The Biggest Baby of them All!

This is so incredibly ridiculous it's almost not believable...the father of the 12-year-old boy bumped by Celtics big man Glen "Big Baby" Davis after Sunday's game-winning shot is demanding an apology.

Ernest Provetti told the Orlando Sentinel that he wrote the NBA office demanding an apology from Davis for acting like a "raging animal with no regard for fans' personal safety." NBA spokesman Tim Frank confirmed the league received the e-mail but declined to comment on it.

Mr. Provetti a few things to ponder. Would you be feeling this way if that was Dwight Howard brushing away your fat-ass son after he hit the game winning shot? Would you have preferred Davis to steamroll your overweight offspring (which is where that was going if Big Baby didn't make an obvious effort to slip between your kid and the ref). Did you think for a second that the man just hit the biggest shot of his young NBA career to all but save the Celts season and perhaps was alittle fired up? And last but not least, you have courtside seats!!! Just like a fan at a baseball game can't sue if he gets hit by a line drive, sitting on the floor comes with a price...sweat, profanity, players diving onto your lap....deal with it boss, sitting courtside at a basketball game is without doubt the most intimate setting in sports...better than 50-yard line seats at a football game, better than behind the plate at a ball game.

If you don't like sex, drugs and rock and roll, don't get back stage passes to The Rolling Stones...if you don't want the possibility of a player interfering with your enjoyment of the game, go sit in the cheap seats my friend!
