    I could watch any one of his teams all day, every day.

    Thank you, Gronk, for opening my eyes.

    We know you do.

    Starting a thread to repeat a simple sentence that you've said dozens of times is selfish. Repetition and domination is a trait the O-Livers share.

    I love reading Lanny's posts....

    But I'm not sure making a thread just to troll Mr Gronk is going to go well.

    I've said dozens of times? LOL, this may be the most ironic post I've seen in years.

    I believe you're serious. Wow

    I've read his incessant posts endlessly. I don't feel I'm over exaggerating here.

    Anyhow, I didn't mean it in a harmful way. I find the situation somewhat amusing.

    However, if it's your wish, I'll delete it.

    It's fine. I just want to talk Gronk off the ledge, not give him a second one to yell at everyone from.

    I'm fine with deleting it but I don't even see that option.

    Yeah, I guess it was somewhat akin to waving a red flag at a bull in Spain.

    There is a $50 thread deletion fee. But I can give you a 10% friend discount.

    Their criticism of Gronk is that he's repetitive. But the reason he is, is that the 3 new O-Live status quoers are.

    Let this specialized personal anti-Gronk thread die, and continue the argument in the threads where it's already going strong.

    lanny is one of the nicest guys you can meet and would be the first to take the shirt off his back to help someone. You on the other hand I'll use your logic, if you dislike the Blazers so much why don't you find a team you can enjoy rather than annoy all the fans in this forum.

    I haven’t met him, but even in disagreement I’ve found Lanny to always be one of the nicest / most respectful posters I’ve seen around the internet.

    You can’t blame Blazer fans for being upset with how the last few seasons have ended though.

    False "dominance." I'm slowly learning to distinguish the different personalities of these 3 guys. They're still blurry in similarity, but I'll separate their traits eventually.

    Seriously, this forum is full of the biggest bunch of pansies... you guys can dish it out but when it gets returned you get all emotional... put me on ignore bro, I’m not posting for u to see... and Lanny should be able to fight his own battle if he starts an entire thread to egg me on

    You keep repeating that mantra, and ignoring the pre-all Star break 2/3 of each season. That way, critics can be belittled as fickle.

    ...trying to separate the individuals here...so I don't accuse one of the others' faults.

    It's a thread about Neil Olshey....all Lanny did was thank somebody who has a broken record of Olshey sucks posts for inspiring him to give Olshey a shoutout...only a real snowflake would get EMO over this thread and start name calling! There's an "ignore thread" function on the top right of the page for anyone who doesn't want to add to the Olshey appreciation thread.....only one I can remember ever posted on the forum....we have many that support Gronk's view of Olshey....glad to see some optimism...and balance.

    I’m confused by this post. They’ve been pretty sucky the first 2/3rds of the season too, but more importantly they keep ending the season like garbage... not sure why I need to talk about the 1st 2/3rds of the season more.

    when you get to 20k posts you'll receive the jlprk code book for translation....warning...it's a thick book! You know jlprk is actually Trader Bob, right?
