More on Mutombo
This is the most infuriating thing ever. I know I am only crying foul after Lebron James got hit, but look at this list and tell me that they shouldn’t make this a-hole wear elbow pads or something. This is a menace with a record. Anyone have any ideas what you do with a guy like this who has a well recorded history of hurting people around him? These are all elbow shots by the way.
