  • Jim Rome asks David Stern what we all want to know- if the NBA Draft Lottery was fixed. And David Stern's reaction to the question began a heated argument between the two, as David Stern became very rude and spoke some very ill-conceived words towards Rome. What do you guys think?

      @vigusdna3760 4 роки тому +3

      TheWhiteWhale YOU ARE WRONG IMO lol, Jim’s question does make an accusation & an Assumption as well as putting out the vibe of it being Fixed, So Sterns response was equal to it... it was equal because Rome was put in an equal situation, both questions suggested that each one is practicing an immoral action, & so just as easily as stern could have said “no, this lotto wasn’t fixed, and it should be known that we have never fixed the draft lotto”.. which is the same answer Rome could have gave, as Rome could have answered “I have never beat my wife or anyother woman for that matter” .... you are getting hung up on yeses or noes....when the original question is just as damaging as Sterns rebuttal & Rome’s was actually worse since he said a lot of people think its fixed, which he is insinuating a large number of people agree that its fixed, Stern should have followed his question to Rome with additional firepower so it would even things out... so after Rome said that’s not fair (to Sterns Question) Stern should have followed it up with “ Well a lot of people think you are still beating your wife so are you? & Cuz people think that, I feel it’s a fair question to ask you”
      Don’t get hung up on if u feel its fixed or not, I’m only talking about Stern playing fair with his rebuttal, & remember things are rarely Yes or No

      @@mattsmith2516 Yeah no that's not at all what that sequence of events was. Stern said no to the question, then immediately followed up with "shame on you for even asking it", which was a stupid thing to say, considering how many people were expressing that opinion at the time. (I remember what those Kelly Dwyer and Woj's article comments were like). Rome simply pointed that out in defense of being shamed (not in any way a prod) and then Stern did a dumb dodge by trying to pretend the question is in any way apt to the "have you stopped beating your wife" analogy. It's not at all analogous to that logical fallacy and, in fact, proved to me how desperate Stern was to villify anyone who would bring it up. That league has been corrupt for a long time. I'm not even a Rome fan, but that doesn't mean I'd trade a jackass for a wolf.

    I don't know who is aware of this but the "Do you still beat your wife" line was not a reference to Jim Rome but is actually a legal saying.
    Essentially it is used as an example of the type of question you can't ask in court because the way it is asked assumes the guilt of the person answering.
    Mitch hedberg had a similar line in a joke "Have you ever tried Sugar or PCP".
    So basically Stern was accusing Rome of asking an unfair question.

    Update on the video:
    Jim Rome murdered his wife in their residence on June 22, 2007, killed his 7-year-old son on June 23, and committed suicide on June 24. Subsequent research undertaken by the Sports Legacy Institute suggested that depression and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a condition of brain damage, from numerous concussions that Jim had sustained during his professional wrestling career were both likely contributing factors of the crimes.
