You Laker fans create a "me against other teams' fans" mentality, with exception of the few like alcs and Kairu. Your irrelevancies in so many areas irate me more than me being hurt about my team being attacked (not criticized btw, I know the difference)... - You keep assuming I have nude Billups posters on my wall and masturbate every day looking at him... sure he's great for us, but doesn't mean he's my fave player. You discredit him so much, what he did for the Nuggets team with your legendary numbers, but I dare you put a poll on your beloved Laker sites (try TLN) asking this simple question "who would you have on your favorite team, if he were to be acquired for nothing, Billups or AI?" Create it now, post your fantastic numbers that AI > Billups (what have you got to lose? statistically you proved you're right, and heck you're an admin on that site...), and we'll see the poll. - Your taking a small sample and blame it on Billups is just getting to a ridiculous point. It's sad because it's coming from you, who are not known for baiting, who I assume have never been banned on any forum trolling... you're an example of quality posts and out of all forums you're posting ridiculous stuff on your site... and out of all people... it's you. You said you're joking but that post was a direct reply to my post and there's no "jk" or smiley faces... now I know you're pretty heated about me flaming AI, and I know there's upset feeling that lingers from Nuggets series... sorry if I can't read the playful nature of someone who is upset towards me. I mean, Melo having scuffles with Dahntay Jones and it's Billups' fault? That's a new heights for you. Go make another poll, since you like to take a small sample and generalize it into big picture, asking them if their favorite team would be exposed to a powerful influence of a star player, would they prefer Billups' harmless dressing up influence or AI's legendary party-til-morning influence? - Again, you wanna have this "me and other Laker fans vs. other teams' fans" mentality... OTR's motto "we're all family" is BS... because it should be "we Laker fans are all family". You're gonna keep posting and interacting with other teams' fans out of being defensive, sometimes too defensive (why Kobe is/ was hated imo), cautious... no matter it is, you put a fence between you and other posters who you assume are attacking the Lakers... and that's why the endless Laker soap opera never ends because as proven by your post above, when noone brings the Lakers, you have to bring them up out of the bottled up feeling of being victimised. Like I said, if you wanna keep bringing this up (Balkman not taking shower for weeks and making all Nuggets pass out at halftime and it's Billups' fault), I'll take that not only as an offense as a poster but also disrespect to me as a person. That's insulting my intelligence, that's looking at me as if I was 7-12 yrs old... Again, you can keep it up, you know our interaction at this point, it's not pretty to make jokes. You wanna lose that I am a Laker victim mentality and embrace other teams' fans genuinely? You wanna make me respect you again as a poster, owner, etc? If you don't bother, maybe you want me to leave, and I will do just it, let me know.
