State Department should make a swap. Release the three players and you can toss LaVar in prison for as long as you want. Probably wouldn't be too long before they got sick of all his chirping, send him back to the USA and everything would be status quo.

I can't believe it took this long for the university to declare they've been suspended.

Sparking an embarrassing international incident that could have resulted in extensive jail time shouldn't be a slap on the wrist type offense, but... Coach Alford said they would have to "earn their way back" LOL whatever that means. I'm sure they won't miss any "big" games.

UCLA needed overtime to beat Central Arkansas last night. I think the freshmen will be back.

Seems like a LaVar Ball move. Rather than face the music and become a better person for it, take your ball and go home.

LaVar Ball is the biggest POS media monger that I can remember in recent history. In today's age it's almost more about how much you can talk and blow smoke than to actually play well. I can hardly stand to watch sports talk shows because it is all just filler and ridiculous statements to pass the time. Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith can fall off a cliff as far as I'm concerned. I am a fan of players who act like they have been there before ala Jerry Rice, LaDanian Tomlinson ect ect.

If no one paid attention to or reacted to LaVar's antics then he would have faded away by now. I'm right there with you, the (LaVar) Balls, Baylesses, and Smiths don't deserve any notoriety, yet they're all on TV. It's a societal issue that only looks to get worse.

Can't see it getting better, but the more we give them time, the bigger and more of these type of personalities will pop up.

I love Papi too much!
