    Could it be the other way around ???

    The most vocal Lin fans on blogs consist of mainly ivy leaguers, yes, his alma maters.

    A post can can give away the inner demon of someone. Wanting to prove your point or wanting to win the argument can get out of hand. The subtle reference that you thought might be nothing, can actually reveal something about you. No desire of backing down, you try to up the ante but in doing so, gets you in the hole more and more.

    I still don't understand the desire to bring down a group of people just because they are a fan of a player. I find it silly and immature.

    The LOF's can make threads because they rep each other as a daily thing, e.g.

    LOF A: "Linsanity SHALL RETURN"
    LOF B: "REPPED!"

    Funny post, but - I don't really think that Lin's "Ivy League" friends demonstrate the same behavior as of certain members of Clutchfans who have made it a personal mission to praise Lin at the expense of everyone else.

    NOTHING wrong with this thread.

    I don't give a flying **** about Lin. He's an okay player, I'm happy that he's achieved his goals, but in no way has he contributed ENOUGH to this organisation to merit or deserve an -OF status.

    If Yao left in 09, I'd be devastated. Lin had an okay year as a Rocket, some of y'all are acting like babies.

    "Oh this thread is terrible, oh you terrible person."

    As of now, even Rafer Alston has done more for the Rockets than Jeremy Lin, so LOF are NOT Rockets fans to the degree that Kobe fans are Lakers fans.

    Your inner demons tell me you are imagining Tinman getting it in the hole. There's nothing wrong with you imagining that. Just sayin'. . . .

    Its because of threads like this and people using the term LOF the reason why some Jeremy fans like us find it hard to support the team if he's not here. You guys are incredibly xenophobic and unaccepting.

    Oh so we rocket fans just for no reason justify why he isn't as good/good at all among other players on the team. Know what is good for the team and not just player benefits. We see mediocre, we say the truth, in turn you trash other players on the team for it instead.

    1) Not all of us trash other players. Only a extreme few do that

    2) Even Jeremy fans dont think he's the greatest. I think he had a mediocore performance last season and he will get better if he is utilized correctly. I would rather have Jeremy score 5 points a game and 10 assists if it leads to the team winning, than him getting 20 points 0 assists

    3) You label us all us one group, and one race and we have this one belief that Jeremy is the top 3 PG. Hate to break it to you but even the most extreme Lin fan doesnt think he's top tier PG among CP3/Rose
