  1. is it possible that Hedo did a little growing up in Toronto? Maybe he realized the opportunity cost of giving up playing in a great environment, teammates, and organization, and that no dollar amount could replace that. At least, he wouldn't have negotiated his last year if he hadn't.

     

    I hope Hedo can continue his great play in the past month during these last few games, and elevate it during the playoffs.

     

    But he sucked in Phoenix too.


  2. You're using Mr. Shackleford as your exhibit for unjust?

    Historical: Dances With Wolves

    Pure Action: The Hunt For Red October? Really? Pure Action?

    And I haven't even gotten to Guess Who's Coming To Dinner or Blue Chips yet.

     

    Alright now, what's wrong with Dances With Wolves?

     

    To steal from Wikipedia:

     

    It is credited as a leading influence for the revitalization of the Western genre of filmmaking in Hollywood.

     

    In 2007, Dances with Wolves was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."

     

    AND YOU RATED IT LOW. You're killing me Smalls!


  3. I didn't think it'd be neccesary to post about my personal life, but since Sky brought it into this discussion.

     

    I have 3 children (2 boys and a girl). My little girl is only 2 years old so she's still a handful. My two boys are also a handful in their own right. I work a full time job as a programmer at a major software firm. I also am going to school at night to get my real estate license.

     

    I still find time to post on the forums, probably more than anyone else. So suck it.

     

    Which software firm, if I may ask? Penetrode? Initrode?


  4. Here is the problem:

     

    A lot of the people who are feeling bullied are unable to take criticism or realize they are simply wrong.

     

    For example, just because ESPN's Trade Machine let's you trade Fran Vazquez and a few draft picks for Chris Paul does mean it is worth my time to click on your link and respond in kindness. You are wrong. This will never happen.

     

    Because this happens time and time again, those who have been around for a few trade deadlines get a short temper, and often call out the idiots.

     

    BUT WAIT RUSTY! EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO AN OPINION!

     

    No. If you are wrong, you are wrong. Just because you want to argue that 1+1=3 does not mean I should sit back and say, "Jeez, I never thought about it that way!"
