John Wall is a Thug

I see nothing wrong here. Z got him with 2 elbows to the face. The ball was protected and Z got 2 elbows while doing so. ANY player would swing back on that. I am not saying that fighting is a part of this game but, there are very few that would let that slide without doing something back. Big Z, Wall and Howard deserve fines and suspensions which I am sure that they will get.

Yall so quick to throw out THUG on here. We all know that he is but, it just seems like you were sitting back waiting on something to happen to call out THUG.

If he shoved him it would have not been a big issue but he punches him during the game. Really a cheap shot too as Z was holding a ball and playing basketball and the guy just sticks him in the side instead of playing D.

Yeah, IDK, I think this is what it is. It's a physical game and these things happen. I understand Z playing tough and I also understand Wall getting pissed. Z is probably used to guys guarding him that are quite a bit taller where he elbows aren't in their face. These players are HUMANS, anyone gets a little pissed with an elbow to the face. If anything, good for Wall for sticking up for himself.

But LOL at anyone holding Z back, he could just run a rampage if he wanted too.

As in thug? No, stop that. Barkley got into many, many fights like this and I wouldn't call him a thug. Now Arenas, getting busted with guns in the locker room, THAT is what I call a thug.

Thug is not the case. This is just an example of not being very smart and having a huge ego. If you know how the NBA works, Wall should have just hit the ground holding his face and hoped for a foul. I do not stand for flopping but in this case he was clearly touched, unlike the whole Chris Bosh incident.

McGee and Howard getting involved is just another example of letting your emotions override your intelligence. The entire situation could have easily been avoided and I hope all 4 are fined and suspended for a period of time.

      Canales doesn't sound all the way sold on Bryce

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what I heard and I should know--when you all were dating, I was studying how coaches communicate to reporters.  Who's laughing now? First, what we know:  He does not have any serious talks (that we know of) to extend him at this point.   Second, Canales says that we do not need to be changing things just to change them.  I thought that was an interesting statement. Why would a QB do that?  What is the reason?   In that answer, you find the source of DC's frustration. Finally, the reality of Bryce has to be setting in.  Bryce's agent is likely contacting Dan Morgan about the fifth year or second contract.  For Bryce to be effective, is he really going to need an elite TE, a $100m offensive line, two thousand-yard rushers, a stable full of WRs, and a defense that keeps him from playing from behind (making him one dimensional and a thrower?)   If Bryce wants $50m, we simply can't afford the supporting cast.

      I believe the same of you. You're making a simplistic argument for something that is obviously more complex. Everyone wants Bryce to thrive on the field, and everyone loves Bryce the person, and it's not really saying anything that a coach has real or unrealistic expectations, but everyone also knows that Bryce is going to have to do much more than he has done in 2026. That's the simple crux of the matter.
