It's called a difference of opinion.
Sorry,but the guy was flaunting his wealth in front of a lot of people and easily attracted a criminal element.

This is exactly my point
http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20080619_Morning_Report__Javon_Walkers_fatal_echo. html
A Las Vegas police spokesman said a large amount of cash and expensive jewelry were taken from Walker, who was photographed earlier in the fateful evening spraying a nightclub crowd with champagne.
Details of Walker's party night still were sketchy, but he knows the dangers of nighttime partying better than most athletes.
On Jan. 1, 2007, a still-unidentified gunman targeted a car carrying Walker and several Broncos teammates in a drive-by shooting outside a downtown Denver nightclub.
Darrent Williams, a defensive back, died in Walker's arms in their rented limousine after an apparent altercation between a handful of athletes and other partygoers.
No one has been arrested or charged in Williams' slaying. Walker and other witnesses said Broncos teammate Brandon Marshall had sprayed that crowd with champagne, which might have sparked the confrontation that led to the shooting.
If there's a lesson to be learned here, it's that all professional athletes - now so wealthy as to be in a society apart from workaday Americans - are potential targets of violent criminals.
So if they are going to party, it would be best to do it privately.

But I guess this is just a dumb article

I don't care if someone has $2 or $35 billion, they don't deserve to be beaten and robbed.

Who said he deserved it? That's not my opinion nor am I happy he got beat up.
I hope they catch the guys that did it.
Could it have been avoided? Yes. Did he behave in a manner that could bring it on? I think so. Was he clueless his behavior could lead to something bad? Hell No.
As a result, am I teary eyed and mourning that this happened to him? No.

Im pretty much with Rusty here...it sucks it happened and I wish it didn't but you are responsible for your actions and the consequences that come from them. If I were at a bar locally and some rich guy was in there flaunting and being an ass showing off his money etc etc he'd not be a popular guy and could easily be targeted to be robbed.

apparently there is a rumor out there that there were problems between Javon's crew and Floyd Mayweathers crew. This could be a very interesting story when its all said and done.
