but it's different when you start talking about figures who many many kids look up to as heros. people who are pro athletes are thought to show the very prime example of sportsmanship in an idealistic world, so for someone to jump off a court into the stands to beat up some smuck with a beer cup isn't really following that. i'm not saying i wouldn't relatiate if i someone throw a beer cup at me on the job, but i wouldn't be in front of 15 million people while doing it. it's different with these guys.

i have noticed that refs now tend to make superstar calls

if a guy like darko went to drive they might not call a little bump

but if someone like kobe drove to the rim they will get the call 90% of the time
