Now that is a concept worth pondering.

I just don't think people on this board should be attacked personally, it always looks bad to me. I think of this as just a message board to talk about sports and if you feel you have to call somebody out on here than you need to get a life.

Oh and Bball_31 it's try to spell as well as possible on THIS board...just trying to help you out buddy

But what constitutes an attack? If someone insults our intelligence by pretending to be someone he isn't -- he did, after all, originally pose as the Suns' majority owner, even before this debate about the posing street slang started -- then isn't that also an attack? Don't you feel angry when someone lies to you or otherwise misrepresents himself solely to be annoying?

Because I do.

I think when it's obviously a joke you shouldn't get pissed off at him. I don't think he ever said you were stupid, and I don't think he actually thought you would think he was Jerry.

Wait, are you telling me that wasn't JC? I'm shocked, shocked to learn that.

But the street slang posturing wasn't "obviously a joke." He had half the board rushing to his defense and charging the rest of us with racism for belittling him.

It's like the former poster on here (I remember his on-line name, but I'll keep quiet about it) who was hostile and obscene to a bunch of people, then was followed by his "alter ego" who said it was all okay because he had been abused by his father as a kid and had anger issues and we should all be sympathetic. Are we supposed to believe that? And if it turns out to have been a ruse, don't we have the right to be angry over the deception?

I think you're looking too much into it. He was looking to have a little fun, not to insult anyone. I don't think you know enough about him to know if that's the way he really talks or not, who cares either way? I don't see any reason to try to make a person feel bad on this board when they're not trying to make me feel bad.

Hey, now I'm insulted.

Hey now that's not nice either! I have been noticing that often times the older guys on this board takes things a little more seriously and seem to rip on people a little bit more. Have any of you ran across a guy called Tango?

Doesn't ring a bell.

As I said before, it's only a game. Arguing about sports is a game about a game. This is not something to get upset about.

 

[cardsunsfan]

Guess you haven't been on the Cards board and I agree

 

[Billythekid]

You can't say to somone how they should type. You guys don't even know this person, so how can you say he's trying to be someone he isn't, or a wannabe. That kinda takes us back to the start again and your abusing the guy for just speaking his mind... in his own way. He wasn't offensive. You people rip on him for how he typed. Thats f**ked up.

I personally think it adds life to this board. People take life too seriously.

GO SUNS!

Byron Scott got fired

Well, we all obviously disagree.

I think he sounds like a complete idiot, and even though some of you think Im racist, or that I'm f**ked up, or I shouldnt hurt the poor boys feelings, whatever.

He sounds like a tool, and I will continue to tell him as such.

I was planning on lifting his band today. Schutd, you and I see eye to eye on a lot of things, but I would ask that if you don't like the way he writes just don't respond. There's really no reason to.

Thanks,
Chad

Hey, I will tell you what I would like to see happen..................this thread to come to an end!!!!!!!

 

[schutd]

Deal. Lock this thing down, would you, Joe? I'm too opinionated and curious not to keep checking in here.
