Police pulled over the 6'9", 250 pound Walker after he was spotted driving a black Mercedes with the lights off. Cops say they smelled "a strong odor of alcohol" and his eyes looked "bloodshot." Walker refused a breathalyzer test.

'Toine played several seasons with the Boston Celtics and was a member of the Miami Heat when they won the NBA title in 2006. He has not played a game this season.

4. antoine was always such a nice guy when he played in boston. such a shame though that so many children look up to athletes and aspire to be like them, and these athletes are setting such bad examples. well most of them anyway.

7. He got a call from Sir Suck Off Charles and was heading as fast as he could to that street corner in Scottsdale, where according to Barkley the best BJ in America is. Dang bro, why you not call Plaxico too, he could have brought the piece case one of youse wanted to get shot.

Hope Obama changes the image for what a Black Man should be when he grows up, is famous, has money, and is married. So far the ones ya'll paraded afore us aint cutting it. In other words, enough with the Black super sports star being the cultures role model---it hasnt helped. Maybe Obamas image will for the next generation because this one only wants, as Oprah says, sneakers and ipods----walker, plaxico,and barkely show they also want bling and bj's.

As Juan Williams wrote "ENOUGH"
