    hey, when he says that Raptor's fan's people sucks, he's referring to you as well, you know. By your own inclusion to everyone's people. Which I guess means you included yourself in the calling of me a pinko commie. Secretly, you wanted it to get out that you too are a pinko commie?

    Crapzano,
    Will you please write an article about how many times Roy wipes his ass after his halftime poop?

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    I just saved a lot of time. I read this thread's Page 1, stood in the arena tunnel for some peace, and then skipped forward to Page 17.

    Getting some peace is more productive than forcing warlike thoughts onto us.

    In those 16 pages, did anyone say anything of substance, like, why do we have to stand at attention before sports games, but not before any other entertainment events? Is it because sports are a quasi-miltary behavior?

    Substance? That is crazy talk! I do believe we found out HCP is a Molack. That is pretty substantial.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    I don't care for Canzano, or him beating a dead horse, but I don't see how this isn't newsworthy. I could give two shits whether he is standing with his teammates during the national anthem. However, if he is not facing the flag when he goes into the tunnel, that is disrespectful. I'd equate that to sitting down during the anthem. I'll save my judgment until I actually see it for myself, but it is a very odd time to gather your thoughts. Who the fuck bothers people during the anthem anyways. Did Roy actually believe this topic would never come up? I think he would know doing this would cause some controversy, as McMillan even says it's not something he would do as a player. Can you name any other current American NBA player in the league that does something like this? At the very least it's odd.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    That's the problem. The topic HAS come up. By Canzano himself. Why didn't he make abig deal of it when everything was rosy and peachy, and instead wait until other writers in portland were talking about team chemistry issue, and then decide to essentially pile on. It's not news. He's been doing it for 2 years now.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    It already has come up. Canzano wrote about it last January.

    Well Canzano is notorious for "wagging the dog" making people hate him. The more people hate him, the more they will want to read his columns and watch and listen to his t.v. and radio shows.

    Those are big words, my friend. If you're going to use them, at least spell them right.

    Well, when you got nothing else going for you, go for spelling and grammar.

    Or, when you have nothing going for you, resort to using big words that you can't spell.

    Re: Roy Absent during National Anthem

    LOL, ask them. They like calling themselves "Asians". I think it's funny as all hell. I'm half Korean and I have many "Asian" friends that are Philippino, Korean, Chinese and Japanese. Whenever I say "Oriental", they correct me and say "You mean Asian". I usually reply, No I mean "Zipper Head" as a joke. Sometimes people do take "words" and run with them. I think it's hilarious.
