Yes, you've demonstrated your credulity in presumptuously and in error speaking for others. Many times.

Should another handle of yours be The Incredible?!
You already know why Randy and Laker Fan Dan took off. MSC barely participates because there isn't much discussion going on. You tend to derail it with bs. I mean he specifically told you the last time he posted that you ruin the board for him. I don't need to make things up. You just need to come to terms with the fact that your posting style annoys people.
You pretty much nailed it 'Koast, wading through all the nonsense is not worth the effort, there I go being hypocritical again! Sorry Derrick.
My "I sure miss this place" post meant what it implied, if it wasn't for WOW, Joe, Ziggy, Lurker, JoMal, Skander, JN, even occasionally Rick, I would never check in at all. If we could get Rolando, Ted, Gaither, 101, x3, and especially MSC back it would be easier to pop in more often.
I know I rub a couple people the wrong way, I know this because Rick and Derrick have ignored me ( I feel so dirty and cheap for that). But when it comes to talking pure basketball, or any of the other topics that come up here, I DO NOT sling mindless insults in my "analysis" to elicit an emotional response, I certainly never start and end my analysis with hate and confrontation. My problem is too often in the past, I allowed myself to be baited into doing exactly what the instigator wanted, offering downright mild by comparison retorts, and few and far between unlike the instigators slamming someone or something every time they post (DANG! Hypocrisy rears its ugly head again!) The exception is Rick. Rick, unlike the other one, is not trying to bait, instigate, or just plain ruin whatever discussion is at hand. He is merely giving his sincere opinion, it's not my fault I find his opinion so off the rails I simply must respond, and I am the first to admit I was harsh when doing so, but will NOT be so harsh in the future, I can shred his arguments easily enough without the "hypocritical" hate I am alleged to spew as much as one other on this board.
There, that little bit of unfinished business is done, now I can go about my day wondering who took the Lakers and what have they done with them.
Oh and by the way, good win last night Lurker, X3, 101, I still hope we draw you guys in the first, should be a good series.
