Then as an adult, I want you to read this: and tell me that you don't sound like a babbling buffoon. You call people idiots when they disagree with you, I call people idiots when they post garbage on a consistent basis. If you want further evidence, go ahead and take a look at our gem of an argument in this thread: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=195162&page=3
No intention of sarcasm at all. Im not blaming YAO because he didnt get injured intentionally. And he has alwasy given all he can to come back from injuries. I am blaming Morey for failing to find a suitable backup for YAO in all this time. We saw the impact Deke had playing for the often injured YAO. We still had an interior presense on defense and that made a huge difference for us back then. Morey needed to get us another backup C after DeKe retired. It wouldnt have made us a contender, but we would be in the top 8 right now if we had another solid 7 footer. Morey kept insisting YAO will be fine time after time. Every damn season. He refused to believe in the notion that we might need another 7 footer behind YAO. Not only to spell him but just incase YAO goes down aagin.
I didnt look at the past conversation. I got over it because I am a grown man. I was probably right then too. In fact if it involved Battier and his worth? I was right. I wont call you a buffoon now either. I probably did back then and have already proven my point right by now.
Ah yes, a grown man. I'M RIGHT!!! I'M ALWAYS RIGHT!!! YOU CAN'T PROVE ME WRONG BECAUSE I WON'T READ IT!!! Well played, you grown man you. I'm sure you proved your point. I'm so proud of you. :')
I just read it and i was right then too. It was about Battier. You see i knew it was, because I know you Battier apologists types and how you attack others. I was right back then too and we got a role player who we traded away. Then we became a better team without him. He went to Grizzlies where he will be the backup of the guy we were discussing in that thread Rudy Gay. Rudy Gay is injured right now but he got his team to a better record than ours while he wasnt injured. Battier got us to a the losing record where we cant catch up now that he is traded. So your trying to bring up the past where I was right again to call me a buffoon? Ok.
Make that 2 seasons, please. More specifically, a center with height who can rebound and block shots.
Was it about Battier? I want you to do me a favor, pwetty pwease. Put on your reading glasses and actually read what I wrote. I actually agreed with you on that trade, and I still do, because I'm actually not a Battier supporter! Gasp! What I was arguing, however, was you trying to assert your opinion as fact. I guess your reading comprehension isn't that swell, because you never got the memo. I dismantled each and every one of your arguments, even the tangent on Pluto. confused But you never got it. You never understood, and you kept posting the same "argument" that I kept destroying before I eventually saw the futility in my efforts and asked you to never reproduce, which you unfortunately admitted to already doing. I cursed the heavens and left the thread. Four months later, I'm looking in this thread and you're back at it again. This prompted my initial post: and now we seem to be heading down the same path. I'm aware you have kids already, so I can't ask you to not reproduce. But please, for the love of god, see to it that they get a good education. I beg of you.
Please don't bring my kids into this now. I am asking you nicely because I dont want to get banned for what I might ask you to do next. Thank you whoever you are. If you have a past problem with me I suggest you remember that Battier is gone. Rudy Gays team is gonna be in the playoffs. Battiers former team is almost catching his current team when they had a huge lead over us. He will permanently be Rudy Gays backup now. There is no flaw in any of my arguments. Even if I was trying to be conceded purposefully because you keep getting personal with me. I wont and I don't need to get personal with you. My point is thoroughly proven by the entire season of not just our team but two teams. For almost a whole season. I don't need to comment on it further. Its a beaten horse and subject I can move on from now.
