US National Team: Blue vs. White Game Thread

Been there, done that my man. I did all the replays for both the Greg and Przybilla injuries. They were bad.....I literally cued them up and slid my controller to the guy next to me! I super slow down ankle rolls on our broadcasts a lot, and that is bad enough. Just don't have the strength to handle that stuff!

 

I'm with HCP. I was curious to know what happened, but now I wish I could un-see that.

This is why I don't want my Blazers playing in summer tournaments. That and the fatigue factor.

I'm glad LaMarcus stayed home (again).

 

Apologies to anyone I insulted by posting the Ware video. I had no idea what the still looked like until I looked at it after reading the last few posts.

I will say that those who are offended by it should thin about stopping watch TV shows where people die, zombie shows in general, and movies where much worse things are shown.

 

This is why LA doesn't put his career on the line and play for his country. He is vindicated. On a side note, thoughts and prayers for Paul. Respect for serving your country Mr. George.

 

I do have a question, though. If you had seen it live, would you have been mad at the TV for showing it? Because I was watching the Louisville game in which Ware broke his leg, and CBS showed the bone through the skin. Maybe I should have whined about it on the internet.

 

Normally I'd kill the rookie for this, but somebody sent me a message that you are Denny's nephew, so I'm supposed to take it easy on you!

 

Pretty sure I called SlyPokerDog an asshole.

 

Again, I didn't know what the still looked like, but it's not like Kevin Ware died.

 

Thanks for answering. When you made your first post, I was wondering how you handled it.

 

lol

I nominate Sly for the Noble Peace Prize.

 

Was sleeping before work and had no idea this happened until I went to ESPN before I took off and saw it. Im really glad my first reaction was to be concerned for PG instead of to make some snarky comment because 3 years ago I would have made a joke about the incident.
this injury makes me suspect it will be the end of all NBA caliber players in international tournaments. What GM or owner would want to send their young players to play overseas when it could jeopardize that players future with the club regardless of how small the chances are of them being injured

 

It would ultimately depend on whether or not the players truly wanted to play in these tournaments. It's hard to argue with someone saying 'if we can't play for USA, we won't play for you'.

 

A very obscure reference, but Robert Edwards had his career end in the NFL Sand Pro Bowl. Why the hell were active NFL players on a beach playing football?

 

SlyPokerDog is really full of himself.

 

Now SlyPokerDog is an asshole. That was in no way a personal attack. It was a clear description of a post I made. Such as attacking the post and not the poster. Would it be better if I said PapaG's post is an asshole post? One he clearly states was an accidental post.

As for not watching zombie shows, I actually do have a photographic memory as far as pictures go. I will never forget that Ware clip just as I haven't forgotten the pictures on the Internet of that teen girl who crashed her dad's Porsche. TV isn't real so who cares?

 

Wait, calling a poster an asshole isn't a personal attack?

 

Judging by Slys post, I'd say it is...

 

I meant bodyman's post. I'm not sure I understand it.

 

But sly answered it. Ahh! I'm so confused! LOUD NOISES! :MARIS61:
