He has got to be one of the most giving players in the NBA of time and money.

Considering he hasn't even signed his big extension contract yet, this is even more impressive. Just another reason why Danny is my favorite player.

big props to Danny Granger. As a Raptor fan I wanted Danny to be picked at number 7 in 2005. Charlie V was still a great pick. When Granger was still on the board at 16 I was ecstatic. That is until our GM selected the human robot Joey G. Sigh. Good luck this year Pacer Fans. I cannot wait until the first Pacer vs. Raptor game this year. Should be a great one with JO and Tj playing their old teams.

Who are you to tell someone what to do with $500,000 that they chose to give away? Obviously, that school helped him become the person he is today.

I think its pretty pathetic that you are bashing someone for donating their money.

I think your pretty pathetic as well. You've always been so, actually, and I've made my views clear about that, so this attack comes as no real surprise. Pretty gutsy for you to do the whole judgment thing on me when in the past you said you aren't a judgmental guy. Your hypocrisy shines through like a blinding light, reflecting your own judgment against you.

Proof: viewtopic.php?p=16804054#p16804054


With that being all the time I'm willing to waste on you, your done. I don't ever want to hear you again. Enjoy your time on the mute list.

Especially when someone asked me why I said that this was such a waste. The reasoning, fully explained, is as follows.

this is such a waste, especially when the economy is so bad, and universities are practically swimming in money. How much money have they already made off of Granger from ticket sales and recruitment...

Pathetic. He sure doesn't have his priorities straight, even after visiting third world countries. How sad.
Rest in Peace, Pacerfan

Judgment? I simply said its pathetic that you feel you have the right to tell other people what they do with their money. I stand by that, and I won't apologize for it.

You talk about his priorities, I'd like to know what you have done lately to help the economics. I'm not saying you haven't, but I'd like to know what makes you think you have the right to tell people what to do with their own money.

Also, I don't recall ever saying I was not a judgmental guy. I probably said I try not to judge, and if I did judge I apologized for it. Only a egotistical maniac would say that they are perfect, I have plenty of flaws, just like everyone else. I don't even think your pathetic, I don't know you at all, it would be stupid of me to say your pathetic, I do however feel that the statement you made was pathetic and that its pretty pathetic that you feel you have the right to basically call someone out as being a bad person if they donate their money to someone or in this case a college that helped him become the person he is today instead of what you feel they should have donated it to. That, I will not apologize for.

For a side note, one could make the argument that with the money he donated to the college, they could give a better education to students, who could then help to try and turn the economics around.

Seriously though, am I suppose to be offender from being on your mute list? As far as I am concerned, good riddance.

Hey, calm down. It's Granger's money to spend, much as it's our right to wonder aloud whether or not it could have been spent in more charitable endeavors. Keep it off the boards.
