Shannon Sharpe, a Fox Sports personality and Pro Football Hall of Famer, has apologized for his role in an altercation that took place on Friday night when the Memphis Grizzlies faced the Los Angeles Lakers.
Sharpe told ESPN later on Friday night that he'd been heckling Brooks, saying that he was too little to guard LeBron James."They do all that talking and jockeying and I ain't about that jockeying. It started with Dillon Brooks. I said he was too small to guard LeBron. He said, 'F***' me. I said, 'F*** you' back. He started to come at me and I said, 'You don't want these problems.
"And then Ja came out of nowhere talking. He definitely didn't want these problems. Then the dad came and he obviously didn't want no problems. But I wanted anything they had. Don't let these fools fool you now." When you, a 54-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer, start explaining why you heckled a professional basketball player by saying"they didn't want that smoke," it's probably time for you to take a step back and examine things, no?
That appears to be just what Sharpe did. He took responsibility for what he did, admitted didn't act the way an adult man should act, and apologized for everything very specifically.Tee Morant and Shannon Sharpe just cleared the air during the third quarter intermission
