Bippity, I really am beginning to think you are a mental case.
You are simply making things up as you usually do. Here is how it went:
I wrote:
Pharezone, I think you know the deal. To a bunch of these guys, LB's 23 is better than any number of victories Isiah especially or any other coach can out up, even if the win total doubled next year. They are convinced that LB represents the "long view" when everything in his vaunted "track record" says different. They neglect to see that his requests to change the team are anti-rebuilding and anti-youth. They are "win now" requests to the nth degree.
oohah
To which you replied:
Basically what it comes down to is ooh ahh has little to add to any topic accept calling someone a LB lover.
I had never called anyone a Lover of anything, and you simply neglected to answer any point in my post because you had no answer. Instead you just put words in my mouth.
Then I replied:
Basically you have no true points but only rhetoric. Basically you will change your position pretty soon. Basically you spent the first half of the season defending every specific suspect thing LB did, then when that was undefendable, you changed your point into "support the coach" and "sticking to a plan".
Keep babbling and you might make a cogent point one day, just like the proverbial monkeys who will eventually write Shakespeare...LB lover!
quote: I will not be one of the one's rooting against Isiah if he is hired. I will pray for him as hard as I did LB. I will demand that the organization not hire him if they plan on firing him. We need to give him 100% support just like I demand for Chaney and Lenny and LB. It's all the same. Until we back our coach and say that we are going to give him a chance to REBUILD in his vision we are wasting our time being part of the NBA. There is no other way. One day fans will realize this. That it's not a good thing to fire your coach's every year no matter who the name is. It's not a good thing to root against our coach's. None of this is good. I want no part of it whether the coach's name is LB, Lenny, Herb or Isiah. We are shooting ourselves in the foot by not committing and giving 100% to a coach.
Translation:
"Blah Blah blah..rhetoric on toast!"
quote: People keep searching for reasons why we aren't seeing progress and it's right in front of your face. It's not LB that would have turned us around. He is not a savior and would not have saved this franchise. No single person can. What would save this franchise is saying that we have a plan, hiring a coach that fits that plan, and then sticking with the coach to see that plan through.
Translation
"Yakkity yak, don't worry, I'll say the opposite thing next week and insist I've been saying it all along"
oohah
And that was the first time Larry Lover (Actually LB) was ever typed by me, in answer to your stupidity and putting words in my mouth. That was two days ago in response to your nonsense.
The reason you have to put words in my mouth and take personal shots at me is because you have no opinions at all. You just spew rhetoric. You ran out of actual points way back in December.

How's about this? When you grow a pair of balls big enough to have an actual opinion and stick with it instead of waiting to see how things go and saying: "I called it" when you actually said the exact opposite, when you start talking about specifics instead of generalisms that aren't applicable, then you can start talking about "depth of opinion".
It's guys like you who make the movie portrayal of thick-neck knuckle-headed coaches who yell catch-phrases instead of making thoughtful observations ring so true.
Do me a favor Mr Gym Teacher, go roll out some balls and step off.
oohah
