Douglass!!

Damn! You sound like my Mom!!!

Honestly, I don't know how this last argument even started. It seemed to stem from a pretty harmless sarcastic joke by Cool, a little snarky sarcasm by Cam and then it really spiraled out of control. Some felt the need to unnecessarily pile on, but others kept it pretty neutral & peace keeping which was good to see. The latter being the difference between this forum and other random forums.

We definitely need to not take thing so personally or jump to conclusions. When you see yourself start slinging mud, maybe it's time to go for a walk and take a breather. We've all been there and I think most of us get snarky from time to time. We have to remember we're all fans of the same team here and we all have valid opinions. Hope to see you posting again soon Cam.

I do too, grey. We haven't lost many regular posters here. One that we did lose was markbu, who always seemed to be on the wrong side of every argument. Two seasons ago, when we had a prolific scoring first five and a terrible bench, you could always count on markbu to come up with a bizarre stat trying to demonstrate why our starters were actually responsible for our losses! Always wrong, but kind of creative in a strange way.

Last I heard, markbu was down in South Carolina arguing why it was a good idea to fly the confederate flag over the state capitol.

With Towns in the fold I am looking forward to see an opening day lineup of Rubio, Lavine or Shabazz, Wiggins, KG, and Towns. Martin and Pek can anchor the bench. (if healthy)
