Hall of Famer
it was an obvious, blatantly dirty play. that being said, now that the powers that be have seen fit to not give the negro a suitable punishment, Budinger must look to take care of himself.
as a white man who plays a LOT of basketball with negroes, i can assure you that they only respect one language: strength. they will push, and push, and instigate, and escalate physical play/altercations until the white player(s) show that they aren't going to take it. this doesn't necessarily mean a fight is required, but intense, instant, and aggressive physical/vocal retribution toward the black instigator(s) is required if you don't want that kind of crap to continue. of course, you must be prepared to go all the way if necessary.
once the white player(s) show that they aren't intimidated by the blacks, the blacks themselves become intimidated. they can't handle a white man standing up to them, you see.
i'm sure Budinger knows this. i look for one of two scenarios to follow from this incident: 1) other blacks will look to rough him up to see how he handles it, or 2) Budinger will aggressively respond and put a stop to it himself.
