    Why the harshness? You immediately assume that your "interesting title" would have been a bad thing and then take a shot at me? Ouch.

    If you need any help with the lack of self-esteem issues, let me know.

    :confused:

    I've never said I was interesting.

    Love your cliche "You must have self esteem issues" message board insult. It's SO 2002.


    Remember when I started a twitter account? So do I.

    Are you asking if I'm speculating about him speculating? Or that I'm giving an opinion on his speculation. I don't know what you're asking.

    Um. What?

    You can definitely trust whomever you care to, but in this case he was wrong about the timing of the signings, and you seem to be treating his speculation as established fact when he doesn't offer anything to back it up.

    It's all speculation. Even if Lawrence Miller calls 95.5 today and says "Matthews was our #1 target all along." A quote we all hear with our own ears (Something you required earlier) it still doesn't make it so.

    I'm more willing to listen to someone who has nothing to gain backed by their previous record.

    If Ben was off this time than so be it. NEXT TIME I'd take that into consideration.

    The first 2 names we all heard/read/etc were Farmar and Mason. Farmar himself had quotes as did Mason.

    Edit: P.S. 2nd most views of any thread on the first page. #1 was started yesterday morning. This one late last night.

    When are you going to start paying me?

    I read Matthews 15 minutes after free agency started. That was about the first bit of information coming out that evening on who the Blazers were contacting.

    I agree with that - except that guys like Farmar and Ridnour are not exactly exciting options.

    I am holding out hope that this signing means Rudy/Bayless/Williams will be traded for a decent PG. Of course, I also think Mathews will be a more than adequate back-up at SG, so what do I know! :devilwink:
