They say god protects babies and fools.

Yeah, like with everything, the backlash against Amar'e over this is too over the top- he messed up, but who hasn't? The amount of work he's put into these past two years gets him a pass. Still would be great if he focused on defense though.

He wrote one stupid tweet and since then he's beene xcusing himself and saying it wasn't his fault and that because the injury is so bad we should feel bad for him. No, man up for your teammates and the fans and say you were a dumbass, apologize more than once and promise to everyone that you'll never do something like that again.

He's said he shouldn't of done it, that it was also unlucky, and he has spoken to his team mates, which is all he really needs to do. Some people seem to want him to bow down before them and beg for forgiveness- why? We all know he regrets it, we all know he wants to play, I don't get why you need to see a proud person grovel.

I've broken my hand punching in anger and it was a full on fist right across the knuckles. That looks like more a situation where he was just looking to make a loud noise and release a little steam. It's just too bad that he hit at just the right angle to break glass rather than just slap a box and make noise. That is one NASTY cut.

Figures you would not be mad at him and rarely blame him - hillarious

Yes, imagine that- a fan on a fan messageboard who actually supports his team and players instead of passionately hating on them all the time! What is the world coming to...
