Notice NBA ref arrested for serious DUI offense

[CupWizier]

Ronnie Garretson was arrested for a serious DUI after crashing his car into a tree and then testing out at twice the legal limit. Sounds like Garretson's days in the NBA could be over.

Why? He could get suspended but I don't think he'll be fired. Nor should he be.

Is it poor taste to refer to this as a traveling violation?

It’s obviously a foul on the tree for impeding the progress of the offensive player

 

[Chris Craig]

Blocking foul

Depends. Did he squarely hit the tree?

He certainly went to it but didn't go through it...

OK now I'm joking about this!

Yep. But he's still as terrible a person as he would be if he had hit someone. He just got lucky. There's no excuse for driving drunk.

 

[Wade Garrett]

Well its a good thing it wasn't anything terrible or against the rules like say..marijuana..
(This couldn't be green enough)

The tree was certainly set

 

[dviss1]

The tree was certainly set

It didn't have to be.... It can move to maintain it's Legal Guarding Position.

 

[dviss1]

What a terrible foul call.

 

[dviss1]

Ohhhhhhh this MF....

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Fuck Ron Garretson.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

WACK! You're gone.

 

[dviss1]

And "Whack" isn't a good thing to say to a coach or a player.

It's ref talk.

"I whacked his ass for being unsportsmanlike."

I had one of my mentors say to a kid that he was gonna "whack" him if he continued with a specific behavior.

He got in trouble. I'm like "Ray.... You literally told a kid that you were gonna HIT him..."

 

[Titan]

did he give the tree a technical foul too?

I'll tell you what... Ol' Ronnie didn't age well!

 

[UncleCliffy'sDaddy]

Wow, real surprise coming from a guy who always acted like he was officiating while drunk........

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Isn't he the one that said "wack out!" when Rasheed was looking at him? He should have been out of the league years ago.

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Ban him

Let him ref middle school jv

 

[SportsAndWhine]

I'll tell you what... Ol' Ronnie didn't age well!

He looks like Thanos with a meth problem

 

[dviss1]

Really?

We don't want him around men but he can be around kids??

Yeah... No...

 

[dviss1]

He looks like Thanos with a meth problem

OK, THAT'S THE FUNNIEST SHIT I READ ALL DAY!!!

 

[James lamphear]

That what's wrong with NBA officiating. They all take a swig from there bottles before they come out on the floor.

 

[crandc]

We can joke because fortunately no one was hurt, except maybe the tree

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

OK, THAT'S THE FUNNIEST SHIT I READ ALL DAY!!!

I just laughed out loud too. Holy shit. Fuck that guy.
