Anyone hear about Dante giving a parylized highschool student some "ice" and then asking for it back after the media event? Apparently, Dante gave the kid 2 diamond chains worth about $75,000 and then asked for it back. The kid and father seem to be distressed about this. Dante said he would send them something real nice in the mail. What a guy!

Sorry I have no link. Go to ESPN home page and scroll down a bit and it's in a little column on the right-center portion of the page. I think the story is titled "Dante's Ice". I also heard parts of the story from a local radio morning show here in Seattle.Comment

They totally put him on the spot in front of all those people. 75 grand is an awful lot to just give away no matter what.Originally posted by jamze132Comment

Yeah, the kid straight up asked for it. Dante just reacted in front of all those cameras then later realized that he had just given the kid almost a 100 grand.Comment

He will probably hook the kid up with tons of stuff.Comment

I would not say this compares him to Moss. Still was not very smart. He should not have given them to the kid if he was gonna take them back.Comment

Should never have put them around the kid's neck if he didn't intend to let him keep it, or should have stated "Here, you can wear it for me today..." or something like that. Dumbte Culpooper strikes out with this...Comment

I guess Dante wants the handicaped kids to feel like they're pimpin' for a few seconds before he crushes there dreams. He said he would send the kid something real nice. Probably a football or jock strap. If he was smart he would send him a MR. T starter kit.Comment

I gurantee he will take care of that kid, what the hell does a handicapped kid want with 75 g's in rocks. Let Dante get him some kick ass tv, and some vip passes. thats better than a crappy necklaceI remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
