Old School Wednesday - Get Ya Smash On
The Commission —
[image] Here it is folks. People have asked for it, and Realist has delivered for us all. Robert Parrish DESTROYS Bill Laimbeer's grill. The fun starts around the 3:57 mark. No foul was called. Let me say that one mo 'gain. NO. FOUL. WAS. CALLED. No personal foul. No technical foul. No flagrant foul. No ejection. It never happened. Can you imagine that shit popping off today? Hell no. The 80's were so rugged. Also, notice how NO ONE wanted any of Parrish. Usually someone will run over and get into a guy's face, but not a single Bad Boy wanted to square up with the Chief. Now that's gangsta.
