    Hell, you gave up on them before that and you call someone else on giving up on them? That's funny! :)

    This is an asinine post. Beyond that, isn't it against board rules to call out a poster like this?

    Good grief.

    It's OK to question a post's content. Just as you are here (asinine post).

    While a poster is being called out, I personally don't see the harm in it. He's not being called names, one of his threads/posts is being called into question.

    oldmangrouch is a fine fellow, and his post that's being called out is being mischaracterized, IMO. At the time he posted his thread, the Blazers appeared (to him) to be all the things he wrote about them. I don't think he believes the same things now.

    There, fixed it for ya.

    Actually, he often gives up on him in the first half of a game when Greg gets in quick foul trouble and then gets all excited when Oden is "beasting" in the second half.

    I am wondering, though, if you're just trolling for responses here, because you surely knew you gave up on the Blazers first. You don't usually troll, though, so I'll assume you're being sincere and showing an incredible lack of self-awareness.

    Are you trying to deflect people's attention or something?

    Re: KingSpeed gave up on us 17 days ago

    Perhaps a better title for this thread would be: KingSpeed gave up on us 17 days ago

    Just make sure nobody on the team does tonight what a few Atlanta Falcons did (in South Beach) the night before the 1998 Superbowl.

    I guess like all actors are taught: wipe your bad performances from your mind.

    I guess Kingspeed just wiped that giving up thing after the 2nd game from his mind.