Once again, you still don't seem to understand. I. Agree. With. You. On. Battier. I think Rudy Gay is a better player than him, and I didn't like the trade in 2006. I was never arguing against that, and no matter how many times I've blatantly made it clear you still can't grasp this very fundamental point. I'm glad you're FINALLY able to move on from this subject, if you actually mean what you say. The problem is actually the multiple flaws in your arguments and your ridiculous inability to understand very basic things like the difference between fact and opinion. It is your propensity to declare yourself to be right about everything, as if you were fulfilling some sort of vindictive agenda against people didn't agree with you. It is your lack of reading comprehension, your complete overlooking of people pointing out the glaring flaws in your argument. It's you calling other people idiots while carrying on this ridiculous tirade of ignorance and arrogance. That's my issue with you. It has nothing to do with Rudy Gay or Shane Battier, but everything to do with Clutchfans, which you seem hell-bent on transforming into an intellectual cesspool.
You wont change me cuddy. I am a older man set in his ways. I post this way for a reason. It has its results. That you dont understand doesnt always mean alot to me. Sometimes it does. Its just the end result that matters to me. Like Battier traded. Tmac traded. Yao will be gone. Team finally starting over from Tmac and Yao era like they should have already. In the end the team will be better and thats what i believe and want.
Of course! Posting like an idiot is the only way to get our team to trade its players! Management reads Clutchfans every day, just looking for fallacious arguments to build their plan around. You've gradually transitioned from annoying to pitiful. Congratulations.
I am not even commenting even further. Your baiting me into a conversation that you cant make a good point and just insult. Eventually you will catch me off guard and find some opening to exploit. Since its two pages later and you understand completely and clearly a couple pages later every word I have posted? Enough for you to respond in perfect clarity? I think I have also set you up to prove your original point wrong about how clear it is to understand me. Now going on two different conversations and a few pages each. With you responding to every post with perfect understanding. So now even your point on that I have taken since you want to be a a55 about it. I wont even give you your base argument now if you like me to take that away too. Goodnight Einstein.
"I am not even commenting even further".... followed by another paragraph of babble. Nice. Go ahead and look over our conversation. You'll notice a trend. I respond to your "point," you babble on about something completely irrelevant, which I proceed to respond to and so on. You conveniently ignore my debunking of your previous post to post something else, often ignoring crucial points. Up until a few minutes ago, you were still trying to argue about how Rudy Gay is better than Battier even though I made it abundantly clear MULTIPLE TIMES that I thought the same. Here was my "original point" : 2 pages later, it still stands strong. It's still a futile effort trying to communicate with you. I tried again, digging into each chunk of text to pry out and reply to whatever your point was. You're either a very selective reader or maybe you just have difficulty understanding basic logical progressions. Just for the heck of it, here are some tasty contradictions from this thread: followed by followed by Look, I was starting to feel bad for you. But again, your amazing combination of ignorance and arrogance makes it really hard for me to leave you alone.
You lost. Get over it. You haven't won one argument including the point where you cant understand me. Which removes your babbling about nothing argument as well slow mo.
Actually, I contend that every post you've made in this thread is babbling about nothing. You spent half your time in this thread telling people that you were right about Battier, even though no one was arguing that. You spent the other half admitting to your babble, then saying that I couldn't change you, and then saying that I was wrong about your babbling. Somewhere along the line you touted your age and called me son, then called yourself a grown man while concurrently declaring yourself the winner and adorably calling me slow mo. What exactly has been your point this whole time?
Dont reproduce. The gene pool in your family is obviously shallow because you are so slow. You admit you want the same things I want for the team and say I am wrong in the same argument. You say you agree with me to even back my arguments up. You then say you dont understand me but respond to every post allnight for two different nights. With perfect clarity. You are either semi r****ded or have schizophrenia.
What a clever attempt! You're so original, you make me all tingly inside. But once again, for the 900th time my argument has never been about what you want for the team. It's the "arguments" you post, and no I do not back them up, I point out their flaws. While I might agree with your opinion sometimes, I do not agree with your assertion of that opinion as fact, nor the methodologies you employ in an attempt to prove it.
I am sorry your feelings are hurt mam. Next time bring tissue if basketball gets to be too Heated a topic for you. I will stop being a meaner now, because I am mostly tired of looking like a brute pushing someone around. Even meany basketball conversationalists like me need sleep. We are not robots.
