    Keep in mind I have kind of an OCD "point out funny typos" thing. Unfortunately for most, my "funny typo" bar is set so low it even a world-class limbo dancer would hurt himself trying to get under it.

    Please tell me you at least chuckled a little bit when you discovered the meaning of TL DR...

    But I spelled prerogative correctly, so it cancels it out.

    Not to be confused with pejorative, which is why this thread continues. lol

    If I had balls, my one desire for this thread would be for people to get off of them and stay on topic.

    Telling people to get off your balls will only have the opposite effect.

    Uhm, spoiler alert?!?!?! Shit Nate! Come on guy.

    The people most on my proverbial balls also want this thread to go away. Thanks for pooping on my ruse. :( Back to the drawing board.

    So, Ben is a lazy, no-talent hack, and...

    Casey actually writes a take on the stuff he quotes. There is meat to his writing regardless of whether or not it is pleasing to your palate. Casey puts his own spin on the work he cites. Casey doesn't constantly bad mouth Blazer players in his writing, and then go into the locker room and ask those same players to provide content for him. Casey doesn't delete comment when people disagree. And as disinterested as I may be with basketball shoes, at least you can't call Casey unoriginal. Is this really the best example to grant Golliver reprieve from his screaming inadequacies as a writer of sport?

    Curious . . . you avoid swearing because of what it conveys but you use mask swearing. Does masked swearing convey something different to you than non masked swearing?

    I want to believe you don't take yourself too seriously, but your writing says otherwise (even you acknowledge that). So why not write more indicative to your personality? Serious question . . .

    It is. Thx.

    I also made a grammatical error in the next sentence. I was looking for an Editor, but I think this disqualifies you. :(
