I dug up this little treasure. The panther’s CEO, Yormack, has a brother who is the CEO of the Nets. This little link below shows an eerily similar incident. Interesting. Nice of the guy to bring this girl to game 7, but it does seem like these brothers are hot-headed. (I wonder if he’ll post here and call me an asshole).

That was a nice video. Glad to see he made it up to her. His original comment was dumb, but it was still a very nice (and smart PR-wise) gesture to fly her down for game 7.

Pretty sure you’re not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Huh?

You make less and less sense with everything you post.

How’s the search a 23-40 year old woman going?

No offense, but your profile pic is probably not helping (considering the fact that you cut the little kid’s head off). Makes you look like bad father material.

Uh, no one affiliated with the team threw racist or classless comments at Ward.

The only thing he did wrong was respond in kind to her own verbal attack.

Twitter is kind of like these blog sites- sjssharks66 comment just proves that you can be just as much of an anonymous ass on blog sites, too!

Pretty sure if she was pretty fat and ugly he never would have offered.. Not a bad looking lady.

Classy move to make up for a classless remark. Too bad his team didn’t get the job done on the ice against future HoF goaltender, Marty Brodeur.

Ah, the power of Twitter. Take a look at this story, all you people who had unkind things to say about what is said on the internet. Part of the reason businesses are so interested in Twitter is because they think it’s an insight to how people are really thinking/ what they’re really interested in. It’s so informal, that, to get a boost from it must mean it’s authentic. That’s why Twitter racism is so tough to see. It’s real people saying what they really think when they won’t be censored by society.

As for Yormark, as a public figure, he needs to treat Twitter like an informal news conference… Inviting that girl to the game was a stupid tax of the cost of the seat, the jersey, and the food that she ate/ drinks that she drank. Add that to the long list of losses for tax purposes…
