This would be completely true if he wanted it to be. We're not forcing him to be on twitter, or to allow all of us to follow him, or for his verified account to be operated without the input of a publicist.


Is this a joke?? You're blaming him for allowing you to follow him??
How about you take some responsibility for yourself and not follow him? Twitter is open for everyone. if you don't want to hear from someone, don't follow them.

Regarding inequitable opportunities for education, I 100% agree. I'm a teacher, and I've never worked in a private school or for a wealthy school district, but I've certainly seen the difference between poor communities and middle-class communities.

Jennings is the object of my scorn here, because he's clearly bright enough to act more responsibly and chooses not to do so.

I'm glad Dre seems like a genuinely good kid. I hope he stays that way.

I agree. It comes back to that whole cool to be ignorant thing.

Wow. You guys are going way too in depth in explaining why you don't like Brandon Jennings. I'll tell you why I don't like Jennings. I've watched how he plays and acts on a basketball court. No point in thinking much more about it since we are talking about a point that doesn't think.

Jennings sucks.

I'm bored, what can I say. In recent years, NBA has passed MLB as my favorite sport (never been much of a NFL or NHL guy), and this summer has been long for whatever reason.

Over invested sports fans who think these businessmen owe them something. People need to get some fresh air, it's summer for gods sake. These players couldn't care less about some concern troll who's determined they aren't eloquent enough to be on their list of players with ''high character'.

Busy wasting keystrokes disliking someone that makes your salary in a year in one week. It's pathetic!

I don't follow him.... I was simply pointing out that if Jennings wants his business to be his business, he could do certain things to make that happen. He clearly WANTS people to see who he is and hear what he has to say.

I don't care one lick about Jennings. But when people say stuff like "He can do what he wants, and no one should think a damn thing", I can't help but laugh.

What's more sad, what you said above or jokers like you thinking they have a right to police a message board?

Nice job missing the point, by the way. "High Character" and "eloquent" aren't anywhere near the same thing. If that's what you think, or that's what you think I said, you're really off-base. As for "owing me something", that's just pathetic -- where did you get that from?

Jennings = Reasonably eloquent, not high character at all
KCP = Not eloquent at all, but seems like a high character guy

Get it straight, and don't waste your time telling me to avoid posting opinions on a message board.

My feelings on Brandon Jennings can be very concisely explained...he's obviously talented but I hate the way he plays the game.

That is all.
