Post#1 » by AleksandarN » Wed May 1, 2024 8:28 pm

Man what’s with MPJ’s brothers. Brother number three arrested for dui. Didn’t he learn from his older brother. Smh

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/40064144/jevon-porter-brother-michael-porter-jr-arrested-suspicion-dwi

Jevon Porter, a former Pepperdine standout and the younger brother of Denver Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr., was arrested Friday night in Missouri on suspicion of DWI, Missouri State Sgt. Kyle Green confirmed to ESPN.

Porter, 20, was released on summons and not booked into jail in Boone County, where the incident occurred, according to Green. The news of Porter's arrest was first reported by Power Mizzou.

If I had a brother going to jail for 7 years for dui causing death the last thing I would do is drive under the influence. I wouldn’t anyway but still. What was he thinking

It's pretty clear Mike's parents raised a bunch of idiots. At least Mike is seemingly a harmless one.

You know you ****d up as parents when 3 of your kids do stupid stuff. two kids busted for DUI, one kid illegally gambling.

Michael Porter I am sure hopefully is fine but imagine if he did not have god given athletic ability and make millions as a basketball player. Who knows where he would be. Heck Jontay did make millions as a basketball player, still did something idiotic.

One thing is clear, their parents didn't teach their children how to make correct decisions in life. This is not surprising because I am pretty sure there were articles about the unorthodox ways that their parents raised the family, not to mention they have highly questionable beliefs on things like vaccines, diets, etc.

They were home schooled and come from a religious family.

Makes sense, too sheltered from life and then it all hits them at once. It was like the baptist homeschooled neighbor girl from my childhood. Nun like innocence for 17 years, and then in her first week of leaving home for college she got knocked up immediately and came home with a baby 9 months later.

I'll be the first one to say I didn't know a lot about how some of the laws work, but "suspicion of DWI" is a little sketchy. This could be the officer being a jerk, or the judge giving him a break. From my understanding, you usually only get "released on summons" if you have a clean history.

Let's hope for MPJ's sake one of them doesn't turn out like Dele's jealous POS brother "Cain".

He almost certainly refused a breathalyzer and has access to money for an attorney/bail so of course he's out. Pretty standard. If you see a report where he loses his DL for a year it basically confirms it since that's generally an automatic when you refuse the breathalyzer.

So without the test, it's still suspicion technically.

Dummies are making it real easy for MPJ to have nothing to do with them. I mean where's the terrible business ideas, the passive aggressive wish for someone to "give them a break" or the attempts to become an agent?

This is what happens when you home school kids. They don't learn the basics and they end up completely off the rails.

Seems reasonable to take this one story and use it to attack all home-schooled kids and their parents. Literally none of them learn anything and are all off the rails. :roll:

I actually looked it up - pretty crazy there are 5 boys and 3 girls. 8 kids in total. All of them play/played basketball. They are all really tall - Michael & Jevon are both 6-11, Jontay is 6-10, Isaak is 6-7, Coban is 6-5. Sisters Cierra & Jayda are 6-4 and Bri is 6-3.

They are spoiled kids who thinks they are kings and can do whatever they want. Since they were grew up wealthy, they thought they are more privilege than others.

grew up wealthy? MPJ stated growing up they rationed food. He also played basketball with hand me down shoes. Doesn't sound like spoiled kids. Which makes sense when you have 8 children. They weren't wealthy for at least some of his up bringing.

Do you know that they grew up wealthy or are you just assuming they did?
