I've noticed that Balkman is not being criticized for anything he did last night. Is it because?

He played well. Bip is just trying to stir up trouble. I'm proud of our forum members for not taking the bait.

one game is not a good enough sample to determine if he is white or not

Well, I agree that the fans didn't criticize Balkman because he's white, but you also gotto consider that the lighting may affect the look of his skin pigmentation just a little bit, and I don't think fans realize that Balkman is probably not giving his full effort to change this, and therefore, he definitely needs to be yelled at a lot more. He's really a softy in my eyes for this.

Interesting point, let's see what SAS has to say about this. I'm sure he will be ranting.

I also noticed that Jamal and Q haven't been criticized for faking their injuries today. They must have undergone that radical "turn me white" surgery I've heard so mucha bout.

Have they hired Michael Jackson as the baclk-to-white crossover assistant coach for the Knicks? He is clearly in the league of Mark Aguirre.
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?

Yes, and something Balkman has also failed to do is undergo electrolosis, b/c that would totally make him look more white. However, since he's not giving the effort, he needs to be made fun of to the media by Isiah. Maybe he and Larry Brown can team up again double up on Ro until this gets done. I think it may work.

Balkman is the GREAT WHITE HOPE. He can do no wrong in the eyes of the fanbase.

Why is that if you call Malik white its OK, but if you call Balkman white you're a hater?
Sh-t in the popcorn to go with sh-t on the court. Its a theme show like Medieval times.

Strange thread bippity.

Who said color was not an issue?

The revelation is that Balkman can play basketball better than most imagined. Why isn't that epiphany the beginning of the story?

i was there...and i take no responsibility for the crowd trying to do the wave. i blame all the foreigners. there were about 10 different languages in my section alone - they thought they were back home watching some soccer match. one guy had a whistle.

Feel free to start your own thread my friend. YOu can discuss whatever you want in your thread. In my thread we are discussing the impact of Balkman's whiteness upon his popularity. I do not need the police to tell me what topics I should cover. I thought this was a very important topic that needed to be addressed.

People like Balkman because he's white and has dreads.
They liked Brian Grant too.

Its the dreadlocks!

Renaldo is like one of those big fuzzy pokemons. (showing my age here, not exactly sure if pokemons are big and fuzzy). Or like a care bear. Renaldo Bear!
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.
