KP Just Said Oden Out 7-10 Days

[maxiep]

Is that why you initiated personal attacks with at least two posters over the past few days? That screamed "ignorance" to me, especially when you can't even frame my opinion in the correct context.

I was referring to the ignorance of his post about Oden's injury and surgery. But you may feel about me any way you wish. That being said, I think it's time you got over me, PapaG. It's just not healthy. I want you to be happy, and you'll only find happiness by finding another poster over which to obsess.

I haven't seen any of the personal attacks cleaned up over the past two days. You guys set the tone of conversation here, and Minstrel's post quite clearly defines what is acceptable.

It's like deja vu...

Nah, I had one of my posts to KingSpeed get cleaned up. I really was being a jerk to him, so I'm glad the mods deleted part of the post.

I'm sure I'll be told to shut up, but can anyone clue me in as to why Oden is out for another week? How can the team possibly put a timeframe on his return at this point?

It's an estimate. Estimates can be wrong.

I now realize that your posts were more about you (perhaps unwittingly) conforming to the norms of this board. So if calling people a "s****y fan" for having a differing opinion passes for reasoned debate, I am willing to move forward and adapt to the new culture of posting.

 

[Minstrel]

What? They don't have to be obeyed? Now you tell me. I've been trying to go fuck myself for a week!

You are allowed to obey, if you would find it fun.

In retrospect, I should have posted "I think you're being a shitty fan" not "I think you're a shitty fan". There's a temporary/conditional vs. permanent/fixed state difference between the two.

I don't have that kind of flexibility.

I would not have minded the former at all. It may even have had a ring of truth to it.

And that's much closer to what I meant at the time.

So, getting back on topic. G.O will either come back March 11, March 13th or just come back for the road trip. Nonetheless its hard for me to understand if this chip is an impairment on his running ability or just a mild pain. I wonder if off season surgery is in the works but the Blazers management just doesn't want to admit it. This recent issue with Greg is just plain foggy at this point but I bet its making the fans nuts.

WOw, that is one creepy avatar.

You don't realize that the attacks came with the migration? Those who led the migration are most responsible. Thin skins and pussy words follow this group no matter where its hosted.

So tomorrow will be 7 days. Will we have an update?

A lot of the fighting on this site is coming from the same 2-3 people posting the same negative shit in every thread. And it's gets really annoying.

In my experiences, I've noticed that that tends to be about what is considered average for forums/news groups. You have about 2-3 people who are either negative or just ass holes, and they dominate the "mood" of the overall board. And they tend to be the ones who pass the blame for the attitude onto any and everyone else (mods, popular posters, or the "man").

It's one of the negatives of such an open forum.
