I'm not going to stop if they don't. I will promise that. If it gets me banned so be it. I don't want to belong to a site that tolerates bigotry and condemns those that call people on it. If i thought that i was speaking in error i'd say it. I know I'm not.

I will leave this alone but if they don't I'm not either. Each time they make reference I'm going to respond.

I do realize , in this case, Google Lawyer was the main instigator...but still..don't be the lotion that gets him off.



CB ignoring it isn't the answer. It really isn't. That is the worst thing a person can do.

Why? What’s the point? No one is changing their minds. It accomplishes two things: it ruins threads for everyone else and gets your own blood pressure up. Who cares?

People do it because he continuously falls for the bait each and every time.

Hey LTG, see this post here? This is what we call "bait." People lay bait for you as well, but instead of ignoring it and moving on with the thread, you jump at it. It only encourages it further.

This is also going after bait.

I think they will be able to pull it off. Simmons is unselfish as hell as a player and his style of play really complements Embiid.

I'm interested in the Fultz/Simmons dynamic going forward. I think there may be some problems in terms of ball handling playmaking. They haven't played them together yet but i wonder how that is going to work onve they do. They're both dominant ball handlers but it is obvious that they consider Simmons the PG of the future.

I'll continue to call out threats to murder other posters. If it gets me banned I dont care. The worst thing you can do is ignore it. MANY aren't willing to even identify those types of posts, much less discuss them, but I am.

Nah because when people believed that i was being anti Semitic there wasn't much ignoring of anything. A lot of baseless accusations that i felt compelled to refute.

If I'd referred to you as that i doubt that would it would be received the same way. Could be wrong though.

Lmao the two bitchiest posters have a rivalry. This is great.

The Black burrito vs whatever is the main enemy in that movie but he has the word burrito in his name as well. I don't know. Never bothered to watch it. Just like the NBA, too many blacks.

I'm not. If people want me to stop responding then they should call bigots out for being bigots. If they do thst then i won't. JLN is a bigot. I provided evidence of him and his bigotry. I provided evidence of Curious Hair saying bigoted bullshit too. No one commented on it. Either they are comfortable with the shit or its not important enough for them to comment about it.

To me those comments are more reprehensible than anything contained in the response. Frankly i'm not going to apologize with being uncomfortable about something that i should be uncomfortable about.

I get that Leash. I'm not trying to "move souls" or "change minds". A person can think whatever they want to think. Can be as bigoted as they wish but if they express bigoted views then it should be addressed. In terms of "who cares" I care. As an African American I care.

I told that idiot that i would stay out his way when he made the statement regarding placing me on ignore. The jerk has comtinued to make reference to me every step of the way.

If he continues then I'm going to continue.

They still need a defensive stud right? I'm guessing Embiid can protect the rim some but they need a 3&D wing like Mikal Bridges correct?

I'm sure you will disagree, but I truly believe that if there was consistently racist things on this board, most (and close to all) posters would condemn it. Not everyone is going to agree with what you think is racism. I personally think that JLN's law act is tedious, but I don't think much, if any, of what he says is racist or bigoted.

No one is asking you not to care about racism, but a lot probably disagree with what you think is racism.

Yeah. Covington is decent but i want an upgrade there. Simmons and Embiid are studs defensively. Think Fultz will be also. They are set up really sweet going Forward. Next year barring Injury i think it will be them along with Boston in the East.

Regardless of Lebron it will be those 2 teams. I'm looking forward to it as it will be reminiscent of the old Philly Boston rivalries of the 80's.

When a guy states that it is demeaning to be associated with a person because they have a Jewish name that is bigotry. JLN did that with the name Horowitz.

When a guys first instinct is to always focus on that sort of thing that is bigotry. He apologizes for Neo Nazis. Think about that. He has had a weird fixation with the 3 African American posters that use this site since the beginning.

That stuff is no accident.

He made a fool out of himself with the Horowitz stuff and frankly he exposed himself. Bigots always see things only in racial/ethnic terms. That is what he does. A few weeks previously it was "cooked Jews". He has a preoccupation with it and he has a preoccupation with defending bigoted behavior (as bigots often do)

Thanks didn't know Simmons was that good defensively. The Philly-Boston rivalry will be fun if Kyrie can stay healthy. The East really needs that type of rivalry where the two teams go back and forth each year. Really hoping to see Houston go to the Finals to set up Warriors-Rockets for the next couple of years.

They still need a defensive stud right? I'm guessing Embiid can protect the rim some but they need a 3&D wing like Mikal Bridges correct?



Yeah. Covington is decent but i want an upgrade there. Simmons and Embiid are studs defensively. Think Fultz will be also. They are set up really sweet going Forward. Next year barring Injury i think it will be them along with Boston in the East.

Regardless of Lebron it will be those 2 teams. I'm looking forward to it as it will be reminiscent of the old Philly Boston rivalries of the 80's.


Thanks didn't know Simmons was that good defensively. The Philly-Boston rivalry will be fun if Kyrie can stay healthy. The East really needs that type of rivalry where the two teams go back and forth each year. Really hoping to see Houston go to the Finals to set up Warriors-Rockets for the next couple of years.


Yeah the league is about to get really good. Its always good to see young teams step up. I've been wanting to see nee blood for years. Finally got it now. Should be good. What I like too is that either of those two can compete with the West going forward. They will be able to matchup with Houston or G.S. starting next season.
