    Oh irony.......the Blazer threads are as contentious and annoying as the political threads in the OT section. Some people take a sports team waaayyy too seriously. I mean, constantly going back and reliving past draft choices, past trades, blah, blah, blah. What does that actually accomplish? What kind of chubby does the "what if" game create? We live in the now. It makes me wonder if some posters here have spouses, kids, jobs and stuff that really matters. I'd love to block the constant, grinding"tankers" on here, or the posters who know everything there is to know about basketball and are eager to tell us, but the basketball threads would become even more unreadable than they are. If any single one of us actually knew what we were talking about, we'd be sitting at Joe Cronin's right hand.

    I get that some folks get annoyed at Stren's takes. I get annoyed by the self appointed experts on this board. BFD. Like they know better than everyone else. I make a choice to come here and so does everyone else. Stren keeps it real. He balances out the pie in the sky dreamers and Pollyanna's. Leave him alone. He provides a necessary service.......along with the occasional reach around.......

    Post of the year.

    I'm pretty sure every poster on the board was called out in this post. And nobody knows who was called out for what.

    Well done.
