Kermit Washington is doing some serious work, and the story he tells about Artest does not surprise me because there are a lot of off-camera stories about Artest like that. As for the punch, he could have thrown the same punch and if nothing happened to Rudy T, then it would be a forgotton footnote. Just horrible luck. Yes, great interview.

Washington was tarred as an animal by fans and the media and that was unfair considering he was pratically blackballed from the NBA for nearly 20 years, I remember seeing the Brian Gumbel HBO special and watching him in Rwanada and talking about Africa and the his life in the NBA. Clearly Washingston was misunderstood in context and NBA players who are involved in charity. great interview, I remember seeing that fight on the news when I was 11 and even then I thought Washington was just defending his teammate like our coaches in little football taught us too.

How would we as a society deal with such a horrific statistic over hear. Thank God there are people like Kermit. He gets my applause no matter what.
