Random little nugget last night from the Associated Press on beloved former Knick, and friend to the LoHud Knicks Blog, Charles Oakley.
It seems the Oakman was involved in some sort of altercation with security of the MGM in Las Vegas back in May of 2010, and allegedly suffered serious injuries to his neck, back, head and wrist, “all or some of which may be permanent and disabling,” per the lawsuit.
I haven’t yet had a chance to track down Oak’s side of the story here, and pending litigation usually tends to induce the parties the clam up, but I have a hard time believing that any normal group of security personnel could cause harm to the historically invincible power forward.
Maybe if there were like 20 or more more guards, and they were armed with batons — or nunchucks — then maybe, just maybe, they might have been able to save their own lives, but injure Oakley?
No way, man. There’s just no way.

I heard it was just one guard, a guard by the name of Chuck Norris. The altercation didn’t last long. It was just two hits. The first hit was a roundhouse to the Oak Tree’s chest. The second hit was when Chuck Norris invented a new color on the roulette wheel called Chuck Norris. He forced Oak Tree to bet all of his famous car washes on Chuck Norris and when they hit, the Oak Tree doubled his franchise. They are now dear friends except for the gaping hole that still exists in Oak Trees chest due to roundhouse inflicted wounds.
