PJ Washington at it again

Never berate someone on one observation. Thanks for standing up and making it right.
A couple of months ago I made an infamous post I immediately regretted. I met the team at the RJ Corman train tour in Lexington, caught PJ Washington on an obvious bad day and after seeing him be less than kind to a few fans, posted about it. I threw him under the bus based on one observation.
I’m here to say: boy was I wrong. I apologize to PJ, and to my BBN brethren.
PJ could have been tired. He could have been in pain over his surgery. What an arrogant ass I was. I’m sorry to all. That’s on me.
So here PJ is. Here he is above. Here he is at it again: representing BBN well washing the feet of young children in the Bahamas. Doing the right thing. Good work PJ and all the Cats. Go Cats.

Now post a pic of yourself cleaning PJ's feet and all is forgiven!! Seriously, that was a nice post and we all have bad days.
I live in New Orleans - AD (Brow) is very generous and giving in our community!
He is. AD is one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. Again, product of Cal’s teaching.
Glad he ended up down there with the Pelicans. Very selfless coach and good teammates.
There were stories about Crum back in the day........he was supposedly as moral as Pitino......
OP - don’t beat yourself up. Could be PJ was less than cordial and your critism got back to him and HE changed for the better. I’m sure UK b-ball monitors this forum and reports negative fan reaction from personal interactions. They have to vigilant nowadays
I actually was thinking this also. The OP is kind of selling out here. PJ was probably an ahole the particular day the OP first posted about. My guess is Cal lit into him, and PJ quickly changed his attitude.
No big deal, but no reason for the OP to try and appease the jock sniffing, players are perfect crowd.
Give up your man card Pike.
I’ll win my wag...uh....in 3-2..
I’m like you, I love having fun.You must have "Morg" over for a party more often... i sure do wish I could buy a few...
“Foot Washing” was a sign of being a servitude. When one person washed another’s feet it showed compassion and willingness to serve. Religion didn’t create it but adopted it because of what it stands for. I’ve washed feet and can tell you it’s a humbling experience.
I’m glad you get something out of it, I can think of a hundred other ways to learn compassion, servitude, humbleness, etc..I will not touch a foot not belonged by me, my significant other, or my future children

Really? And the kids all decided to thank everyone in the crowd personally to? These are 18 year old young kids, they don't just come up with this by pulling it out of their a$$.
As part of the goodwill programs Cal runs he involves his players to teach them life lessons. Yes, he was requested to wash the feet.

Not everyone is as simple minded as you. These kids come from great backgrounds and although it’s a team bonding gesture, that does mean they wouldn’t do it on their own.
Same. My Podophobia is real. Great gesture by the team, but I can't touch a foot.
CATS wash kids feet. CARDS pay for "Shower Dances" from Strippers. It's all about the same, right? 
One cannot make one wash feet. Sorry it cannot be mandated....
(Maybe they are trusting their coach that he is "learning" them something.)
Great post OP
I’m sure PJ was a bit of a jerk when you saw him...could’ve been having a bad day or was over tired. We all have days like that. Good of you to recognize that and not base your opinion solely on one interaction.
As to this particular service: there is nothing more humbling than washing another’s feet. But it wasn’t even really about the action. It was about creating a servants heart. It was about humbling ones self and learning to recognize that no matter how bad you might have it, someone else is worse off.

When and what was UK busted for exactly? New cars ... jobs at car dealerships? I don't remember that?
