    HeyPadwan,

    I am not making a big deal out of it, I am just pointing out that Feigan and Fran were not the ones breaking any story, but were rather following the lead of this great BBS.

    If you choose to believe that they had this story and sat on it, then I don't know what to say.....their job is to sell papers, and controversy sells papers......they followed....they did not lead....no matter what an "AFTER THE FACT" Blog says.

    I don't care who said what first. The bottom line is JVG is the one who still won't shutup!

    Flaunt it if you got it girlfriend. If you're an all time great philosopher, you have to share your wisdom

    what exactly are you talking about? I think you are confused. We ALL KNOW the greek article came out first.

    I was pointing out to OMR that Feigen said VSpan was voicing "frustration very clearly" well before that. Apparently you and OMR think that's a huge scoop and an article needs to be written the moment VSpan voices frustration with PT. Apparently Fran and Feigen didn't think it was worth causing a stir by writing an article...or maybe they were interested in accompanying quotes from JVG and he refused to give any...so, the quotes waited for another day. :rolleyes:

    what is the big deal
    you guys are defending your timeline and your take on events a wee bit too much.

    take it up with Feigen and Fran....I'm just delivering the written quotes.

    Luffy1 and OMR seem to be twin brothers...

    both go on the ignore list.

    so you are calling Feigen and Fran liars?

    why...because you have to, because you are making a big deal about this timeline.

    The only way it matters is if Billy was just b****ing to the Greek papers thinking it would not get out here.

    However, I was not talking about that, just taking issue with your saying that the Chronicle sat on the story......

    And now clearly you are backing away from that.....good.

    :D

    Yes, I think they followed the story AFTER it became one on this BBS. And the reason I am saying that is because of you saying this:

    Which makes it sound like they sat on the story, which would piss off their editors to no end, as they should not be sitting on any stories which will help sell papers.

    Well what about your "silent majority" then?

    Pot calling kettle black much?

    Funny how JVG haters are allowed to express their opinions like this, while say YOFs or YOHs are not given nearly as much latitude.

    I'll consider the :D to mean you don't really believe I'm backing off something? I just don't care that much about this, especially so you were so freaking confused what I was talking to OMR about when you butted into to our discussion to apparently use a bunch of ALL CAPS to say HEYPEE is so wrong here.

    stop it!

    I don't freaking care about the timeline.

    If you need to call Fran and Feigen liars...go for it, dude!

    :D means gotcha.... ;) means I am just kidding.....

    No, I am calling you out for believing them when clearly the evidence shows that they were covering their own butts.

    And you made it a point to say that since they said that V-Span had been whining to everyone it was true...

    I am merely pointing out that their credibility on this matter is for crap......and JVG should be the bigger man here, there is no reason for him to be calling out V-Span in the media, JVG made his point earlier and he was right....but piling on a subordinate is just ridiculous.

    Yeah, but watch him dance around questions about Tmac and his defensive effort.

    JVG can certainly tap dance then....

    alright, just so we can end this...

    You are fine to call me out for believing Feigen on face here. After reading him pretty much his whole Houston career, I believe him.

    new rule. no more jokes by coaches or players...obviously fans have a hard time handling them and are too sensitive to handle it.

    Old Man Rock, as far I'm concerned, you jumped into the lunatic fringe years ago when you posted:

    That misguided train wreck of a Classic Quote (thanks, Clutch!) totally exposed you as the JVG Hater you are. The bitterness, the hatred, the... absolute finality of the quote. Frankly, I don't see how you'll ever live that one down. You might as well be Mel Gibson or Michael Richards, IMO.

    I had hoped that your hatred of the man (did he kill your dog or something?) would had mellowed with time, but honestly, it's not happening. Sure, you've occasionally played nice by throwing JVG a few crumbs of praise here and there, but your eagerness to jump all over him and the "JVG lovers" at every and any conceivable opportunity shows your true colors. Clearly, you haven't changed a bit.

    So, I've now made it my mission to post the above quote every few months in order to educate the new members of the board (and remind the older ones) as to who they're really dealing with. Consider it a GARM-cleansing act, if you will.

    Have a nice day, and oh, please give my regards to edc.

    Oooooookay. Looks like my work here is done. Thanks for killing your own credibility and doing the heavy lifting for me.

    (Why can't everything be this easy?)
