Newz Forum: BASKETBALL: Van Gundy fined $100K; targeted refs, Cuban

I'm with you on this. An interesting bit of history, though. You know why basketball players are called cagers? Because in the early days of the sport, they actually played in a cage. Because the players often fought with each other, and the fans got into it too, throwing all kinds of stuff on the court. It was a rough beginning, but they pulled out of it. I would hope that they can keep the game from getting back to it's roots in this fashion.

That is some interesting history. If I wanted some cage fighting, I would go to the street or join the UFC.
