I don’t think being confronted is worth $1M but apparently Michael Axelrod does. In last night’s game in Chicago, Antonio Davis jumped into the stands because he thought his wife was being threatened. “I witnessed my wife being threatened by a man that I learned later to be intoxicated. I saw him touch her, and I know I should not have acted the way I did, but I would have felt terrible if I didn’t react. There was no time to call security. It happened too quickly.” After Davis went into the stands, security intervened and Davis calmly returned to the bench.
No harm no foul. But I guess when you want to sue for $1M for battery (by a woman) and slander, you have to say things like this:
I don’t feel comfortable if players are allowed to easily jump into the crowd whenever they feel like it’s necessary.
You know, one time, Gary Payton sneered at me. I want half.
