Brad Miller And Salmons to Portland?

[Minstrel]

gs randolph.... hell i would take harrington at this point from ny

You didn't address my point vis a vis Brad Miller not being good at basketball anymore.

 

[LOTBfan]

he doesn't address points

I don't have self control with little punks like you. I didn't grow up like most of you did. We handle punks where I grew up.

I understand that.. I actually lived in some bad part of Mexico as a kid, and have spent quite a bit of my childhood with family in the Compton area.. But it gets to a point where you are above that, and better than what the specific person does. Reacting to it just gives them what they want. For me its the fact that I have a wife to take care of and I enjoy my life. You have a son who'm I'm sure you would give the world for. Things like that are what keeps me from "taking care" of people I cant stand... because one mess up with "taking care" of the dipwit.. and all that you love and live for in the world can be taken away from you like that. just remember my new seasons resolution.. "IGNORE THE DIPWITS"

 

[RR7]

Addressing your point, or anyone's point would be posting with "honorable intentions" according to the site rules. He doesn't do.

What guy? You mean the guy who thought it was such a great idea that he wouldn't even include his own name?

You're quoting trade rumors from this site - http://www.rotowire.com

"Rotowire.com 24/7 Fantasy Sports News & Games"

LOL nice find. Sweet avvy too.

It is indeed unfortunate the mods let obvious trolls post here.

Google AdSense! They prolly make enough off of it to cover the 8 dollar a month hosting fee.

not sure what you called him lol.. but I think its easy just to laugh at it than get upset for me.

I really, really try to not get worked up. Like how you said at the start of the year, we are all gonna just try to be cool and not get worked up. But after the 'Suns are funny' thread, which I thought was fantastic, then reading his post... just sparked a fuse in me.

all i did was post a trade i saw on yahoo.

i was attacked wether you will admit it or not.

if someone else posted this... we would be talking about how to get it done.

so perhaps guys like ben davis and roytoy are the trolls since they are attacking me. heres my question? why does bendavis and others read my posts if they hate me so much? a mature person wouldn't read them. its really that simple.

How about stop being so Debbie Downer and smile for once? Why can't you post a thread without bashing the Blazers or KP?

A legit poster would try to discuss the possibility of the trade, instead of whining about KP making a move that is impossible to make as mentioned. You don't give a shit about the article, or the trade. Or youwould have commented on the inability to actually make the trade. You do it to post your follow up rant, and get the reaction you get, which is clearly trolling, but for some stupid reason, allowed.

Google AdSense!

Sad that money is even ruining our online community now. Site is more concerned with a couple of dollars then peace.

I got tons of net love for you man. You are a good man Wheels. No matter how stupid I get online, you always talk me down to earth and give me another chance.

You are a great man, Wheels. Thanks again for your words

I am going to put that in my sig so I remember.

Actually, I agree with you. But there's not universal agreement among moderators that MIXUM isn't posting with honourable intent (and I understand the opposing viewpoint), which is why he isn't banned.

Of course, he also doesn't bother me much since I don't take him seriously.

I am determined to learn this kind of self control.

haha no prob. I may be only 23.. But I have been around the block a few times, and can relate to things.. good lord maybe the old people wise talk is why people on here think I'm 40 lol

They way you act and speak, I am shocked you are 23. You are very calm, mature and intelligent.

Keep up the good work, brother. You have a wonderful life ahead of you.

I mean, that's ridiculous. Where is there honorable intent, really? How is there an argument for that? It's naivete. If someone had the honorable intent toactually discuss the team, then theymight actually respond to posters who ask them questions, respond to their topics, etc. Am I allowed to just yell and whine at every opportunity, without regard to the community as a whole? It's absurd. I generally don't let it bother me, but there's times where you come to kill some time during work, because you're bored, and you actually want to discuss your favorite team, and instea you get his shit, in every thread, even if it has nothing to do with the thread, he gets to interject his negativity all over the palce. With no honorable intentions whatsoever. What was the honorbal eintention of whining in the Suns thread/ Can't he at least get week long bans, like PapG did? What did he do differently? I don't get it. It really degrades the quality of the site. I know they don't give a shit about me, and it's fine, but it needs to be brought up. It's ridiculous he can be a dick in every thread, and disrupt legitimate conversation. meh, whatever.

