Chris Rock told a tasteless joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair condition at the Oscar’s on Sunday night. However, Will Smith’s reaction was beyond over the top. He stormed the stage and slapped Rock, then returned to his seat and cursed at him in full view of a massive international audience.
Since then, just about everybody has offered an opinion on the slap heard ’round the world. Rock is not completely blameless but from where we’re sitting the only opinions that are really worth hearing are the ones condemning Smith for his actions. Former Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin has never been wrong about anything. Here’s what No. 89 had to say about it on Twitter.
No. Will was wrong and there is no excuse. And if he escapes accountability then what?

Will Smith has since apologized but there’s speculation that he may be forced to give up the Best Actor award he won for his performance in King Richard just minutes after the incident took place.
