SCC - Correct Again

Back on 29 July, we wrote this about the recent home invasions of well known NBA players:

• Seems there's at least one crew around targeting high wealth and high spending sports figures who are more likely to have large amounts of cash lying around. Anyone wonder if it could have anything to do with.., oh let's just say, certain gang affiliations? Yeah, we don't wonder either.

We started taking hits in the comments section from the recently banned "coldtype" about us making overly broad statements. "coldtype" made completely facetious arguments and tried to put words we never typed into his fantasy rebuttal. Of course, it never saw the light of day and led directly to his recent departure from our board.

Tonight, on the WGN News and the Tribune:

• The robberies of two NBA players in the Chicago area are linked, authorities said this afternoon as they announced charges against suspected gang members in both crimes.
• Byrne said the suspects are all gang members from the West Side. Allison has a burglary conviction, and Hill has several convictions for robbery, Byrne said.

We'd open this post to apologies from "coldtype," but he's not around any more. So we'll just point out that we were right, he was wrong, and an open post in the meantime.
