    I haven't had my coffee yet so I'll keep this brief.

    I deleted the sister screwing comment.

    All we're trying to do is promote somewhat healthy conversation and debate. Arguments are great, forums would be pretty damn boring without it them. It's when it turns personal that it becomes no fun for anyone. Arguing over what someone posts invites others to join in. Post after post of 2 guys calling each other names is boring. We want you to attack and challenge what people post.

    Don't let HCP get under your skin. He thinks it's job to give new members a bad time.

    As far as personal insults go, that only applies to members (and their families.) It's perfectly fine to call Kobe a rapist. Now if by some weird chance that Kobe suddenly joined the forum we couldn't call him a rapist anymore.

    Also, this is a forum but it is also a community. We do have get-togethers, in the past we've met GMs, coaches, practice facility tours, last year we met Schonz and Rice, and watched a game in suite, we have a yearly meet and greet with Wheels. Even if you're not interested in attending anything like that, it's a big reason why we try to keep the personal arguments out of here.

    Everyone at one time or another breaks the personal insult rule. It happens, it's not a big deal. I usually just edit or delete the insult out of the post and not say anything to anyone.

    I'm just saying. Some of us aren't as bright as others and take longer to figure it out. :)

    Sounds like my first posts to HCP.. *Looks away and hangs out in the corner* Feels like many many moons ago though...

    They seriously complained about us? To the Blazers office? Seriously?

    IF I recall, there wasn't much talk on here one way or another overall until they came on here first and asked for some game play. Is that not accurate? Then all hell broke loose for a while and we were dubbed the Zero's ,etc. All in light to me, but all be damned if they complain about us when they were the ones that came on here looking for banter?

    To top that off, I didn't even listen to them until they came on here and I found out who they were and I became a regular listener regardless of what happened. I don't know if that happened to anyone else, but to complain? HAHA.. WOW!

    Judging by the twitter knee-jerk meltdown reaction, Sheldon couldn't carry Jay Allen's jock.

    Honestly, the most surprising thing to me was that a public figure like him would even respond to a comment from a completely inconsequential nobody that wasn't even directed to or about him in the first place, and let alone so vehemently defend his response over the course of several minutes, as though anything I said mattered to anybody.

    He's obviously got a huge ego and can't let anyone get the last word or admit he's wrong.

    Yeah, but he's a crap-stirring columnist whose career is built on controversial commentary. Sheldon is supposed to be a somewhat soft-spoken self-controlled studio guy. By the same token, I'd expect something like this from Charles Barkley, but be shocked to see it from Ernie Johnson.

    I may as well have not existed, as far as Dan was concerned.

    Coach Burton, however, gave me a shout out, so there's that.
