I have never been either! I resent the implication of this I've been on this site nearly 19 years and never been accused of such a thing. I made a joke about the man's appearance based on his physical resemblance to the character from the movie. For all you know I'm Jewish myself. There is no bigger supporter of Israel than I am. Take your PC BS and put me on ignore if you don't like my sense of humor!


Posting a common, rather well known, anti-Semitic trope is a weird way of “supporting Israel”, or having never been racist or anti-Semitic, if you think so. If it’s truly an accident, and you really had no idea, then say so, delete it, and move on. That will tell some truth of your intent.

Also, if you were Jewish, you would know that wouldn’t exclude you from posting anti-Semitic items yourself, too.


I've been cool with you for a long time. Accusing me of this BS is not cool you can go ____ yourself.

If you fellas are on Twitter, this is a pretty good account to follow. You can see Lavine has not been any worse defensively then Curry, FVV, Beal, and anyone else below him. However he has been a top 25ish offensive player thus far.

Looks like Brogdon has been your best player and Holiday your worst player.

....and you’re just doubling down on your anti-Semitism.

Again, if it’s an honest mistake, say that, delete it, and let the takeaway be that you know better and you’ll do better. That it was an honest mistake.

But if you make a racist or anti-Semitic statement or comparison, have it pointed out to you, and go on the attack, then your words and action will reflect solely upon you. Attack me all you want, but you’re still the one defending an anti-Semitic comparison. :dontknow:

Locking this to avoid this going any further.

Intentional anti-semitism or not, the sentiment above re: Adam Silver, conspiracy theories and general over-the-line-comments are not funny, constructive, or at all welcome here on the Pacers board.
