TheOrange 0 Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Mr Niceguy getting grief! Could it possibly happen!? http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-12964668,00.html Seems so...! Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Sounds like he's trying to mimic MJ. Link to post Share on other sites
dancing_barefoot 0 Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Seems they're talking about temporarily taking his baby off him for doing that. Link to post Share on other sites
Karnidge 2 Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Perhaps his first ever media blunder, Mr Oz Nice Guy. Link to post Share on other sites
RayInJapan 0 Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 I think they're blowing it all out of porportion. If I was holding a baby in front of the croc - that would be stupid cause I know nothing about them, and would probably fall on my ass when the croc came close. But Stevo knows crocs and his wife was nearby so that if something did happen, she'd have scooped up the baby. Not like Jacko who held his baby over the balcony with no net below in case he screwed up...I wonder how many of these folks who are complaining use car seats for their children? If they're anything like here in Japan, they're putting their children in far more danger than Stevo did... Link to post Share on other sites
OnTheTin 0 Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 for sure. Pretty ridiculous to compare him to MJ, although probably not the best idea of his. Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 0 Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Was he the guy who was sent to Hong Kong recently to catch a croc? Apparently he was not successful because, according to the local press, he refused to go into the water and the croc refused to come out. SM Markie probably knows better.

r45 4 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Refused to go in the water? That doesn't sound like The Steve. Did anyone actually see what he is supposed to have done anyway? Link to post Share on other sites

sweetaz 0 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Personally i don't see anything wrong with what he did. He's a pro, and knows crocs(those ones in particular) better than anyone....The armchair sports pros should clam up. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I thought it looked like a bad idea for him to do that, but it can't be compared with MJ dangling a baby out of a window. Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 0 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 It is less dangerous? Link to post Share on other sites
DumbStick 13 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Well, I would think that a gangly crazy gimp like MJ dangling a baby out of a balcony from a 2nd/3rd (?) floor for fun is more dangerous than a great big expert crocodile trainer firmly holding a baby well out of reach of a crocodile.

Octavio Estrada 0 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Well said. He should have known better perhaps, but the 2 things are way different. Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 0 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 I thought they (the acts) were very similar both in their foolishness and the success they have re publicity. Obviously I was wrong. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Success re: publicity? With Stevie? Ah, one of those "any publicity is good publicity" believers?? I would think this kind of publicity is very unwelcome for someone like him. I thought not very similar at all and on way different levels of foolishness. Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 0 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 That explains why MJ is a 'gangly crazy gimp' but still way richer? Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 What exactly explains why....? I'm not sure richness is the point here. But anyways, I'm off somewhere else now. Link to post Share on other sites
