No. I’m too old and have been the way I am too long to give it much thought.

Macho bullshit is dumb, shitty. If someone venerates macho bullshit, even if they often say and do things that are funny/thought provoking/good they are also going to say and do a whole lot of dumb, shitty things.

same thing make you laugh make you cry

You have the argumentative style of an unsuccessful high school debater. You like to quibble—because you’re lazy and quibbling is easy. But you don’t quibble to clarify or elucidate, you only do it because it makes you feel clever. Except you also demonstrate neither mastery of the specific facts at hand (as evidenced…

Don’t hit people if you have any other option. Even if someone called you a name. Even if they blew cigarette smoke in your face. Even if they fucking slapped you first, if you have the option to get away without putting yourself in danger of really being hurt, get the fuck away. It doesn’t even matter if you’re…

Look, it’s simpler than that. If you can find a way out of a situation without resorting to harmful violence yourself, you do that. Period. It has nothing to do with how yer mama done raised you or wot it’s like out there in god’s fucking country or whatever. If violence is avoidable, fucking avoid it.

You should probably never write this much again.

Hi there, buddy. Say, reading your other comments in this thread, a thought occurs: How do you feel about the Van Gundys’ tendencies to speak out about cultural and social issues surrounding the league? Are you a fan of their “takes” or of the way they present themselves in public? Just curious!

Chicago used to have a guy who was pretty good at basketball, didn’t they? Like a couple of decades ago? I remember I used to think about him all the time, until Lebron came into the league. Haven’t thought about that dude in a minute now though...you’re right about the skyline. Good restaurants at half the prices of…

A lot of guys who have been around the game, when they talk about this kid, they’ll invoke the memories of Wojo and some of what he brought to those great Duke teams of that era.

Ya know, Reddick probably wins a footrace with Allen. Just one end of the court to the other, he’s a whole lot faster. But Allen has an intuition for the geometry of the game, the angles and the contours. You can only get that by spending hour after hour doing things the right way. Repetition, you know? Practice,…

A lot of people already saying this kid is like a coach on the floor.

Heady play. Just a smart, heady play. Great basketball IQ on this kid. Really terrific.

Sorry, Petchesky, but all unpopular opinions must be stated in the form of a huffily strutting puffin.

Well I know which one of those two men I want with me when the bullets are flying and I have to retake the Cheesecake Factory at the high end shopping mall in the name of America—and it ain’t the grumpy old guy who couldn’t even fly a plane without getting shot down. It’s the grumpy old guy who plays harmonica and…

sorry, but i like players who DON’T get hurt, just like i prefer soldiers who DON’T get captured
