Lets not kid ourselves anymore.... Cho and company saw this coming

Because none of us actually has an answer about what the front office did or did not know.

 

Which question? Who has a worse bench than the Blazers? I didn't think he was serious. If so, if you factor Joel back into the mix, then half the teams on this list:

Come on, Ed, be real. I couldn't care less whether MIXUM posts or not, but at least be honest enough to admit that he's a shit kicker.

 

The topic of how bad the Blazers' bench is certainly is a legitimate topic. The way he presents it is, in my estimation, inflammatory and his intent is to rile people up rather than discuss. This thread, while relatively mild compared to some, is written in his usual style. It's the pattern over all of MIXUM's threads that is of concern. You, and apparently the other mods, seem to have similar opinions on his posting here, but it doesn't mean that they're the only valid ones. As I said, I don't give a rip whether you let him continue to post or not, but it would seem from the comments that I read here on a nearly daily basis that many others disagree.

I have better things to do on New Years Eve than sit and type about MIXUM, and I hope you do as well. Happy New Year.

 

I don't know which theory is true, the "OMG what a disgrace" theory or the "bumblefuck" theory. I do know that management should have seen this coming and been prepared. But knowing how they function, I'm not sure they deserve the praise for which Mixum credits them. If they were living within the mental helmet of the "Blazers have a golden future" religion of rapture, they may well have been totally ignorant of the deterioration in Roy's knees.

 

The bench absolutely does suck, no question. The purpose/intent of the OP's post is completely ignored and that is what is wrong.

 

Lame attempt to ignore all past behavior from MIXUM and then act as if it is the fault of the other 99.9% of posters.

There is no problem with this thread, IN ISOLATION.

Do you want to argue that he hasn't started the same topic over, and over and over, just to elicit a response? Good luck with that one.

 

If this message board had a decent ignore fuction, I'd have half of you non-existant and enjoy this place a hell of a lot more.

 

Not asking for a mind reader. You are being asked consider the entire context of what has been brought forth.

To ignore all that has occurred and firmly place one's head in the sand leaves one's ass high in the air.

 

You do it with too much energy. I always do it the lazy way and lie flat.

 

He asked which team in the NBA has a worse bench than ours.

 

Hahahaha. Obviously not.

 

4:32 pm constitutes New Year's Eve to you?

 

I answered that. I told him I was too lazy to go looking it up or think about it.

 

They are continually pointed out when they happen. Perhaps you should pay attention to your users.

They aren't legitimate... thus why so many people have pointed them out as illegitimate.

Yes you do, since you you made a claim that he doesn't try to elicit a response from other posters, or troll. He does, and many agree.

Providing links and opinions doesn't have anything to do with not trolling. Strange tangent to run off on.

You're a psychiatrist now? It doesn't matter if it seems insane that somebody would do something for so long. He trolls, regardless of the length of time he's been doing it. Again, strange tangent to run off on, as if a poster trolls for long enough it become OK.

There hasn't been any new data since the last several posts he started about how bad our bench is. Nothing has changed, it is the same players, they haven't changed their skills.

If he wants to start another thread about how bad our bench is after we make some trades, etc, I could understand that.
