This article will make your eyes bleed. Warning: reading this article may cause extreme disbelief. Proceed to click and read at your own risk http://hoopshabit.com/2015/08/10/jeremy-lin-qa-setting-the-record-straight-with-nathan-gottlieb/ No idea who any of these people are but it's this Nation Gottlieb dude sounds like a extreme LOF.
Interview with a Lin fan. There is a class of organism called an extremophile. They can survive in extreme environments under high pressure and temperature. I suddenly realize that the concept can be extended to human behaviour as well. Perhaps we should gaze in awe rather than pillory the unfortunate fellow.
Guys I think we might have found the president of the LOF club. He prays everyday to his Jeremy Lin altar, before watching re-runs of "Linsanity" while crying into his Jeremy Lin Knicks jersey. He probably has Lin's entire college and NBA stats tattooed on his palms, and has a Fathead of Lin in his bathroom with matching shower curtains, bedsheets, and pillow-tops. He's also a connoisseur of Jeremy Lin used items and hair particles on Ebay and has a online petition called "Start Linsanity!!!".
Forgive me. I clicked on the link. I cannot unsee what I just read. This is horrible... it's as if the future predicted by Charles Barkley Shut Up and Jam Gaiden came to being in real life.
So lets make a thread about him. Lin is long gone. What about Dragic, he has some great articles about his life.
The dude posted that highly produced video of lin working out on the beach. Does any great player need a video of them working out? Are lin fans going to that beach and stuff the sand in jars so they can sniff to get high?
here's one..... http://miami.cbslocal.com/2015/07/10/goran-dragic-talks-dragon-nickname-miami-life-on-joe-rose-show/
I like Lin, but there is no denying that he has more than his fair share of zealots. I mean, I've been wrong about how good dozens of players would be. At some point, you just accept it. At least now I can be pleasantly surprised instead of thinking yet another random person is holding him back for nefarious reasons.
This is why, even though you are a Lin fan, I respect you. You keep it real. I dont laugh at Lin fans. I laugh at Lin lunatics. In fact, I will call them Linatics from now on. Yes. Poor krxnsnoopy. It's somewhat of a regular scheduled programming as far he is concerned. He takes some time off of his "busy" schedule to save Jeremy Lin's honor. Ends up getting his ass handed to him. He then goes into tantrum/meltdown mode and cries himself to sleep. Rinse....and....repeat. LOL @ this Linatic Nathan. Comparing Jeremy Lin to Nate "Tiny" Archibald and Tony Parker. Especially hilarious because we have had several Lin defenders on this site trying to save Lin's honor by referring to that nutjob's tweet. Yeah! Good job guys!!! That appeal to authority should seal the deal!
My dear god. That interview and the ensuing comments agreeing with everything that nut job said is saddening. Same ole story. Everyone else's fault.
I'd love to see Mr. Nathan Gottlieb battles Tinman one on one in a thread. No one can post in that thread except these the two of them. Who will win?
