What really happened in the scissors incident?
One of the guys came in and gave us haircuts, and Everett McIver, he's a young guy. Really, he just wanted to fit in. An ego thing, I guess. He and I both. And we have an order--the veterans go first. [Irvin goes on to explain that McIver was set to get his hair cut next. Then Irvin showed up and demanded his veteran's right to go before him. McIver, egged on by another player, Erik Williams, got upset.] And I said, tell you what, if we're not going to do it like we usually do it, then nobody gets their hair cut. The barber shop dude, he can get out of the building. And, of course, he [McIver] didn't like that. Then we started fighting. I grabbed the clippers to cut him off, and he tried to grab the clippers out of my hand. He pushed me, and I pushed him back, and he punched me, and that's how it started. He hit me in the mouth, and I just lost it. I mean, my head. I lost it. I saw the scissors, grabbed the scissors and cut him. They tried to put a spin on it for me, but I cut him.
