Doss wasn't there for th...

Holy Shit Los Angeles, You Might Have The Worst Sports Fans In America
First, a fan tries to rush the court at the Staples Center. Then we read about a group of Dodgers fans stalking and beating Giants fans after last night's game, critically injuring one.

Last Night's Lakers-Mavs Game Got A Little Bit Brawl-y

A Bad Night In Newark, Redeemed By A Single Punch
NEWARK — The fights Saturday night were in Newark. Not in the actual stadium, the Prudential Center, but next door, in a big, boxy, white warehouse where the New Jersey Devils practice.
