I just want to hear she told him she wasn't interested and it continued, or he told her to blow or go...it's not in this article.
I am not arguing whether she was golddigging or whether she was actually harrassed, i wouldn't know, and I am not quite sure how people could be so convicted of their argument without being one of the involved.
I am merely stating that a person who has been asked out repeatedly despite rejected the pursuers advances is in fact, being harrassed.

And I would agree with that. 100%.

When I worked at the Olive Garden in SA in the early 90's I had a female boss that was always hitting on me...I fucked her. Lots of times. Was one of my favorite jobs and I think she was my favorite boss ever. I was sad when the time came to leave that job.

I'm having trouble with this statement.
Everybody in the league knows it's easy to stop Marbury from going inside.
Re: Isiah Thomas Is a Sick Bastard
Some bullshit happens every day, no doubt about it. But before you make up your mind, check the Duke Lacrosse scandal. Bitch claimed "rape" yet was VIDEOTAPED leaving the party and having her door held by a couple gentleman partiers. That story went to hell, too.
Re: Isiah Thomas Is a Sick Bastard
Isiah could have been a jerk...I would believe that instantly, if she would just list an example of him actually being a jerk...like she did with the cheerleader.
But this woman also could have a ridiculous definion of sexual harassment and have made herself a pain in the butt by making allegations over a single incident(involding her and Thomas) and trying to stir up stuff with that cheerleader(without the cheerleader being involved) and wanting Marbury to be discliplined for calling her some names(I wonder if she wanted him suspended)...
I mean I just haven't heard her say Thomas did anything that fits the definion of being sexually harassed....she's got no problem being explicit about what the cheerleader was asked to do...how come her example that IMO, the entire cases hinges on, seems so tame?
There just needs to be a better example of the harassment of her, by Thomas. Thomas has proven himself to be a dumbass before so it shouldn't be very hard for her to come up with an example if he was actually doing it.
Re: Isiah Thomas Is a Sick Bastard
My knee jerk reaction to cases like this is to call bullshit til further notice. We will see where this leads...

The Cheerleader thing is to show past conduct towards females.
If she believes she was fired or dismissed because she rejected Isiah...well maybe she has a point, although I don't see anything he said to her that proves he harassed her. And it's not to hard to say someone is doing a shitty job for the Knicks given their current state.
Yeah, maybe she does have a point.
This stuff is bs golddigging and sour grapes, if all he did was say he was attracted to her and try to kiss her, before being rebuffed...if that's sexual harassment, she just needs to not work around men...
Apparently you need about a week refresher course on sexual harrassment in the workplace.
Oh...and if she was raising hell because Isiah hit on her and Marbury calling her names...I can see why they fired her.
And I can see why you might be prime candidate for a lawsuit for treating someone the same
If Stephon Marbury talking shit constitutes a lawsuit...heaven help him and the Knicks when the refs and his opponents find this out.
Sounds like a woman working in a field she shouldn't be working in. I see absolutely nothing that happened to her that constitutes sexual harassment as I define the term. Marbury is at best a co-worker...if he talks shit to some guy in the bar are the Knicks accountable for that as well?
Luckily for women, you don't get to define the term.
Gold digger...just the fact that she is trying to get some money based on the things she says happened to her is probably illustrative of why she was fired. I hope she doesn't win. And I hope she finds a job where there are no men and no one will ever be attracted to her and no coworker will ever call her names.
Probably ilustative? And as for the rest of that statement? Well, I guess it just goes to show you need to grow up.
