Agree. I’ve defended her against players complaining that she should be banned from life. I think that’s ridiculous for what she did. But I have no problem with her earning the points to qualify for major tournaments.

Pretty Blonde Lady Upset To Learn That Rules Also Apply To Her

Frankly, I actually agree with this. Giving her a WC would solely be for promotional purposes, so shouldn’t we celebrate this as keeping integrity to the game?

nah it wouldn’t

This is a bizarre thought to me. It’s not sanctimony. They’re just saying you don’t get preferential treatment. She lost all her points and now she has to start anew. That’s the punishment. It’s up to the tournament organizers whether to let her in or not. Telling someone to qualify on their own next year, we…

She’ll miss it because she’s currently ranked 211 in the world and doesn’t automatically qualify. I don’t see the problem with denying her a spot if she doesn’t have the points to qualify. If she had the points to qualify and they still denied her because of her doping past, that’s a problem. “Because she’s a star”…

I think Douglas Adams said it best on a related matter:

Yes, bae is not an acronym; however, it’s still the dumbest word to enter the English vernacular in the last fifty years.

Pretty sure they called a foul on Olynyk. The consequence of a hard moving screen.

Yes, yes I do. Instead of taking a hard screen like everybody else does, he acted like a little bitch having a hissy fit.

Its the playoffs. Don’t blame Olynyk because Oubre is soft.

Everything you said was rendered irrelevant when you called Hoosiers a bad sports movie. Two academy award nominations, AFIs fourth best sports film of all time, 88% on Rotten Tomatoes, Gene Hackman, Barbara Hershey, Dennis Hopper. You’re letting your partisanship cloud your judgement. Hoosiers is a great sports…

Taking credit for a picture he didn’t take, at a marathon he didn’t run.
That’s some A+ Stolen Valor, good sir. I’d salute you, but...well, you understand.

It would be even worse if NBA.tv refused to acknowledge the newsworthiness of Fizdale’s complaint because the league masters forbid any criticism of the officiating. We could do worse than grant NBA.tv the sincerity of doing its job.

The most hypocritical part of this is that he will likely get fined, BUT NBA TV, which is owned by the NBA, publicized this outburst and credited it for its “emotions.”

Indeed it was. It was right around that time when “news” became more “live” and one could sit and watch breaking reports pretty regularly. Within the same time frame (more or less) we had the Unabomber, OJ and the Oklahoma City Bombing.

For what it’s worth, I mildly hate myself for pointing it out.

ummm... maybe don’t watch this week’s episode

Oh hush, you! The rest of you: Ask me whatever you'd like. I'll answer AND defend you for asking in the first place.
