Yes, in response to someone making fun of my "grammer" if I remember
correctly.
I wasn't the one who claimed to care how to spell... the person making fun
of my "grammer" was.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it mr incognito...

This disapoints me. OK, I voted for Bush, but regardless--had I been an NBA
player in the late 90's, I don't think I'd been of that attitude regarding
Clinton. You're supposed to act respectful in these occasions, even if you
didn't vote for the person. I mean, really--you could still be polite and
say "I didn't vote for you, but it's a pleasure meeting you and thanks for
inviting us here just the same."

OK, it's good to "keep it real" and so forth, but frankly, with the right
attitude, you could say something like that and it could STILL be "keeping
it real."

It disappoints me as a Tar Heels fan--I've always loved Rasheed Wallace and
even defended his past temper outbursts and even at times pondered he might
be unfairly targeted by the officials--but this is something that
disappoints me. If he didn't vote for Bush and doesn't support his policies,
that's fine. Regardless, he doesn't have to act like an ass about it.

and you still wouldn't have addressed my original point, which was meant to
allude to your hypocricy regarding Bush's drug use. Dontcha remember when
this started when you said "I am sure George is just torn to pieces that one
of the NBA's biggest thugs
and who has contributed the drug trade will not shake his hand."

and then there's the whole "thug" remark.

As a Carolina fan, were you also disappointed in Jordan? He
thought so little of the whole White House photo op that he
wanted to blow it off altogether when Bush I was in office.
(I think the thousands of angry sports radio callers forced
him to go, eventually.)

Neither did Bush, get over--your man lost, TWICE. He lost.

I know that in this day & age of protest this & protest that, and
saying that you didn't lose that it was sorry officiating or the
like--good example was the San Antonio Spurs protesting the Laker's
last-second win last second via Derek Fisher's miracle--but Bush won,
Kerry lost, Gore lost, and all the bitching & moaning about so-called
"voter disenfranchisment" that never existed changes nothing.

Too much Jesse Jackson, too little common sense--and too little getting
over the reality that you lost, fair & square. Period.

Ask Bush if his daddy ever tells him about the time he shot JFK.

I don't think they had cheerleaders back then.
