To be fair he says you know meltdowns, much like I do. I know meltdowns, I've seen meltdowns, hell I've even help to cause a few. He didn't say you're having a meltdown. Personally I'd like to have a meltdown. I did just have a really good chocolate peanut butter milkshake.
Which is what Blazers did and still do, generally speaking, regarding game 7. I'm guilty of it, too. Sabonis was manhandled by Shaq! I don't deny it. Most fans that say they didn't complain are liars.
You're right that the playoffs are all that matters right now. I think we're finally on the same page here.
It would have been a first down from the one yard line. Brooks' foot struck out and hit Newton in the head. It was a blown call.
It would have made it first down, though. But the Panthers still would have to cross the goal line with a new set of downs. It could have made a difference, but as Papa said, the Niners dominated the line. So it may not have mattered.
I complained during Game 7 and on the ESPN board after it. Are you playing nice again, or are you going to try and bait me into a meltdown that won't happen?
Sly, I'm in the middle of a meltdown. Before I start calling people SlyPokerDogs, please ban me. For fear of the posters, the SlyPokerDogs of the forum, myself.
I don't remember what down it was at that point. It didn't seem like his leg struck out. I thought it just grazed Newton as he went by. Did you get the impression that he intentionally tried to kick him?
Playing nice? My posts are just honest. I can admit when I'm wrong. As for a meltdown... I was a big champion of you. I hope it doesn't happen. I thought it was made to be bigger than it was.
I complained during the series, for sure. I don't remember complaining during that game specifically. I don't know if the NBA rigs who they want to win a series, but I definitely think they try to make a good series like the Blazers/Lakers go seven games because they get more money. They also realized back then that the WCF was the true championship because the eastern conference was flat out horrible. We watched the league do virtually the same thing to Sacramento over the next couple years as well. Those playoff series did some serious damage to my opinion of the league.
Come on, Papa. It's funny you really side with RT. Any other time you'd call him out for his posts being so whiny and everyone growing so tired that he left the board for a while (to the board's success).
Hey Nate Can you sticky a thread in the main forum that we haven't earned the right to talk shit about the Lakers?
LOL. Serious question: been so busy/ill/taking care of family that I haven't followed as close the last 4-5 weeks.... Is Kobe coming back this season?
