Here is what needs to happen. I guess the players are to blame. But I can't 
blame them too much. I go to Jazz games and I hear what is said to the 
players. I can only imagine what it would be like to have that yelled at you 
every game for three hours. Then, when some dumbass fan throws something at 
you, I can see why he went into the stands. If the security can't protect 
you, and they can't, you have to protect yourself. When security is a bunch 
of retired old men, what can they do. Everyone is going to jump on me for 
this, but Artest was thinking in the long run. Everyone is going to think 
twice before hurling a beer at him from now on. I saw that fan go from 
cheering, to realizing he was about to get his ass kicked. That was sweet. 
The NBA also needs to hit the organization of Detroit.
A few months ago in Italy for a soccer game, a fan threw something and it 
hit the ref, cutting his head. The game was called and the next three 
Champions League games are to be played behind closed doors. In other words 
the only people allowed in the stadium will be the players, refs, and 
statisticians. That is alot of lost money. The fans at Detroit will think 
long and hard if they lose games that way. If you want to stop the problem, 
then you have to hit people where it hurts. Sorry for the lame pun.
