Freeland is one of the biggest surprises from last years team. This was a guy who held his own in the Olympics and was one of the best big men in Spain. I thought he would come in and compete for the starting center spot but he wasn’t close to even being a backup. He wasn’t impressive in summer league either. I’m not sure what the issue is with him he doesn’t seem to do anything well at all.

If he just improves to being an acceptable 3rd string center that would be more than I expect this year.

I think the speed of the NBA game shocked him. It was like he was stuck in mud the entire season. He needs to change his training to this:

I can't believe we haven't had measurable rain in over a month and why does crandc always have pictures like that as here avatar. Why always fight the fight? There has to be more to you than just your sexuality. It doesn't always have to be about lesbian or gay rights does it. I'm not offended by your pics, just a tad annoyed. move on and live your life as a woman, not a gay woman.

I'm waiting for you to say the same thing to OregonHuskerMan, your pal Shooter and all the others with all the heterosexual cheesecake stuff. And why is having an avatar like hers not "living her life as a woman"? Or even a human being? You're kind of assuming that a "normal" woman wouldn't have political opinions like that. Which suggests a lot more people than crandc need to have those kind of avatars.

It's just crandc's humorous attempt to show the equivalent of scantily-clad women in avatars. I think it's quite funny and occasionally thought provoking (she gets some pretty risqué photos that I wouldn't think twice about if it were a woman, but make me stop and think because it's a guy). I applaud her for it. We should all have our assumptions challenged from time to time.
 
My avatar is about perception. Remember those pics in psych books that can be seen as either one thing or another? What do you think (so far as I know most posters here a white, straight and male) when you see five young African American men, shirtless, with obvious attitude? Do you see threats to avoid, or do you see a "sissies" to be targeted?

What do I think? The state of Oregon has like 3% black people living here and 99.5% of em lived in my neighborhood growing up. Looks like another day at the hoops courts to me. I wasn't trying to offend you, I'm just curious why everything always has to lead back to your sexuality. Just be yourself, move on and talk hoops!

Wow, I guess people in Portland are a fuck of a lot more ripped than they are in Flint, MI. Because there's a lot more fatties at the pickup games I go to. You must have stuck out, then...
 
Oh wow, did you see that exiting fast paced action packed baseball game last night? You know, Americas past time.......Ya..... Neither did I!

HCP, I wrote that in the Dog Days without NBA basketball I am watching the A's. You brought up avatar, not me. And as others said, I have yet to see you comment negatively on the straight boys posting nearly nude women.
 
Why would you comment? Why would you care?

I prefer fat, muscular women who know how to wring a mop. In case I ever get stuck on a desert island.

I have watched Gilligan's Island every afternoon for 50 years, and those two skinny broads are good for NOTHING.
 
Anyone can put another person on ignore if offended by his/her avatar. I have done so.
 
I'm thinking of all the ways to spend her money on the island. What a catch.

Seriously! It's actually ridiculous.
 
I don't like her avatars because they aren't very work appropriate. I don't want my boss walking by, or my son viewing the site to read me posts while I recover and seeing pictures of half naked men on my screen. Just as I don't want my boss walking by, or child seeing and seeing half naked women on my screen. it forces me to turn avatars and sigs off, thus making it harder for me to locate certain posters posts.
 
Wait a second.. You can just hide all avatars by clicking one box in the settings... What's all the hubbub about?
 
I've never noticed crandc complain about others' avatars, or bring them up, except in defense of her own. If she has, I've missed it. In this case, she only discussed her avatar because someone else gave her shit about her own. Again.

crandc's avatar doesn't bother me in the slightest, which is why, until now, I've never commented on it. I guess since it doesn't stir any repressed, confused yearnings in me, I just ignore it. Personally, I think tlong's avatar is the boss, and hard to ignore. I'm old fashioned that way.

I agree no one should give a shit about avatars, unless they cause a problem at work, I suppose. One thing I do know, is that this group would argue with God on Sunday. If it isn't one thing, it's another.

The Dog Days, indeed.
