The Dec. 30 arrest of Tigers catcher Gerald Laird and his younger brother, Brandon, stemmed from an incident at a Celtics-Suns game in Phoenix, Ariz. after Laird’s grandfather allegedly groped the wife of Celtics guard Eddie House, according to a police report released Tuesday. House's wife Charlsie accused Laird's 70-year-old grandfather of touching her inappropriately while watching the game from a lounge at the U.S. Airways Center. A bartender told police House claimed she was being harassed prior to the fight, The Arizona Republic reports. Officers who responded to the fight said Brandon, 22, shouted derogatory remarks toward House and other women at the lounge before taking a swing at one of the women, according to the report. The Yankees' prospect was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor disorderly conduct. Phoenix police said the 30-year-old Tigers catcher was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor assault for allegedly striking a security guard in the head from behind during the brawl.

I heard about this story awhile back but the details were really sketchy so I held off writing about it until my inclination that G-Money's Grandpa started it all by groping Eddie House's wife was confirmed.
I really have no problems with this story except for the fact that if G-Money hit that security guard with the same .220 average that he hit the ball with than he had no shot at doing any actual damage and shouldve stayed the fuck out of it. We all know you dont get into a fight without having at least a .333 average and a third of your shots are gonna land. I do like the fact that 70 year old Grandpa Laird is still fighting off Alzheimer's enough to know that grabbing some tit is where its at. I wish my Grandpa had balls like that.
But lets be real, Brandon Laird is on a whole new level of Laird. He isnt into gropping like Grandpa, striking out like Gerald or just watching the basketball game like a normal person. Dude just wants to yell racial slurs and swing at ladies. Sounds like the Yankees got a real winner in that kid.