I do what I can.. I just know that trying to ignore them will make this place a lot more enjoyable for you

 

[santeesioux]

Holy crap, you're only 3 years older than me Wheels? Lol i thought you had at least a decade on me old man.

 

[Wheels]

lol I have been getting that a lot around here recently dammit! I'm gonna have to add my age to my details

 

[andalusian]

I am determined to learn this kind of self control.

Every time he annoys you, just post an answer "You know it ain't so, that's the truth, and you know it". I think that would hilarious. Heck, I am going to answer all Mixum posts that way from now on. Join me!

 

[santeesioux]

That probably wouldn't be a bad idea

 

[Wheels]

you just realized I feel like Dennis from Monty Python

"Old woman..."

"MAN"

"Sorry"

"I'm 37!"

"What?"

"I'm 37... I'm not old!"

 

[Minstrel]

I mean, that's ridiculous. Where is there honorable intent, really? How is there an argument for that?

The argument, essentially, is that he's been with the community for like ten years. Real trolls generally don't have that sort of longevity. Which is largely true...I've never seen a troll with that sort of dedication, though I'm sure they exist. There is the possibility that he's simply a very pessimistic, very irrational fan who doesn't deal well with disagreement.

That isn't what I believe, but I don't think it's completely impossible.

I got you by 6 years, and I have never seen Monty Python lol

I hear it is good!

 

[Minstrel]

I have never seen Monty Python lol

I hear it is good!

It's hit-or-miss, IMO. I'd recommend trying "Monty Python & The Holy Grail."

 

[Wheels]

Dude do yourself a favor and watch it! Such a great movie! The show is/was pretty good too. But not full on side splitting laughter like the movies. Also I saw Spamalot when it came to Portland.. great great musical.

 

[BenDavis503]

haha cool I will try that.

 

[santeesioux]

I concur with Minstrel, the Holy Grail is awesome.

 

[Wheels]

It's hit-or-miss, IMO. I'd recommend trying "Monty Python & The Holy Grail."

yes.. Holy Grail is perfect to start on.. Flying Circuis is def hit or miss.

 

[andalusian]

I always thought that "Live in Hollywood" is the best "Show" they made.

 

[Ed O]

#1: Why attack MIXUM for posting a link where a trade idea/possibility is discussed? I don't get it.

#2: Making dollars match is not that difficult. It took me about 30 seconds to do this one:
Blake, Outlaw, Howard, Joel
for
Salmons, Miller.
Why are people acting like it would take voodoo to make this trade line up? Why take the time to attack MIXUM when it's so easy to figure out on one's own?

#3: Whether the trade is possible is NOT the same as whether it's a good idea. I think this would be a bad deal for Portland; it doesn't help us that much this year, and I don't think that taking on Salmons' contract would make sense for the Blazers.

Seconded.

People mislike MIXUM's delivery and thus tend to throw the baby out with the bath water so to speak. I'm not real wild about his style, but I almost never get the impression he's trolling.

This trade proposal wasn't something he cooked up, he linked to it and discussion should have ensued.

Ed O.

Because many of us feel he is not "honorably" posting, we feel he is doing more harm to the discussion than good. He ruffles feathers, all he does it talk crap about the Blazers, staff, players, entire organization and he does it EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!

And he didn't just post a link, Ed. Come on!!! Turn your mod goggles off for a second. Do you really think he honorably wanted to discuss this trade? Or just post the link, say Martell sucks, say KP sucks and needs to figure out how to pull off the trade, or KP sucks and the whole organization sucks, rather than explain his POV.

To answer your question.

I ask you this as well then. Please answer.
