Yeah, like the Jazz player with the yellow sports car that races his loud engine up and down 11th avenue a dozen times a day! Is that the kind of role model you think is appropriate?

Do you remember Park City?
D-Will and Whaley?
Do you remember Portland?
although the Jazz players were cleared, they were not saints either.
Please acknowledge the players for the abililties to put the ball in the basket, but let's not admire them (especially since we do not know them personally) becuase they keep their names off the blotters.

Amen!! Also when was the last time one of them showed disrespect on the court. The are very good role models on and off the court. I have met several of them out of the basketball world --class act. As for the tatoos who cares it is a personal choice that doesn't reflect on character. We are lucky to have the JAzz in our state and they represent Utah well.

You're right. I think we have some of the nicest guys in the league. As long as they're not TOO nice to the Lakers on the basketball court, that's a good thing. :-)

Since when is the quality of a person's character based on whether or not the person has tattoos? Many NBA players have tattoos, not all are street thugs.

Tatoos make a person bad?

The difference between the Jazz players and all the other thugs in the NBA is simple: Nobody on the Jazz has been caught yet.

yep, they do a lot of nice things in the community. Good ol' AK47 has done a lot of good work in SLC. GO JAZZ!
