    CJ is cheap and dirty? Nah.

    CJ is a ball hog who doesn't pass enough? Yes.

    As someone else posted, it's the "always" part that's so egregious on Quick's part. Was that particular play "borderline cheap and dirty"? That's debatable. But the "always" part isn't. It's not only wrong, in this context it's "borderline" character assassination. I can see why CJ was testy about it.

    :cheers:

    That's so great that you would post that. When I posted that comment, Laimbeer was the player image that was going through my mind ;)

    The way I read it grammatically, is that CJ the person has bordered on on cheap and dirty, just committed a frustration foul.

    You gotta be kidding me. I didn't think that at all. So instead of making a blanket statement, why not just say how the interview made you feel?

    Wasn't that implied? What I said was how I felt?

    No. What was implied was that the general consensus was that

    "his interview with Chris Haynes kind of painted him in a bad light"

    Which infers that most everyone thinks that.

    Yeah if you ignore what I said right before that.. I just said "I've been getting a bad vibe from him", and then stated an example as to why.
