach. If there isn't a serious penalty handed down from her coach and Baylor, then it's basically clear that they don't care about the incident. As a freshman, this is when you either teach her a lesson and she grows up and learns to control her temper, or she realizes that because she is really good (like Chris Paul), she can do whatever she wants and get a slap on the wrist.

three sides to every story.

if the refs didn't keep control of the game and the TTU girl had been playing dirty all night, people can't be shocked when the girl's had enough.

There's no excuse for PUNCHING A GIRL IN THE FACE.

I don't care how the refs call the game. I can see a flagrant foul in retaliation, but a punch just shows that you have no self control.

dirty play by the white girl

but griner should be forced to sit until next year, there's no place for that in organized sports

while i don't condone that sort of behavior, that was a weak punch. soccer girl > griner

^It's a part of the game in hockey, it isn't in other sports. I think if you were allowed to consistently check people into stuff during basketball or football then they would probably allow fights.

cmon. i've always found it kinda odd that they allow fights in hockey, but whatver, that's tradition, and it makes hockey tolerable.

but to compare that to a sucker-punch in a basketball game? the girl probably deserved it, but cmon.

Unrelated, but right now Patrick Swayze is beating the living shit out of a guy in Roadhouse. Maybe if she was more like him, I'd let it slide.

It should be a one game suspension. It just seemed to be a quick emotional response to getting the fuck fouled out of her. If it had been some premeditated shit I could see a stiffer suspension.

Anything more is sexist b/c similar shit in the men's game has been taken that lightly (Henderson's elbow to Hansbrough's face comes to mind; although I don't recall if that was quite as blatant as this).

gtfo w/ that sexist card

that was def a dirty play by henderson, and repercussions were deserved, but he didn't sucker-punch tyler.

That Texas Tech player got what she RIGHTFULLY deserved! She gets mad bc while fighting for positioning with Brittany, she wasnt strong enough so she gets takes it into her own hands, and thats why the Baylor player has the blond Texas tech chick making an appt. with her plastic surgeon next week!

I can't really remember, i'll have to go look at a video. But just b/c it was a roundhouse punch doesn't automatically make it worse. It just looked worse to you b/c there was more motion involved. The result was the same. Hell I think Hansbrough bled a lot more.

I think this is more comparable to Legarrette Blount who got suspended for most of the regular season.

blond girl had it coming. she was laughing on the bench talking to her teammates after that anyways.

2 game suspension is fine in my book.

Yes. The intent here was to harm. Henderson was coming down and to me never looked intentional. Maybe he did know Hansborough was behind him so he came down harder than on purpose, but that was during play. This was a "I'm going to walk up to you and knock you the fuck out" choice.

I'm not saying the blonde girl didn't "deserve it", but there's no place for that on the court of a collegiate game. She should be suspended the rest of the season.

I think henderson was fully aware that someone was behind him. Was it as intentional as walking up and round housing someone? No. I don't think either case were true accidents but I do think this one was substantially worse. She swung a closed fist at a girl whose back was turned. That is bottom line dirty. Is she being charged by local law enforcement? It will be interesting to see what suspension she gets.

2 games.

1 game NCAA mandated and 1 extra by the school.

And we see how weak the school is. They are saying that they don't care what happens in the conference tournament, but they don't want this to affect their NCAA chances.

Well, now the Women's NCAA is just as legit as Men's football and basketball.

it was a punch but it wasn't a sucker punch. It was a straight up right hook to the face and face to face. Fighting is not nice.

Not sure how it is in Texas, but it is my understanding that in NC you can't be charged with simple assault for something that takes place during a game, even if it's rec league.

Admittedly, my only experience with that is as it pertains to hockey, so I'm not sure if basketball is the same even in NC.
