Personally, I dont give a rats ass about TJ. I am sure he is a great little kid, but I couldnt care less about how he feels. IMO I dont care if the Kidd's use TJ as a prop, but it is an explantion of why he gets made fun of. If you put someone or something in the spotlight, their faults will be examined/made fun of. Just a fact.

Since this is a basketball board, look at it this way.....Collage seniors slip in the draft because they have been critiqued and seen so much, that all their flaws show through. Does that mean the NBA wants the players to leave after 1 year, while no one has cared to look at the bad parts of their game? No of course not, but that doesnt change the fact that they were in the spotlight a lot, and people found flaws.

You know that a person is a hypocrit when they complain about something, when they do it themselves (more or less). Therefor, complaining about a person being made fun of, then making fun of them does indeed make you a hypocrit.


First, my comments were about a 34 year old, right to his face. He could defend himself, and he did that. In BIM's opinion, it was nice to see that people could make fun of a toddler on a national stage. A toddler is a four year old, which makes BIM 30 years older.

You did not make any comments to anyone's face. You posted them on a national stage in essence (at least viewable by the nation). TJ is a minor, so it is Jason and Joumana's responsibility to be held accountable for their son. By law. So what TJ is 4 years old, his parents could make a public comment to defend their son on the same stage that was used to critisize him. (Just as BIM used the same stage you did)


The fact of the matter is, it's sad to make fun of a four year of a four year old, period.

So you are 34 years old right? Because I mean it is just plain sad to make fun of a 34 year old.


Unless you are 34 years old yourself.

Who's 34 years old? Do you even read people's posts before responding? Evidently not, or not very well at least. :rolleyes:

And your insulting comments were not to my face. You typed your dribble onto an online message board. Are you so demented that you believe that is the same as saying something directly to one's face? For that matter, had Chaplin not quoted your comments, I would not even know what you said...

Had Joumana been so public with her parenting prior to getting beat down by her husband, I would be inclined to agree with you. But she wasnt. TJ became Joumana's and Jason's accessory right after the domestic violence incident.

You know a bunch of people have made comments like this, saying that Jason and Jourmana use TJ as a prop. So what are you guys saying? If you're saying that you don't think they should do that, obviously you'd think it was in bad taste for people to make fun of TJ"s head on a national stage. If you say it's wrong to use TJ as a prop, how does making fun of that prop whose parents take advantage of reinforce your arguments at all?...

If you are going to address something I have said, at least read my posts on this subject. The very first thing I said was that I thought that making fun of TJ is in bad taste. I just so happen to believe that 4 year old as a PR machine is worse.
