You don't need to post this picture in every thread.

You're evidently not reading every thread.
You posted the same picture twice in two threads in the same forum a couple of minutes apart with your first two posts. Seems like a logical suggestion.
Translation: You shouldn't be playing hooky to post on the Interweb.
Hey Junior, buy a dictionary. Analogy: Similarity of a thing in SOME respects that are OTHERWISE DISSIMILAR with a comparison based on such similarity.
So, Spurs are to OJ, as Suns are to Nicole?
Thats.... a disturbing analogy, no matter how you define it.
Or he could just google it like you did
Like Suns fans are pussies, except there are no dissimilarities.
bruce bowen is a dirty player. this doesn't strike me as anything new. he should have been kicked out of the league a long time ago.
Sorry I bought mine. Microsoft Bookshelf 2000.Or he could just google it like you did
Haha, That's funny, but that's not the analogy.So, Spurs are to OJ, as Suns are to Nicole?
Thats.... a disturbing analogy, no matter how you define it.
Correct me where I'm wrong, but you basically are comparing OJ Simpson to the SA Spurs; ie, you are saying the Spurs get away with "murder."
If I'm wrong, please clarify your "analogy."
(And if you find that analogy "funny", you're sicker than I thought).
That's not funny, but you will make a fine 6th grader.
I've seen some of your posts. You're not that stupid. There's still hope.
Apparently I am. Or you are.
Here's the sequence of events, please tell me where I am wrong:
LavaLamp says (basically) fouls even out in a series. "Things always go back in balance."
You respond: "Like OJ, Robert Blake..."
ChumpDumper calls you out: "because Children's games are just like murder..."
You put up a definiton of "analogy", basically saying the Spurs (or basketball in general?) and OJ are "Similar ... in SOME respects that are OTHERWISE DISSIMILAR."
I'm still trying to figure out in what ways OJ and the Spurs are similar....
Or how OJ and basketball are even similar...
The discussion was about things balancing out, like karma. Things don't always balance out. That is supers ion. For example evolution gave you a large ego and a small brain and I received a large ego and a large brain.
But fouls in basketball games do have a tendency to "balance out."
It has to do with human mistakes, the different situations, different refs, etc. Yes, ideally, all basketball games would be called the same.
But they aren't. I believe, (and it would be interesting to see an actual factual study on this), that calls tend to balance out over the course of a seven-game series.
In any case, you could have just said, "I don't agree that foul calls balance out" instead of bringing up the bull OJ argument.
Because, you now are basically arguing that the Spurs are "getting away with it" like OJ. And that's going to be a... controversial subject on a Spurs forum.
(besides, the penalties for OJs actions may be awaiting in "another life." If you believe in karma and such things.... but that's a whole other can of worms.)
Bull ?1!?!? OJ got away with it. Robert Blake got away with it. The Spurs have been getting away with it and will continue to get away with it. Where's the controversy? Oh... maybe you're one of those who thinks OJ was innocent. Flat Earther type personality. Art Bell listener? Maybe you're one of those unfortunates who think that Fox news is fair and balanced.
The Spurs aren't murdering their wives/ex-wives ... but they are killing their es.
So I get the analogy.
Get away with what? They have 3 more fouls in the series than the Suns do, so what exactly are they getting away with? And way to steer your argument away from the fact that MadDog made you look like another dumbass Sun fan
Ahh, you show your true colors. Another NBA conspiracy theorist, who believes that David Stern feels a Spurs / Piston Final would somehow be better for ratings than Suns / Cavs.
Or, maybe you feel Peter Holt has paid off the officials. Or, it goes deeper than that, and Popovich is using government connections to fix games: It goes all the way to the Top! Bush is a Spurs Fan! (hmmm, he is from Texas... but then, why did the Mavericks get eliminated in the first round? Must have been a red herring).
No, I don't watch Fox news. Funny for you to mention Art Bell... I thought the black helicopters were circling your house! I'm afraid I don't believe half of what I watch on TV. I take everything with a mountain of salt, and try to stay objective about the world at large. I certainly don't believe the Spurs (or any other NBA team) is "favored" to win by external forces.
The only thing I concede is the Spurs are better at playing in the Playoffs, because they have more experience. If anything, that should give you hope, cause trust me, I was where you are now and few years ago crying "Conspiracy!" about the Lakers.
And then I realized I was full of , and just looking for excuses of why "my" team lost.
With Bowen I think we are talking about the quality of the foul, not the quan y. If he seriously injures someone or possibly destroys someones career because of his out of control playing style, all the fouls in the world will not make up for it. He's a fricking menace. BTW "dumb ass" is spelled with two words. Not a good word to misspell in that context.
If Bowen was such a threat, don't you think he would be suspended by now?
He's not a "superstar" in the NBA's eyes, yet he's guarding people who make the NBA lots of money. If the NBA saw him as a serious "menace" he would be banned. Period.
But he's not. So, if the NBA doesn't seem him as a threat (which has a lot more riding on the success of its stars than anyone else), why should I?
