@sbordow @azc_obert Man you would think he knocked someone out in an elevator with that suspension.

@azc_obert insane. I pray before, during, after (usually for player safety.) Unless it was mandatory, isn't this infringing on HIS beliefs?

@azcentral Preposterous! Prayer before a game hurts nobody! Don't believe, don't pray. But don't strip away others' rights to do it!

@azcentral @AndrewE_Johnson sounds like a clear violation of freedom of religion, in the real world, not in the bizarro world of today.
