    Unfortunately, these players accidently "stole" the show in China. No, they didn't join a Chinese basketball team, but they did get accused of shoplifting.

    So, how does this affect their future careers?

    This is almost exactly what happened to that poor American missionary kid over in North Korea a few years ago that did not have a happy ending when he was released earlier this year. This is different though because the dopey father has said this is "no big deal". :facepalm:

    And the saga continues - the 3 UCLA morons can't return to US with the team - still under house arrest - alleged multiple shop-liftings:

    "Ball, Riley and Hill were questioned for allegedly stealing sunglasses from a Louis Vuitton store near the team's hotel in Hangzhou earlier this week, where the team stayed before leaving for Shanghai on Tuesday. They were arrested Tuesday and released on bail early Wednesday morning, however they've been staying at a lakeside hotel since as the legal process continues to play itself out, forcing them to miss Friday night's season-opener.

    To pile on to the precarious situation, ESPN also reports that the Louis Vuitton theft isn't the only store the trio got sticky fingers.

    A source with firsthand knowledge of the investigation said the players could be in Hangzhou for "a week or two." The source noted that there is surveillance footage of the players shoplifting from three stores inside of a high-end shopping center, which houses Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Salvatore Ferragamo stores.

    Although the UCLA trio is out on bond, they are essentially being held on house arrest by Hangzhou police, which are requiring them to remain at the hotel until the legal process is over."

    In this throw away society, I am sure it will be forgotten over time. it is a shame it has come down to this.

    They were guests in another country. My God respect this. Oh well I am sorry for ranting.
