This video dates back to December of last year, but since we're all probably a little behind on our Asian basketball tournaments, let's look at the YouTube description:
A Kuwaiti basketball player hits the referee in the Asian Cup game after losing to Saudi [Arabia] in a game that should have been easy for them.
This just pisses me off. Why are we hearing about basketball fights in the Middle East, but nothing about baseball fights or hockey fights? It's racist, I'm telling you. This is just another case of the media trying to reinforce the idea that Arabs are prone to violence. And that's simply not true.

Carmelo Anthony peed his pants a little bit watching that video.
Delmon Young says the ref had it coming.
yes, islam, the religion of peace.
Prone to violence and choking in Big Games.
that was great. I wonder if anyone got hit by the punted basketball
His other option was firing into the air and running away.
I think the gal in the burka threw a beer. That started it.
That brawl needed the Iron Sheik to come in and throw a few fireballs at the refs.
Im ashamed and disgusted. I cant believe you, Matt. A veteran and you are perpetuating negative stereotypes.
Arabs dont play ice hockey, silly boy.
Now I know why that jackass plays basketball… and not Soccer or fights in the UFC.
They're gonna be pissed if that ref gets knighted.
Goddamn Kuwait, I had money on them shits.
Arabs dont play ice hockey, silly boy.
Oh they play it, just not very well.

Kermit Washington believes that was bush league.
where was that guy back in when Iraq invaded Kuwait???
Referee=fair game
Republican Guard= piss pants and call the USA
Still not as bad a reaction to refereeing as Hawk Harrelson yesterday during the Sox-Cubs game. I thought he was going to kill himself. Someone needs to tell Hawk the Sox are the worst team in baseball.
William Ligue approves.
Now I know what game tapes these guys watch when viewing NBA films (Pistons vs. Pacers)
Chuck Person thinks his punting technique needs a little work.
wow, them Arabs know how to do brawl, unlike their American chicken shit counterparts(at least not counting Ron Artest and Psycho Stephen Jackson)
the iron sheik cameo made my day
