jaydh - there was no generalization

just an analysis of facts presented

the same way people insert opinions on how "dumb" Eddy Curry is


there was definately a hasty generalization in what she said. not everything, but there was a comment in there.

"Generalizations" backed up by 230 years of American History including the most recent 2006 election.

Yes, but to say ALL white people are like that is a bit of a generalization? Especially since ALL white people don't feel that way.

And if folks were banned/erased for making "generalizations" on this board, who would be left.

But its a racist generalization. Not all white people are afraid of their "little white princess" being with someone of different color.

So hyperbole + irony not to be used in future debates on UltimateKnicks.com.

Got it.

we were trading comments on Araton's take on the case

rembee simply took exception to the tone and provided an illustration of a counterpoint

so if I am to understand it is fair game to call Knicks players insulting and demeaning names on this "Pure Knicks Love" site

what was the rule of thumb on posting on the times forum? did posts ever get erased there, and what would be the basis for it?

Marv - the deleted posts on the Times site were generally personal insults from posters who intentionally and repeatedly resorted to name-calling but the moderators trusted most posters to police themselves and it generally worked itself out

it was a roller-coaster

with all the dips and twists on the Imus/Isiah thread, what rembee said must have struck a raw nerve

that's not a pretty apt description for how things work here as well?
EDIT - referring to 2 posts above.

After reading the original article, I figured any post further examining the idiotic notion that what Isiah said somehow means he should be compared to Imus wasn't worth the time.

But I guess I missed something.

Marv - to the credit of Martin and Andrew they have organized a space to vent on Knicks related, and even off-topic topics.

I am not convinced "the law" to police all posters in the content of what is written is applied with an even hand however.

that may get me banned but I'm relying on the right to free speech like a mug.
