Tim Duncan Smoothly Gives Fan The Finger In Most Boring And Fundamentally Sound Athlete Meltdown Ever
First, let's get this out of the way: Don't whip our your camera and film athletes when you see them in person. Like the woman who sent this video to us.

Steve Blake Apologized To The Fan He Cursed Out, Possibly Because The Fan's Father Is A Big Shot
