Should posters who keep referring to Neal's alleged rape be banned from Spurs Talk?

[Death In June]

I don't think we need to protect the feelings of millionaires that don't read this site. The choo choo moniker is all in good fun anyway. Don't be such a vagina.

Very classy thread OP

[MaNuMaNiAc]

You all know it's not happening

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Yeah and while we're at it lets just edit the whole site.

[nkdlunch]

while we're at it why don't we force everyone to obtain health insurance

[mexicanjunior]

I like the nickname "Choo Choo"...no reason to ban anyone over something like that...

Starting a thread in which you cry for the banishment of other posters for writing harmless comments that you don't like is worthy of a ban.

[mavsfan1000]

Only the Kobe's rape should be allowed. Superstar treatment.

[Arc]

just like the rape victim and the grizzlies, you guys are gonna have to neal with it.

[Bender]

but all the reporters always bring it up, no matter what the article is about.

I never raped my ex, and I am still paying for it. Can we also overturn my child support? Just saying...

[ohmwrecker]

I would rather see it just fade away because Gary Neal will continue to hit big shots in big games. The more he steps up, the less people will bring it up.

I don't think people should be banned for it, but I do think its one of the dumbest ways to root for a player you like. You use a nickname that reminds him of what is likely the worst time in his life?

Its just pretty damn stupid. But its about what I expect out of most of Spurstalk.

[MannyIsGod]

To be clear I'm talking about Spurs fans who use the choo choo nick name. I could give two s about any one else just trying to troll or be an asshole.

[nkdlunch]

this is an online forum. I don't think Neal is stupid enough to read this garbage we type. or if he does he is not stupid enough to take it personally.

Now if someone on the street sees Neal and says "you really raped last night" then Neal has my permission to run a train on that mother er.

Yep. And while I appreciate the OP's concern, every thread about it makes it worse.

if we should be concerned on a players feelings it should be Bonner. IMO if he reads half the stuff about him here and takes it personally he'd jump onto oncoming traffic

[nkdlunch]

"I hope Bonner dies in a car crash" or "I hope Bonner's injury ends his career"

^ that definitely is 1000x worse than saying choo choo

[MannyIsGod]

I don't care which is worse. Its just a stupid way to root for a player you allegedly like. I can't see how anyone can even disagree with that.

you refer to yourself as God how ing stupid is that?

[Fabbs]

I've had enough!

The man was acquitted and exonnerated by a jury when he was just another black athlete accused of rape that a typical jury would have sent to prison without a qualm.

Personally I'm getting sick of these guys on Spurs Talk who keep referring to Neal with this ugly smear talk. One guy even has taken the username Gary Neal and has the permanent comment "I raped, period."

Neal seems like a good, hard-working kid who has paid more for the allegations --loss of scholarship at La Salle before verdict, walk on at Towson, undrafted by NBA, worked in Europe to prove himself, etc.--than seems warranted.

Spurs Fans at Spurs Talk don't need their comments. I think Kori should take action and just ban these creeps.

What do you think?

Along with Mul roll.
Or would that leave the site moderatorless?

Really? You can't defend that so this is the best you can come up with? This is why you get made fun of all over the site. Props.
