I would purchase the movie rights of your book and sign Ron Howard as the director. Tom Hanks will deliver that speech. This could work.

They are people too after all.

Who do you think you are talking to?

Why apologize? Do you think that anonymous posters really give a shit if you drive or fly?

Waahh! More hockey!

You and Clutchman83 (haha!) misunderstood the, obvious, joke the OP was making.

Based on his interviews and tweets, I find that hard to believe.

Are you pointing out how QBs do whatever they can to not throw in his area because of his skill level?

I care.

Sure you are. "Liberal...white guilt..." lol

No. Balkman played a lot his first three years. He contributed quite a bit for one of the last picks of the first round. He got a second contract in the league and he is still in the NBA.

I read it as Lew as a freshman only had three shots when he came to UCLA. Freshmen played JV. Lew's first Varsity season was when he was a sophomore, which is what the author says.

Melo is not LeBron. No one is. That comparison is pointless. Regarding assists, Melo had no turnovers and shot around 66% from the field ... and they won.

Butt hurt? did you 'brainstorm' with your 'buddies' again to come up with that?

Did your 'buddies' giggle then ask you how many rebounds he had (13), then did they ask about his turnovers (0) or his plus/minus?

No, It's mentioning those like you who whine and say "when I use that word I don't mean that, stop talking about me, waaahh!!" when the article is not talking specifically about you. So bringing up an absurd story about your "army buddy" in this context is silly. English is not supposed to be this hard considering…

He's not a victim. He repeatedly acts like an hysterical bitch. Actions have consequences.

So calling him a monkey or a nigger is fine by you. OK. But Sherman seems to say it is out of bounds. You think it's OK, many others do not. There are many others ways to chide him than resorting to code word slurs. Calling him selfish/jerk/asshole is not what is in dispute here.

Again, that is not what "current" means. You could have brought up Moses then brought up Kunta Kinte, then followed it by bringing up Geronimo. That doesn't make the latter "current."

Again, you brought up Ali (a guy who hasn't fought in decades and happened to be called a communist when he fought), and you wrote "But if you want a current one, Michael Jordan." I didn't write that. The fact that you are limiting yourself to "present day" was not brought up by the article, but by you. The author…
