My bad - I thought it was Fuck the Heat, and as somebody had already taken away my "uck" (apparently we're a lot more prissy than we used to be) I thought it'd been folded. Next thread: Motherfuck Miami
Once we became the "Official" forum of the Blazers, @SlyPokerDog decreed that we weren't supposed to use profanity in thread titles anymore (hence the update to the Harrison F-ing Barnes thread title).
Goodwin is going to the mattresses. I think Jody needs to call Nosferatu and have Silver make a call to Goodwin. Enough is enough.
I'm enjoying this version of Cronin, rather than the "Thank you Sir, may I have another" version of him he's been playing around the league for the past year.
Yeah, but it might all just be theater. None of it matters if at the end of the day we still accept a giant shit burger from Miami.
Meeting Pat Riley in a Vegas hotel room sounds about like the dumbest fucking thing Joe could possibly do. At least if you do don’t let him be around your beverage unsupervised.
What is that supposed to mean? It was all a ruse to suck everybody in? Dame spent 11 years cultivating a heroic perception only to reveal himself at the very end? I don't buy it. Things like this don't happen in a vacuum. You aren't privy to every piece of information. People can be stubborn, selfish, and obsessive about certain ideas(God, race, gender, honor, tradition, respect, modesty) yet can be functionally logical/benevolent in most other respects. Every person has made a selfish decision or three.
Your true character is revealed in times of adversity, difficult situations, setbacks, or failures. I’m not saying Dame is a bad person, I’m saying I don’t think he was/is this loyal to the soul angel some thought he was. I think we need to remember just how much money he made by staying here. Not saying he’s in the wrong, just my opinion.
Seriously I might kind of lose respect for him if he was. He had an identity before he was drafted by Portland. He was not subsumed by this organization (which is not exactly the best-run in any case). This is not post-war Japan and he's not a salaryman. That said, fuck that guy.
