to 24 they took the pics because its interesting to see that someone who is a star in jewish music, always on stage with the spotlight shining, playing in a basketball field (or raquetball or whatever) i completely disagree with what im going to say now but its the truth: people think that all that there is in a singers life is the stage, microphone, spotlight, and pirsomet (advertisement). they dont know that a singer is also a person! so collive took some pics of AF out of his role as a person. im myself know 100 percent that a… Read more »

ACTUALLY I THINK THIS IS VERY CUTE AND JUST ANOTHER TIME WHERE U SEE HOW A NORMAL CHASIDISHE GUY SHOULD BEHAVE – THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH PLAYING SPORTS IN THE PARK AND ESPECIALLY AVREMEL WHO IS ALWAYS IN THE SPOTLIGHT YET YOU WILL NEVER SEE HIM DOING ANYTHING WHICH COMPRIMISES US AND ON THE CONTRARY HE IS A SHINIG EXAMPLE OF A GOOD FATHER, HUSBAND AND CHASIDISHE YUNGERMAN!!

i’m agree with the comment number 3, that Someone should get him some sneakers and a T-shirt.

He's actually very good at it
April 26, 2009 9:24 am

Have you seen him play – he’s so smooth (And the game is called Racquetball)

Fried Rocks
April 26, 2009 9:23 am

Not only he is top singer, he is very good at sports. When I studied in ULY, he regularly played basketball with us and always passed the ball to me to encourage me although i know how play basketball like i know quantum physics. He is a true mentsch and although it is sad that the Jewish community, and now the Rebbe’s shchunah (!), has fallen to the lowly level of the goyishe culture of following around celebrities against their wish — for which there IS NO JUSTIFICATION IN JUDAISM (for those who posted otherwise please find me one Rov… Read more »

that’s the life of a celebrity.

people take note of their move and action.

it’s considered a privilege to see someone famous so collive has FULL permission to follow Avraham Fried around

The “poor man” you are referring to practically lives off public fame and recognition as every show person does
so give him a break and let him make a living

MAH TOVU OHULECHA YAAKOV MISHKINOSECHA YISRAEL…

what did bilam see that made him praise yisrael like this??? he saw that no windows of houses were facing eachother-everyone gave eachother privacy. your kids(and hopefully you) say these words every day in SHacharis.

WHO ARE YOU TOO BE HIPOCRITES?!?! WHAT MESSAGE ARE YOU GIVING OVER TOO YOUR CHILDREN?!?!
