    I remember back in the day when we were trying to figure out what the hell to talk about during the lockout. If you think the foriegn influx was bad, you shoud have seen this place back then. Dark times indeed.

    Damn, this was so terrible (or tehrrbow as Barkley would say) I couldn't bite my tongue any longer. If tinman annoys you so much, just put him on your ingore list. If you think this thread is breaking a rule, report it, but for the love of crap, please don't pollute the board with ridiculous nonsense like that. You've heard of bringing a knife to a gun fight, well you brought a rubber duckie with that post.

    For the record, I don't like G.W. Bush or really tinman for that matter, this is all about principle.

    Indeed and I apologize, but if someone's gonna play irrational, guess I gotta follow his game.

    SamCassell is right. This site its original form was here way before 1999. I think I joined back in 1998, but I'm pretty sure this place has been up a few years before that. And yes, the home page used to be the place to go first for breaking news.

    he's referring to the fact your joke
    1. isn't funny
    2. is crap
    3. you keeping bumping the thread created by someone who thread's you supposedly don't like reading

    this is posted by someone who doesn't like my threads too.
    i don't care what you think about me, but at least come strong, that was beyond weak.

    my game is way stronger than that dude. i suspect you have a bit more creativity than that.

    i called you Luther Head, you could have called me Bobby Jackson or something. but you chose to pull some classless and meaningless post. you can call me George Bush, Obama or Jintao, but it still makes no sense like giving Stevie Wonder 50 plasma screens.

    I use to read ClutchCity.net too, I thought back then the front page was more important.

    I've been lurking on this site since it started (around 1996 I think) ... but carry on.

    By the way I didn't call you bobby jackson. As I've said before earlier I have given you respect except for the fact that you were over arrogant. Saying you will "recognize" me really pissed me off.

    try reading slower..
    I said you COULD HAVE CALLED ME BOBBY JACKSON. (makes more sense than that GW reference)

    you need to brush up on your urban dictionary
    "RECOGNIZE" is a good term

    like Game RECOGNIZE Game

    Saying you will "recognize" somebody is basically saying "I will notice you", or "I will acknowledge you".

    I wouldn't be so pissed if you've would've just replied instead of going through all that 1999ers are original and awesome thing. I respect 1999ers as I've said many times before, but you gotta respect those who aren't as well.
