Is this a joke? Your "focus?" You're not exposing anything. If anything, you ought to learn how to agree to disagree. You continually mention "rep," and it seems like Tinman's status on here greatly bothers you. Perhaps, if you posted with more substance, you might gain a greater reputation. More than anything, this site is about discussing the Rockets and other teams (NBA Dish) at an intelligent level, not focusing on "exposing" a poster that you disagree with. And, the whole "Tinsane" thing you've got going on is more annoying than creative. Really. Didn't Anderson Cooper describe something like this as grade-school logic the other night (Trump)? I don't care where the insults originated, but you definitely have done your part ,and then some, to muddy up everything with comments that have absolutely nothing to do with basketball. I'm out, but next time, leave the generalizations of the Rockets fan base to yourself. We certainly don't need to be "rebuilt." If anything, those of us who are still fans, are more loyal than ever.
I think the basic gist of what colt45nyc was saying is that tinman is not representative of Rockets fans. He's actually differentiating the behavior of tinman and others like him, to the rest of the 99.9% of Rockets fans who are not like them. Rockets fans, like you said, are some of the most intelligent, passionate fans in the NBA, and in all sports. Tinman and others like him, don't engage in discussing the Rockets or other NBA teams on an intelligent level. Rockets fans do not make generalizations of other team fans or player fans, and lump them all together because they happen to root for a team or player that they do not like. Rockets fans can agree to disagree. Rockets fans do not make generalizations about Christians, mocking prayers. Because Rockets fans are more respectful than that, even if they do not hold the same religious beliefs. Rockets fans do not make generalizations of particular ethnicities, such as mocking their culture with constant Chinese food jokes. Because that has nothing to do with basketball and its simply trolling. When real Rockets fans can keep posters of hateful, divisive, and unrelated to basketball comments accountable, and return to "intelligent basketball discussion", this place will be a better place. It's clear tinman and others like him are not representative of the majority of Rockets fans. Its the same usual five or so posters who consistently post hateful, divisive, and negative comments, while thousands of others on this site do not. So I agree with you Codman, cold45nyc shouldn't make false negative generalizations of Rockets fans, and real Rockets fans do not make generalizations either.
Are you sure about that? Why would you be a fan then? Were Rockets centers really popular among New Jersey Nets fans ten years ago? Maybe Yao was taking distance learning courses from Cornell or something while he lived in Shanghai. What a mystery!
I'm a 99er. Unoriginal and insecure fans like krxsnoopy can't handle people who have orignal personality and wit. Which defines what real rockets fans who love clutch city are. He might be a rocket fan in name but if you experienced or have knowledge of clutch city you expect more. You have higher standards for basketball. Clutch city united a diverse city. Now we have the d angelo williams and jeremy lin generation who are soft and care too much about themselves. Codman and i have more in common with each other while krnxsnoopy and colt45nyc are similar. Codman is on point tip. Krxsnoopy is buggin out.
He doesn't understand Clutch's rep system. 1. he doesn't know anything about the Rockets 2. he doesn't know what Hakeem means
thousands on this site know i'm right. thousands on this site know that LOF are scum. thousands on this site know that the 99ers are the orignals. Even a nation of billions won't hold us back 99ers without a pause
Agreed. Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhi-Zhi, tho skilled, did not have the heart Yao had. Never watched Mengke Bateer much, so didn't have any real impression of him, but that in itself says much about him.
You got it right bro!! There are people like tinsatan that just don`t "Get it". They live in an alternative reality thinking 99ers and hakeem level has any reps in Rockets Nation.
And he's significantly better than jeremy lin. Who's also asian. Yet they are not in the same class. See yao is a man, he never b****ed with bible tweets when things go astray
That story doesn't make sense. We know the yof well. He doesn't have the characteristics of the yof. The yof left and migrated to yaomingmania
Tinsatan must repent for his sins and hate on Lin's God. God want's his believers to pray and praise him. Since you called Lin a b**** for praying to God, you are in reality calling God the same too. God loves all, even you the lowest and most evil of all.
Tinman's narrow-minded athiest world, where praying and talking about it is b****ing. Even if you don't understand, you should be more respectful of others' religions and how they practice it.
Respectful? I think people should have been more respectful with your personal photos, but the way colt45nyc is using God in this debate is truly disrespectful, it is straight up anti-Christian.
lots of people pray and use bible verses. but not that many do that because they didn't get what they want when they are millionaire nba players. did God need to hear that he's not happy that the Rockets put #7 on a Carmelo Anthony poster? Nah bro.
