Down 0-3 and starting a thread guaranteeing a win is trolling. Just like it would be trolling if someone started a thread up 3-0 guaranteeing we lose the series.

The blind homers are ever bit as bad as the negative Nancy's

If I posted that in a Spurs forum, sure. But this is a forum for Blazers fans. My guarantee shouldn't upset anyone unless they're not Blazers fans.

You know, had we won game three I told my doctor we had a shot to win in six, but after losing I thought we would win last night and lose badly in game five. SA thinks this as well because they rested their entire starting line up in the 4th quarter. They don't seem the least bit concerned

So you get to explain your opinion of how the Blazers will perform in this series but I don't? Get outta here.

Your "guarantee" is ignorant and annoying

I guess I don't understand? Were you not able to express your ridiculous opinion? If you are referring to being called out on it, I get called out for my opinions all the time

I admit I had given up hope and was just watching the last game out of my blazer addiction, but then when they started to play well, I quickly recovered my smile and my enthusiastic TV viewing stance. Had a blast, and personally, I'm just real happy it isnt a sweep, as I think sweeps can be very harmful on the psyche of a team. As far as next game goes, I have no idea, but I'll be perched and ready to cheer on every Blazer point. I actually have a pretty good feeling about next game, but after watching the first three I don't trust my gut feeling much anymore.

What shark-horse here said goes for me too.

When I posted a "i told you so" thread it got trolled hard, I got personally attacked and the thread got deleted.

I see as long as someone posts as a "blind homer" they don't get trolled, and they don't get their threads deleted.

even though.. and I quote from one of the trolls.
"childish I told you so thread"

I hope the Blazers do come back and win though.
no one will see that, as I imagine this post will be deleted.

I have been reading kingspeed for years... at times he is annoyingly raw raw, but thats just his faith in the team, his natural demeanor. I have been reading mm for years through name changes and all, he can be annoyingly pessimistic and abrasive. Thats just his demeanor. Both are fans o the team and it manifests differently for each. Yin and yang.

How is it ignorant? Weren't you ignorant when you picked us to miss the playoffs? Most people here picked us to make it. Natebishop correctly picked us to be 5 seed.

I have literally never changed my name
 
My guarantee stands. I won't fight MM anymore. I will say I told you so after we win the series though.

Is that what your mom was talking about?


Kidding, of course. I couldn't decide to throw the insult with mom or the depracating humor with my wife
 
Trolling (Websters Dictionary)
slang ( intr ) computing to post deliberately inflammatory articles on an internet discussion board.

Trolling gets WAY overused and with the wrong meaning. Same way "racist" gets EXTREMELY overused.

People seem to latch onto a polarizing term and use it for every circumstance, regardless if its true or accurate.
 
What's this? Another forum thread derailed by MM? No..... you don't say....:sigh:

Congrats once again on proving how you don't understand what trolling is.

Is this thread meant to incite people? Nope.

Did it turn into a big bitch fest? Nope, not until you and honki posted. Why can't you guys just fucking post about basketball? Why does everything have to turn into a complaint about the meta of this board?

actually in the thread you deleted, because it was an I told you so thread. which is what this is, meant to get people who don't agree to dialog with.
when I asked you about it, you said it turned into a bitch fest. You said nothing about the TWO people who trolled the thread and de-railed it. But this thread is the same thing minus the trolls. An I told you so thread.
though your post was "okay I was wrong, I thought the Blazers matched up better". But the other two had no intentions to talk basketball, only to cry that the Blazers were down 0-3 and someone posting an I told you so thread" was childish.(notice how I'm saying the posts were childish, not the people. therefore it fits into the rules of the forums)

And tbh I do normally talk basketball, just because my opinion on a forum isn't the same as the typical Blazer fan, or I call out silly posts. Doesn't mean I'm not talking basketball. Just means I'm not going to be the typical homer and say. "oh we're going to win 4 in a row after being down 0-3" Then come and say before the Blazers and Spurs even play game 5. Guaranteeing a win in the series... And then telling everyone in an attacking manor. "I will come back and say I told you so." That's quiet hostile and inciting

A rule incase forgot.

That allows all opinions to be heard, even if it is not his or her opinion!

I'm so glad MM opened another account to agree with himself with, he has brought balance to the force
