Why do men punch walls out of frustration? I posed this question to my male followers on Twitter.com last night after news broke that the NY Knicks star was treated in the lockeroom by paramedics for punching something.
It turned out that Stoudemire required 15 stitches after punching a fire extinguisher case in the hall outside the Knicks’ locker room.
Stoudemire was clearly frustrated after his team dropped a 2nd straight game to the blazing Miami Heat in the first round of the Eastern conference playoffs last night in Miami. Stoudemire will probably be out for the first round — and maybe the rest of the playoffs.
Stoudemire saw a hand specialist on Tuesday, who determined he suffered no ligament or tendon damage, according to ESPN.
But didn’t he consider his job, his paycheck, his teammates or his fans before he hauled off and punched the case?
The best answer my male followers could give me last night was it is better to punch a wall than to punch a woman. Yes, they implied that women are the main cause of their inner aggressions.
