View Full Version : Chris Anstey on Foxsports News & Views


Bring back the Bullets

Chris Anstey appeared on the basketball segment last night for Foxsports News and Views, and gave an interview with Sarah Jones. The main topic was Julius Hodge and his own recovery.

I was angry and annoyed by Anstey's comments in regards to Hodge, who he criticised for acting the way he did after the Tigers win in Adelaide.

I found Anstey's comments on Hodge totally hypocritical. Anstey basically said you need to conduct yourself with class regardless of the circumstances. For those who were present at the Bullets game when beaten by the Tigers will have vivid memories of Anstey giving the finger to the crowd and making obscene gestures with his crotch, for no good reason.

Anstey came across as arrogant and sanctimonious then and usually does in the media as well. For the record Brisbane fans hardly reacted and certainly didn't throw drinks, spit or make alledged comments. Perhaps some fans at other venues could show the same restraint.

Yeah, one could say that if one wanted to be an unimaginative wanker with nothing interesting to put forward other than an impotent and fallacious tu quoque.

Yes. Funnily enough, I do feel better now.

Firstly, no capital m in my name.
Secondly, SB's no n00b and is a pretty resilient chap from what I can tell.
Thirdly, I wasn't directing it at SB in particular, but will edit for even more distance.

Thanks for playing.

Hehe, then I would have been throwing around accusations of ad hominem :-)

LOL took me about 5 reads to figure out that Mattic was having a crack at me anyway. Was just trying to lend some early support to the thread, sheesh!
