Quote:Former NBA center charged with assault
Associated Press
WEST HARTFORD, Conn. -- Former NBA center Manute Bol was charged with hitting his daughter, cutting her lip and interfering with a police officer.
Bol also was injured and needed medical treatment, West Hartford Police Capt. Lori Coppinger said.
He was taken to St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center. The hospital, citing federal privacy laws, declined to say Friday if Bol was a patient.
Bol, 43, was arrested early Wednesday, police said. He was in court Thursday and is to return Feb. 26. He also was charged with assault, making threats and disorderly conduct.
The 7-foot-7 Bol spent 11 seasons in the NBA with four teams, blocking more shots per minute than anyone in league history. He retired in 1995, averaging 4.2 rebounds and 2.6 points during his career. Bol played in college at Bridgeport and entered the NBA in 1985 with Washington.
I just wonder how far away she was when he hit her.

I don't see what the big deal is, gotta keep your kids in line sometimes. And, if his wife gets involved smack that bitch in the mouth too.

Maybe he was having a flashback from his boxing days.

header, just admit it; you opened up this thread for the sole purpose of putting that Manute weigh-in pic to some good use...
c'mon, just admit it. :tongue:
and please, you mean to tell me that the daughter was too slow to see all of that 7-foot-7 arm coming at her? She couldn't have bobbed-&-weaved (woven?) through that nonsense?
pffffft.

Fellas, that's pretty marklar of you to say that about this whole marklar. If anything, Marklar should have thrown a marklar right into her marklar and marklarred the marklar before any of this marklar hit the AP.
Stupid marklars.
