How many times have I said "NFL off season talk" in this thread? Go back and count. It has to be a least five or six.
Need help counting, LTG?



Yeah only to post something irrelevant like In season ratings.

I can bump it if you like but the message board purists would crucify me for bumping something which proves a claim that i make. They hate that sort of thing.

Stop.

You said I don't understand the difference between off and in season, and put words into my mouth. I told you to count how many times I have said "NFL off season" in this thread. You refuse to because it's going to make you look even worse.

Now change the argument again and bring up race. It's about time for you to do that again.

Instead of Beardown posts and ratings, why don't you bump this, JLN. Post where I specifically said that "Chicago doesn't give a damn" about basketball. Find the exact post and link it here. C'mon. I dare you.

You continuously made reference to the NFL being the most popular sport. That isn't relevant if its the off season. For you to constantly make reference to it demonstrates that you don't understand the difference.

As far as race goes i wasn't the first person to bring it up but i will state that I'm the only person in this thread that has been honest about it.

All you have to do is look at all the people ducking the Beadown shit.

Again it is from this group that we are expected to get candor and honesty? you can take that bullshit somewhere else.

This is Chicago. For the most part, nobody cares about the NBA playoffs unless the Bulls are involved. NFL chatter is year round. You are in the minority with your NBA love and interest. I'm not saying that is bad, but its a fact.

Yesterday's show was not 90+% Odell Beckham talk. From what I have read on here, there have been MANY B&G and B&B shows where out of town NBA talk has been the main subject.



Evidence you ask? I'm sure semantics will be forthcoming. Another way to deflect.

NFL has no offseason. Ok I'm done. And you wonder why question your ability to comprehend.

Clearly you have the comprehension problem.

Meaning that it can be March, April, September, or any other month of the year and there can always be a sports radio segment done on the NFL that will get some interest.

This is just a dumb stupid thought. "Get some interest" doesn't determine whether there is an offseason or not. Using that logic you can say the same of baseball or basketball. Hot Stove talk doesn't dictate whether there is an off season or not.

If they aren't playing games then its the off season

LTG, did you ever consider that maybe we don't like the NBA because the games are simply boring with no stakes to them? There are probably only 3 legitimate, maybe 4 teams in the league with a chance to win. The rest of the league is either in NBA Hell and in denial about it, or they are flat out tanking and doing a bad job of masking it.

The NBA could probably fix its problems if they instituted a hard salary cap (I would argue baseball needs one as well)

I'm just catching up on this but most of this post is just flat out wrong.

The NBA doesn't really have problems that need fixing. It's doing better than it has in the past 20 years and only the peak MJ/Bulls years have been better in the entire history of the league. Don't fix what's not broken would apply here in regards to salary cap.

You can try by not using a single event as the basis for your evidence.

No he was right because at that point i hadn't referenced race.

Its interesting how inference is used on here also. Apparently its cool for some to infer that something is about race but when it gets labeled racist they scream bloody murder.

I say again, in the context of sports radio in Chicago-- which was the context that YOU originally started this thread in-- the NFL has no offseason. Sports yakkers in this city can and have talked NFL year round. And they will continue to because the NFL > NBA regular season any time of the year.

The Bulls are irrelevant and that hurts interest. Until this year the Hawks were yearly contenders so that became the team people wanted coverage of.

Bernstein has tried to do national NBA talk with 2 different partners.


I disagree. When the Bulls were great guys still didn't talk a lot of hoops besides Mully and Hanley and B&B.



Were Mully & Hanley even on then?


Derrick Rose Bulls? I'm pretty sure they were. They have the highest rated show and still manage to talk ALL sports. Imagine that.



You're stretching in calling the Derrick Rose Bulls "great", aren't you?

No. They were easily one of the three best teams in the league over a two year stretch and had the best record in the league over that stretch. The 2011-2012 Bulls were a great team.

I don't remember a lack of Bulls talk from 2010-2012. Also, B&B went super-hard on the Bulls in the Vinny Del Negro years because after every single game they agonized over what a dipshit he was.

To go further B&B could not wait to veer of the dynastic Hawks after 15 minutes so they could get back to Bulls basketball hell.

The message board purists may not think so but I am not having it.

It may not be the popular opinion but to have but someone here has to speak truth in regards to race around here.

It will never be mentioned but we know what they fear. Men like me do not fare well with the white insecure marriage crowd. They know what I would do to their women and what their women would do to me.

Lol...

I just opened this thread after avoiding it for days because of the title.

It's slim pickins for sports radio after the tourney ends and baseball hasn't started, especially with bad NHL and NBA teams in town. The hate listeners will be out in force from all sides.

Yes, I'm not an idiot, and you are not nearly as clever or coy as you think you are. Those are both true statements. As was CH's expressed sentiment that you began this thread with the ultimate goal being to implicitly label people who dislike OOT NBA Talk as racist. He saw it, I saw it (but didn't want to tussle with you over it until you revealed yourself) Nas saw it (and tried to give you an out), and MANY other board members assuredly saw it.

I also see that there are racists other than Elmhurst Steve that post on this board.

In your opinion no one is racist and it is perfectly fine to infer about race as long as it isn't black people that are the ones providing the inference.

I see through your bullshit just like you claim to see through mine.

You aren't fooling anyone with your bullshit. Your racial antennae is always spiked until it comes time to address racism then you either start denying parsing or ignoring. I have multiple instances in the Beardown thread of you ignoring the racist shit that he spewed even as you chose to comment in the thread.

You are phony as hell.
