re¡Pal¡Pist [ rȲ əlist ] (plural re¡Pal¡Pists)


noun
Definition:

1. pragmatist: somebody who only considers things as they are or appear to be, and avoids ideals and abstractions

2. adherent of realism: somebody who practices realism in the arts or believes in philosophical theories of realism

So I guess you're being realistic when you call out that the 18-46 Knicks will win every game not because you actually want them to win, but because that would screw up their lottery pick, which would be the worst case scenario? What does that have to do with being realistic?

Everyone around here wants what's best for the Knicks. Philosophies differ.
Some want the Knicks to win now.
Others want them to lose now, so to get rid of Isiah and get better picks for the long term.
You want neither.

Meanwhile you go around calling people idiots.

And I know what a realist is. Thanks for the definition.

You really have no idea what you're talking about. You came up with this entire post over me saying "Knicks will win" in every game? Really? Is it really that unnoticeable? Can you not see I am doing that on purpose? Being the superstitious man that I am, usually when I put they'll win, they lose. But I thought some people here were smarter than that to catch on.

It's good that you know what a realist is. No problem.

OOOOh. I get it. We're supposed to hear the opposite of what you say. Got it.
Thanks.

Straight up, Dolan is not a real man. I hate to say that, but its true and its definitely transparent. This the sort of personality defect that develops when one has been sheltered, overly coddled, and handed the most extreme of commodities and wealth throughout life. He has no idea on how to deal with issues that demand decisiveness and nerve. He has no concept of dealing with tough decisions --- hell he has no idea how to cope with anything resembling real life. He's one of those lames that runs in his room, talks to his toys, and hopes everything just goes away. Thats fine, but why is somebody like that in charge of one of the more important organizations in sports?

I'm not optimistic. He was scared to can Layden even tho it was clear he was in way over his head, how is he going to have the "guts" to soprano a guy of Zeke's stature?
