    Oh you mean like when Cleveland's owner wrote a letter to James? The Cleveland fans burning their Jerseys? Yeah it sure kept those free agents away didn't it?

    Found a link. It was Kerr, but his dad worked for a University, not the state department.

    Scroll down to the "early life" section for the story.

    Of course Canzano got the privilege of posting the letter. He has been the only one to write an article today that puts Aldridge in a favorable light.

    Batums second letter, divulging his alter ego, was more sincere. . .

    Again in some weird demented world you and I are always the ones who get frustrated the most in game threads and share it with everyone and when it comes to this we have been more level head than most lol. I agree with you as well, I'm very disappointed it came to this, but I will not bring myself to say "fuck LA go suck a giant dick" or something like that. That quote is used only for NBA refs because they do suck.
