true cosmic, but then you have some like myself and a few others, who are here, good and bad. who only care about seeing good basketball and appreciating wins when we get them.. the problem is, those who are here rooting for loses and tanking, take cheap shots at those who like it when the knicks occasionally win and call them, us, flip floppers, accepting mediocrity, the typical BS.. I think that is where a lot of the problems start.... If you want the knicks to lose, then good, but don't piss on others who occasionally enjoy a knicks win..... And it also goes the same way. If the knicks win a few games, don't start baiting, especially when history shows that the knicks will win a few and revert back to losing...
and then a select band of individuals suddenly show back up, try to tear everyone a new *******, and claim they know all there is to know in the universe.

That's pretty insulting, isn't it?

Hey, you know me, I don't root for losing. I want the team to win but since they don't I want a change and it's amazing to me that a horrible team can string together a couple of opportunistic wins - and then a select band of individuals suddenly show back up, try to tear everyone a new *******, and claim they know all there is to know in the universe.

That's... well, ridiculous lol. Where are they now? Uhhhh.. "busy with family". lol... until the next victory of course.

LOL.... that can be frustrating. I admit.. hahaha

No Oohah you concentrate on the core of the expression "Fair Weather". You can be "Fair Weather" at anything.... "Fair Weather" parent, friend, fan, teammate, coach, poster etc etc etc. Band Wagon is more apropo to a "Jumping Off" Get your Post IQ up Oohah!

Okay, fine. You and he whose name I shall not emntion are bandwagon fans, not "fair weather fans". Does that make you feel better?

oohah


Then what are you?

You're the same fan who said "Our Team Had No Shot At A Comeback", 2 scores down with 2:00min to go in a game, while the so called Bandwagon Fans thought they could.

The mentality of not believing something positive could happen that game is the same mental state of a Bandwagon Fan who doesn't believe this regime will produce a winning culture.

And why not man up, mention the poster's name(Isles). We all know you're only here to grind axes and nothing more. Your emotional attachment towards this team is at an all-time low.

This sounds good and all but its all lies. Where were you attacked? The only thing that happened was Earl getting attacked.

[Edited by - kam77 on 01-21-2008 10:18 AM]

I've had holfresh wondering what I've had for dinner the night before for some time now... I had nix telling me to "cool it".

Outside of that? I'm speaking in general terms how certain individuals who still believe in Isiah treat those who don't. ...and...even not just here, on other MBs as well.

It's silly.
[/quote]

1) Those don't sound like "insults" especially considering your confrontational and aggressive tone in your posts.

2) "Certain individuals" if you have a problem with certain individuals on this board state it. I don't see anyone treating you badly here but if someone did it was one person, not a whole group that you feel the need to exact vengeance against. Don't turn a personal beef into a statement about lovers and haters or supporters and non-supporters. IN fact, stop lookøˆng for someone to fight.

3) If they do it on other boards, why bring your anger out on the posters here?
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.

We should have a fan off. A series of competitions Survivor style to determine who is the bestest fan. Judging by this thread it is apparent that my leadership has been sorely missed the past few weeks.
I just hope that people will like me

What's the point? We all know that I'd win.

mister earl, you are a bigger loser than Isiah.

yo, cut this crap out. Now.

How ironic, given the pulse of this thread and the claims of Earl's aggression. I think labeling Earl as a flamer is wholly disingenuous considering that there are far more flagrant offenders currently trolling this board. Ya'll just dont like his opinions and persistent optimism.

Anyway, I think I'm about at the end of my rope with Zeke, Earl, I must admit. He just hasnt done an effective job as GM.

speaking for myself i have no problem w/optimism... i admire it actually even tho i can't share in it most of the time... it's not the optimism that rubs people the wrong way w/earl.

It's definitely not the optimism that rub people with Earl. I think Nixluva is one of the most well-respected people on this site and he's as optimistic as you get.

there are some on this board that'll flame people regardless just to be annoying... i'm not talking about those characters... i'm speaking for myself & probably for more moderate line posters like nyk & a few others... i never have a problem w/islesfan or nixluva either & they've pretty much represented the opposite ends of the spectrum for a while now on these forums... it's not the optimism or the negativity that's a problem for me as long as you can present your arguments w/o getting personal... pretty much if you're gonna be condescending & annoying to others then expect the same treatment is my philosophy... no apologies necessary but don't expect anything different than what you dish out is what i'm saying.

Exactly. I agree. But Mister.Earl never dishes out anything to get worked up about. He might tweak you by asking if you are not entertained that the knicks picked up a few wins. He might remind people to the good thats happening while we were "gnashing our teeth" or bitching and moaning as it were. He may needle and nudge. But he's not here caling others losers like so many others do. Earl is like those guards at buckingham palace. You have people on this thread accusing him or nasty things, yelling in his face etc... but he does not respond back in kind. That makes him a much more respectable person than his accusers.

I don't really agree with you. Earl spends his entire time asking agenda fueled loaded questions, fails to back up his arguments and counters with little annoying sayings like "its jus a game" or "grab the donuts," and pretty much exists just to stir **** or stir people up. He's one of the worst trolls of any kind on this forum. He deserves 200% of the heat he gets. He doesn't even watch the NBA more than casually (he thought Zach Randolph was 6'9 215 before he came here).

There are a whole list of people on the other side of the argument that are the same way but go about it with a slightly more overt and less needling method, but lets not take this opportunity to list just about everyone that annoys us on this place. They probably know exactly who they are anyway.

The point is I'm just about at the end of my rope with the agenda people on both sides of the coin. Lets bring some substance rather than inflammatory, mindless crap. Arguments are meant to be nuanced. The "I hate X so everything about X sucks," has taken over this forum and its dissapointing to say the least.
