My mistake, I didn't know my post referenced The Wicker Man. Must be one of those cultural differences I don't get.
If you didn't catch the innocuous joke, I'll remember to use a "" or a "
" for your edification.
Don't even get me ing started on that . I been through too much in that department at only 23 and I am lucky no babies or marriage came out of it. Leave it alone.
Not from scratch. But I see the point you ballooned there.Basically all previous Spurs championship teams have been rebuilt and started over from scratch, even Pop did this at the philosophical level...they performed similarly in the regular season, but they were more injury prone and underperformed in the post season.
They're playing like a team? Really.?.For once, they are actually playing like a team that remembers it won a championship last season...these games just aren't as big of a deal as they were last season.
Similar to,.. this year? No. That's obvious. This team has not looked like crap this year except for the 17-3 start. Take away that start and we are missing the playoffs... ever think about that kinda stuff?And it's not too hard to look at the past performance of repeat champions and see similar performances.
Or fiction.Fact.
It remembers it's a champion, or has yet to remember it's a champion?For once this team remembers it's a champion...and that'll show up when it comes time to win the championship.
And no matter how much you meltdown over it...this aint that time.
No meltdown. I love and believe. But I am a ing realist. Look at the facts. Stats don't lie. This ain't that time either.

Did I say they were dead? or did I say they in lost tonight? I think the latter brotha...
ROFL. I've asked the guy a very simple question multiple times and he refuses to answer it. How is that owning a thread? All he's done is say just because he's a Mav Fan doesn't mean he's oblivious to championship basketball. Fair take but that doesn't allow someone to cherry pick and just ignore repeated follow up attempts by just repeating what he's said in the thread a dozen times.
And I don't really see much arrogance coming from Spurs fans in this thread. Arrogance would be saying "the Spurs are going to win because we're the Spurs and the NBA is our b1tch!". Instead, by comparing past success and failures, some Spurs fans have decided that this team has a chance while other Spurs fans have thrown in the towel.
Why are people apologizing and fukin crying in here tonight? Grab your sack and bring it, damn, what a bunch of wusses....
Don't even remember what the other thread was I mainly reply to posts and don't care much for the name.
whottt is stupid ignore him. timvp is the man around here. He has so much pride and loves the Spurs probably more than Kori haha. Sometimes people just don;t see when they're being whatever way, and that don't make them wrong. It might not be healthy however. Just little less ego and a little more beer, or smoke. Whichever works.
Now that is arrogance.
If you don't agree that "The Spurs are Fine", then you've thrown in the towel?
Damn, here I was shooting for WC Fields.
Reboot your sarcasm detector.
Right now the Spurs aren't fine. They in suck ass. Does that spell it for some of you?
Again, you didn't ask me . You "asked" me with a bull , sarcasm-laden remark referencing the Mavs inability to win a le. You went to the same old tired, trite "argument" that has infected these boards regarding Mavs fans since around 2003 or so. Then you tried to play it off like you were actually asking for my opinion.
Had you asked me legitimately, I would have gladly answered. As it stands, I'm not going to do a 180 now and suddenly give you a legitimate response after you were so dismissive.
You are posting on a Spurs board and you can't take some friendly ribbing? And then you go emo on me and won't answer a question.
Classic.
Oh, now I am chicken little? Who locked my Ginobili lost the game topic?Originally Posted by SequSpur
I am chicken little personified.
RubADub's just pissed that he shows up after a loss (per usual) and not every Spurs fan is bailing. So we get the lecture about lacking objectivity as sports fans and what not.

He should ban you from ever starting topics altogether. Can't you just whine and cry in the game threads??? You only start threads because you want the attention.
Oh, that's rich. Go "emo" on you? Whatever you say, dude.
I'm all about the "friendly ribbing"--it's part of why I'm here. You gave no indication whatsoever that you were doing anything other than echoing the same sentiment that's been repeated here ad nauseum. As I said, it's trite.
And I'm still not buying it. You may well be "the man" around here, and I'm sure you're a respectable guy, but I think you were purposefully dismissive because I called you out for being overly optimistic, and now you're backtracking.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I doubt it.
Well, actually you're right, I need attention, therefore, I start topics on Spurstalk.com. It really helps me make it through the day.
I haven't ventured out of this thread. Wasn't me.
I've been here after Spurs wins, and, in fact, Mavs losses too. Try again.
The le of this thread is what is wrong with the Spurs.
They aren't fine.
They need to figure that out, and start playing like they have something to prove.
I think it was Jimcs50.
Try a little of thismight keep you away from the computer.
Maybe he's intimidated or doesn't want to get banned timvp? Seriously you have a bully demeanor being a man with power and presence of popularity here and he is aware of that.
Not saying that's exactly why but what I am saying is you provoke a fight or an argument over what he believes he sees. And he's right, that's the thing. The kid is ing right and you shouldn't shave him over it just because of tonight, or cir stances, or your mood, or whatever.
We all have flaws as regulars here and at times they are called out. People called me out recently, I handled it alright I think and moved on. TPark got called out for his disowning the team. I can go on but that's my point. You are seldom wrong or take right of it. You have to take good with the bad, I learned that being here, and so did um, almost every other reg. So should you. Step back, re-read his replies and the convo and try to relate in a different way that he isn't trying to say he knows more or any homer stuff like we suck or anything. He's being legit and might feel threatened by your position.
Sometime I think we all need to relax and give more credit than we'd like. Although I'm sure that will never happen.
And you're just now commenting to me when I've directed several posts to you. And about something to someone else even. So what gives man? I lurk all over this forum and only post in mainly 3 areas, I don't understand why you ducked shoog earlier either.Just understand not only can people believe, they can vent and comment and flat out diss the Spurs for all the right reasons. They are playing sickly, and Pop is coaching flat in his rotations and starters.
I understand we have had injuries, new players, and all that. But so does everyone else. We get called out then we answer.
As I stated before you have shown as well as other this egotistical view that we are better than other fans or teams when we are not. This is not last year, this is not 4 les speaking. This is the 07-08 Spurs and I feel like it trickles down to the fans even, not just the franchise who needs to get with it for a change.
How am I backtracking by asking you which specific parts of the post you disagree with? Throwing a blanket statement at an entire post and then refusing to answer follow up questions is rather arrogant.
Yeah, and either you are acting emo and now your feelings are hurt and you don't want to answer the question ... or you don't want to answer the question because you can't.
If me poking fun at the Mavs made you want to pick up your basketball and go home, that's fine. But staying here whining about a comment seven pages ago when you have a dozen posts since then is pretty lame.
