BMTSoulja1 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I completely agree. Perk should know better. He was suck a few days ago becuase of doctor's orders for dehydration (yea, ok) so had to cancel the basketball event for the kids. Then go to the club and do something stupid. You have to use your head better. If you ask me, he should take less trips to beaumont to stay away from bad influences. You are a roll model to a lot of these young beaumont basketball players (a lot of them talk about Perkins and want to be just like him knowing that he walked the same halls that they walk now). I just hope that positive image is not tarnished. Now, before you give me a hard time and say 'he's human, he's not perfect, yada yada', think about what I've said. You have to make better decisions not only for yourself, but who looks up to you. You don't play the game to be a roll model, but you have been branded as such. He knows this. He really dissapointed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team first Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Can't blame the man, it's the offseason and he wants to have a good time. Give me a whiskey drinker over a milk drinker any day, and u will win state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest infield fly Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Bad situation? Yes. End of the world? No. I would hate for someone to be able to see what I have done all the time of my life. I bet most people would feel the same. If he wasnt a professional player, it wouldnt be news. He needs to hold himself to a higher standard, but also be given a break when he slips. He can make it up to the kids and fix the problem. Hopefully he will be given the chance all of us would want.

BLUEDOVE3 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 K.P. and his associates put on a fantastic community event and the kids enjoyed the camp and banquet. Monies went to a worthy cause. He obviously made some bad decisions last night. Lets hope he has learned from these life events, like we all have at one time. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldollie Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Well said Bmtsouja. Kids do look up to these guys and they need to make better decisions. If he wasn't a Pro no one would know about this, but the fact is he is a Pro and knows everyone will know about it. And if you don't think that is fair don't take the millions to play in the NBA and no one will care. Did you see the 12 year old Little Leaguer hit a home run flip his bat and showboat at home before he rounded the bases on ESPN. Where do you think he got at stuff.Like Michael Wilbon always says when these guys mess up, "You are rich, if you want to party and get stupid do it in the privacy of your own home." because in society today everyone has a camera,waiting for you to mess up.

baddog Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 If he had gone out in Ok and gotten a PI, that's to be forgiven. But when it is a hometown event that he put together for the kids and he is a no-show, gets drunk and disorderly, bordering on resisting arrest enough to be pepper sprayed, he will have to re-earn my respect. Obviously this event is to show the kids how approachable the stars can be, or is this an NBA requirement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razor Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 pretty much dispicable...it's bad enough that he got drunk and had an altercation serious enough to result in his arrest, but to do so after missing a majority of the major events taking place in the camp is inexcusable...he was counted on to be a significant part of this event and he know shows most of it but miraculously recovers in time to tie one on??? sad!
