    Sure, after he retires never winning a title, and Damian is celebrating his 3rd straight title.

    I think it's bullshit to keep assuming what he thinks, says or does are some conspiracy theory or deep seated jealous tantrum. I've been reading these rants for a week and the guy wastes no time thanking ripcity..I have no more reason to believe he didn't write it than to believe every poster here has a secretary posting for them

    I do agree with you, though I too contributed. It's just like one slap in the face after another, some people are tired of turning the other cheek. Ya know?

    If LA really wrote this, there would be like fifty "um's" punctuating the text.

    Of course, he didn't write it. It has complete sentences. LOL

    I'm in favor of letting people vent. LMA got what he wanted, he's happy. If trashing LMA makes some of us fans happy I'm all for it.

    Someone should tweet this to LaMarcus.

    "Dear LaMarco Aldrich, Thanks for playing. Enjoy your door prize. You're now less popular than Darius Miles. Sincerely (insert name here)"

    Your letter makes me think of this.

    Come on now...why hate him personally? I have no vitriol for LA as a human being. I didn't like his style of play, but it's a free country and if he wants to play in San Antonio, go for it.

    I admit, it started out being the car wreck I couldn't take my eyes off of, but now it's getting a little creepy. Dude's a basketball player who went to play basketball on another team. He wrote a note and said thanks for the support. Cool. There will be more basketball players come through, and some will be good and some bad. You may like a few, and probably hate most.

    Looking forward to watching him develop. Looking forward to the entirely new group of players coming in....Kind of a big mystery. Entertaining times ahead.

    no. I think it'll take a lot of schadenfreude.

    I will say this - he made more of an effort than Wes or RoLo.

    Or they could wait for the Dog to shoot out those suggestions.
