It is shocking when issues arise out of nowhere and eventually resort to violence causing harm to innocent people around. We have witnessed numerous fights between NBA players, fans, and players or just fans alone standing for themselves in a heated argument while they support their favorite teams. But where does the line end? Is it rightful of someone to sucker punch another person because of a late call?

An incident took place between two head coaches of rival teams. Juwan Howard had taken the extra step turning a simple late timeout into a major brawl. The altercation ended up involving young players of the NCAA consequently earning them suspensions along with their coaches. The situation was definitely unnecessary as something as small as this should never be the reason to hurt another human being.

As the Michigan University team was down by 15-points, Greg Gard for some reason felt that it was the right time to call for a timeout with just 15 seconds left to conclude the game. While both teams went ahead to shake each other’s hands, both head coaches had a short exchange of words which ultimately triggered Juwan Howard to take a physical shot at the face of his rival coach.

The Big Ten conference was quick in giving all the parties involved a penalty for violating the rules of the league that specified the upholding of peace. Howard was suspended for the rest of the regular ahead of March Madness inclusive of a fine of $40,000. Greg Gard and Joe Krabbenhoft who provoked the situation were both fined $10,000 for going against conduct. The players who got involved all receive a one-game suspension.

As we all know, the world was hit by a devastating announcement saying that president Vladimir Putin had decided to wage war on Ukraine. Bill Bur slammed people who put down Howards after his dirty move using the conflict between Ukraine and Russia as an example to settle discussions on Howard’s actions.

“The little fella there was running his f***king yap who called a c**ty timeout, didn’t substitute or anything just to be a Big Ten c***, was about to get the slap that he needed. Everyone would say yes, ‘a grown man resorting to violence! How could he resort to violence?’ As they sit there and they talk about us doing sh*t to Russia who are gonna do some sh*t to Ukrainians, but that’s all fine because it’s war.”

It was fair enough that Burr came to coach Howard’s side to defend his actions as it was almost harmless. But that could be the exact reason why such an incident was widely covered by sports shows as the act of war is already widely condemned by people.
