So Carmelo was tight at Garnette for saying his wife taste like Honey Nut Cheerios

[bodyhard]

And waited for him by the Celtics team bus to "talk" it out.

So whats your take on this? I say if you are playing any kind of sports, trash talking is all good, but taking that sh!t to a personal level??? Those are fighting words.

Your thoughts

Carmelo Anthony (from the New York Knicks) was mad at Kevin Garnette (from the Boston Celtics) during a basketball game because Garnette told him his wife taste like Honey Nut Cheerios.

Saying "your wife tastes like honey nut cheerios" isn't really constituted as fighting words... Now if he said she was GRRRREAT like Frosted Flakes.. then hell yeah, crack that fool in the jaw! lol.

LMFAO!!! I meant bringing in the wife, family etc etc into the trash talking. What is your take on that in sports?

Was he (Garnette) dropped on his head as a child, or is he so tall that the air is thin up there, or ??? That so f'in stupid I'd shrug it off. Maybe I'd lead with an elbow somewhere down the road to help his head trauma along... maybe.

[pharmamarketer]

I would break his jaw, by accident of course

Multi-millionaires getting pissed over playground sht...pretty stupid imo. I do like HNC though, so Anthony has that going for him.....

My daddy can beat your daddy up!

But seriously, they were going back and fourth trash talking and then Garnette brought in Carmelos wife, that sh!t went all over the internet with the quickness. I heard Carmelo called him on the phone and they spoke for like 2 hours and squashed it, but Carmelo was telling him that was low blow and that family should not be brought up He said you can trash talk all you want about my game but leave my wife out of it.

Eh, I don't know really... I guess it depends on what's deemed acceptable w/in the confines of the sport/activity etc.

Take these Comedy Central Roasts for example... it's pretty much anything goes and that is understood by all. Then there's rap battles... it's generally accepted that you can go most anywhere except for race (though it may have been different in your times). And then among certain groups of friends we had our own boundaries when it came to making fun of each other. With my close friends, we could go so far as make fun of each other's races and even girlfriends (as long as they were not present) but never moms or dads.

Uh, no...can't do it!!!

Don't know anything about this, but only know that it's the kind of BS that helped me leave caring about ANY pro-sport. (srs)

Trash talking is so much more entertaining in combat sports like MMA and boxing. You know they're going to settle it in a real fight, not something the ref will break up after 5 seconds.

[crupiea]

I am curious if she actually tasted that way.

[DubfromGA]

^^^^^ THIS








I always took a silent approach playing football. I loved to line up against loud mouths. It's funny how they tend to STFU after you level them a few times.

Roundball is a bit different, I suppose....

[flowxsss]

lol .. i am curious how he found out she tastes like honey nut........

i think he was real mean. its a cowared thing to say.

LMFAO!!! Hmmmm hmmmm good!

KG got into his head and the knicks got the L..

I'm thinkin if the knicks beat em it may have been a different story...

Yup he sure did, he lost his composure, but with that said, do you think talking sh!t about ones wife is all game?

[jkcstewart]

trash talking to the other team or player is one thing but it's a bad idea to bring in the wife or family. That is just wrong and poor sportsmanship IMHO.

[frozensparky]

Well I can tell you this, if I ended up in game 7 of the championships with him I wouldn't stop talking about his wife.


Who compares a woman to honey nut cheerios anyways, in my opinion it's just horrible trash talk. If your going to trash talk me about my wife at least be brutal about it.

LOL I feel ya on that one...

He was insinuating he ate her out.

I don't know what the 'rules' are these days. I suppose I'd leave family out of it if I was doing the talking. Of course, not the trash talking type - that said...I think one has to expect trash talk to escalate when bringing in the family.

KG is known for this kind of stuff. I don't know why people let it bother them - Maybe Melo was concerned he actually did go down on his wife. Reports are that they are separated.

I think a worse KG moment is wishing <forget player name> a happy mothers day, knowing said players mom just passed away. That one to me is pretty bad.

I gotta think as a pro athlete, there shouldn't be much that would bother you, but yeah....wives, kids, and dead mom cracks are probably gonna get you a little hot.

Also, wanted to add that it's a bit different in the Pros. A lot of these guys end up training together, playing in chairty events, attending the same events, etc....So, an amount of respect should be provided to one another.

It's not quite like H.S. ball where you didn't cross paths with one another except on the field.

[PLANETGETLOW]

I LOVE Honey Nut Cheerios!

[bodyhard]

probably not but who knows what melo was spewing all night ?


at the end of the day they're all big boys

Yeah true that, but big boys or not, you have to have respect to one another.

Ohh man, that sh!t about happy mothers day, I think I would have caught a body for that one on the real.

HONEY NUT Cheerios?!?! WTF, all my women have only tasted like Regular Cheerios!!

OP, where DO you come up with this shyt??LOL

[thnikkaman]

Mello just showed the world how Beta he is. So glad he's not a Nugget anymore.

[litljay]

The story I heard is that Mello and his wife have been on the outs as there are rumors of her cheating, which is supposedly why Mello snapped and is also why Garnett hammered him with it.

At the end of the day, these are grown ass men, playing a kids game, for big money. They will do whatever they feel they need to in order to keep the $$ rolling in.

[bodyhard]

When Melo goes to Boston I am more than sure they will be chanting honey nut cheerios and that sh!t is going to throw him off his game or ignite him and when Melo is on he is pretty much unstoppable.

[Brackneyc]

They're all Beta tools.
