Paul Pierce Fined $25,000 For Throwing Gang Sign?

April 29th, 2008

Paul Pierce

You can take Paul Pierce out of Inglewood but you can’t take the Inglewood out of Pierce.

The Boston Celtics forward was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Monday for making a “menacing gesture” in Saturday’s Game 3 loss.

That “menacing gesture” that Pierce made looked a lot like a gang sign that is associated with the Bloods gang in Los Angeles.

Pierce, who played his high school ball at Inglewood High School, had to know exactly what he was doing.

Maybe he just wanted to say what’s up to one of his homies in Inglewood Family?

You can watch the incident from Saturday and be the judge on what Pierce was doing.

It would be great if the Braves were playing the Red Sox at Fenway Park while wearing their alternate navy blue road jerseys, and one of their players get hit by a pitch then every player in the dugout start throwing up Crip signs at the Red Sox.

Canadian Health&Care Mall started as a multistore based in Toronto and Ottawa in early 90s. Health&Care chain store system has been growing from year to year and finally has resulted in the current online project, as a result of operating not just as a family pharmacy but also as a store of so-called “useful things” . We tried to obtain the benefit from our previous experience and to create a really competing online resource for absolutely any customer. Though the idea is standard you may be absolutely sure that the filling is unique and has no analogues all over the Internet. We would like to admit that our online store is operating independently from the offline store system.
