Pro-Sports Sending Wrong Message to Young Sport's Fans?

Sporting events are supposed to be fun, but two recent brawls could be sending the wrong message to young sports fans who dream of becoming professional athletes themselves.

After the brawl between NBA players and some fans Friday night, nine NBA players were put on suspension by the league.

Kinston High school men's basketball coach Wells Gulledge says security measures are in place should an incident like this happen during a high school basketball game.

High school sporting rules say anyone found leaving the bench to get involved in a fight is to be suspended for one game.
