    Thank you as I appreciate it and I apologize if you took my post as an attack on your friend as I never thought using the words "seeking attention" as being a negative but apparently you did and for that I apologize.

    That was meant in humor. Geesh, for all the crap I have seen in this forum that was pretty mild. I will edit it out.

    I don't know or care about his character, but I question anyone's intelligence if they don't have Russel Westbrook on their list. Most punchable face in sports.

    1 million likes to you my fine fellow.

    And, if we can also include coaches and GMs, I nominate Doc Rivers and Daryl Morey. In Doc's case, it more about what comes out of the face (the constant whining) than the actual face. In Morey's case, it's the actual face, definitely the face.

    @CupWizier

    You and I go way back and I've really enjoyed talking Blazers with you over the years but do you have to hijack every single thread on here with stupid arguments. I know you aren't starting all of them but at some point can you just realize that maybe the way you post is rubbing people the wrong way and try to approach it differently? :wink:

    The lack of respect isn't mutual.

    Its completely different. One is targeting a specific location in possible hopes of expanding his career.
    The other is just an open grab at the air hoping someone, anyone will give it some teeth.

    You know this. You are smarter than this.
    A persons attempt to garner attention to something could have several different agendas.
    It was clear what cup meant when he said he had a big mouth.
    For you to even think that its all the same is dissapointing to me. I know you know things arent just black and white like that.

    He also said he had a big mouth.

    Seriously.

    This place has gone sooo down hill. How can you have healthy constructive conversations with such platent hypocritical tendancies and contadictions emitted from people with such double standards.

    Its one thing to have fun and poke and jab and even have heated debates and arguments. But when someone is on here twenty four seven, infiltrating every thread with double standards, this place starts to lose its fun.

    Ive never encountered someone who is an adult who is sooo thin skinned that they talk about crying to mods about insults that weren't insults and yet continues to consistently insult others.

    Bones made a mistake and now he and i are both liars? That's straight up slander.
    I remember the bulk of a forum getting on my ass about taking the hcp crap too far and thought i made it about his family( which was wrong. How is quoting someones posts and pointing them out on a forum and acting like you sent that post to the blazers brass taking it into real life????) and took this into real life.

    So could being called a liar.

    That one is out of line.

    That is the first thing that cup has said to or about me that has actually offended me or invoked emotion in me.
    Thats saying something. In all of my fun with hcp i never once was truly offended or pissed at him.
    But defacing my character by calling me a liar because bones misread something and thought you said it to one person when it was to another?, he still said it. He still told me to grow up.

    Calling it a lie is a stretch in the first place. Calling me a liar is a straight up lie in itsself.
    Thats character slamming.
    Thats not right. At all.

    But should i expect anything else from such a mature senior citizen???


    I know im not the most even keeled guy here and most of that is all for fun and many of you have met me in person to come to know this to be true. i have always had respect for everyone on this forum who feels as deeply about the blazers as i do. Its a common bond i felt i shared with everyone.

    And to think i used to want to help and contribute to this place so much because despite our differences, we all have the blazers in common. And that demands respect.

    It has become over the top and i am mature enough to know that if something actually invokes a negative emotion, i need to fix it and not let it continue.

    I no longer enjoy reading this bs.

    Your entire argument is based on speculation and assumptions about the guy's motivation. All I see is a simple tweet of a list of guys he'd like to punch in the face.

    To me its much simpler than that. Regardless of his motivation, was the guy seeking attention? If he was, then I don't see anything worth getting up in arms about and rushing to this guy's defense. He mouthed off on twitter and got called on it by the one, and only, guy he tagged in his tweet. He got what he deserved. End of story. End of his 15 minutes of fame.

    Its how the initial comment was phrased bnm.

    Tell me. Are these two sentences the same?:

    He has a big mouth and is seeking attention.

    He has a career changing agenda and is seeking attention.


    You are correct. Its all pure speculation.

    My point is anyone who uses speculation and hypotheticals as the bases for thier opinion has been shot down because “its not a fact”

    Yet that same someone constently makes opinionated statements as facts.

    He has a big mouth.
    He is seeking attention.

    These are opinions based off of ignorance at best.
    I understand 100% why platy would want to jump to his friends defense.

    Your defending this is disturbing to the standards ive held you to, based on your own spectacular viewpoints of past. . .

    I'm not so much defending anyone as I'm just saying the guy got what he deserved. He lipped off on twitter and got called out on it. And yes, to me publicly saying you want to punch someone in the face is being a big mouth. In the old days, before guys hid behind their keyboards and monitors, it's exactly the kind of thing that would get the speaker punched in the mouth.

    He sought attention and he got it. He's not a victim here, well other than possibly a victim of his own stupidity for tagging Turner in his tweet and then being surprised when Turner responded.

    PPP and I were discussing the post and we worked it out very cordially and then along comes bailey and bones doing what they have been doing lately and none of it pertained to them as it was between PPP and I. I figured it was done and then I come back now and look at bailey's post and it's all about me. They had no reason to butt in and start up at me, but yet they did. In my mind it was done and over with, but they continued. I can deal with bones for the most part and have discussions with him but that bailey dude is a real piece of work and I want nothing to do with him and if he never responded to or about me again, I would be completely fine with it. Lately I have very seldom responded to his posts but he seems to follow me in the forum trying to instigate.

    One thing I don't tolerate and that's when people lie about what I post and bailey has done that several times and bones did it in this thread when he claimed I made a derogatory post towards PPP which was a lie and rather than apologize to me, he just blows it off. I think I am the only one that apologized in this thread and that was to the person that it related to.

    Cup, I'm sorry but I've seen this for at least 10 years from you, probably 15-18 years, it can't just be everyone else's fault. I just hate how multiple threads have turned into stupid bickering instead of basketball discussions. Every once in awhile you have to get into with someone, I understand, but not seemingly every time you post.

    I appreciate that and apologize for my comment, but you shouldn't fabricate what I posted to someone. Fair enough? :cheers:
