NJTank Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Eddie Johnson a former NBA All-Star and current Suns announcer was reported to have been arrested for Sexual Assault the other day.http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2544143However it now turns out it was another former NBA Player named Eddie Johnson who had a brief career mainly with the Hawks that was charged, as the other Eddie Johnson now fights to clear his name after the initial reports.http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2545984This is pathetic how can a reporter let this happen without confirming who was arrested and charged, now Eddie Johnson who appraently is a class act has to have this stiugm hanging over hsi head becuase of the intial reports which as usual got more attention then the correction. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ Sands Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 The Chicago Tribune printed an editor's note apologizing to the innocent Eddie Johnson. They didn't make it clear which one the wire service article was about.I'd change my name if I were the innocent one. Ed Johnson sounds fine.
