So you're just trolling now?

You ignore context. Cousins = 4th pick. Beasley = two 2nd rounders.

Typical troll bs.


Your just an appologist clown. Grats!

When Kahn gets fired, do you go away?

We all know beasely has issues, I don't think anyone has suggested otherwise.
We were told cousins had issues, correctly it seems.

I like Cousins. If I were GM I would've rolled the dice on the kid, but I understand why Kahn and the FO didn't. I think many underestimate Wes Johnson, he doesn't have the ceiling of Cousins, but he has a slightly higher floor. It's way to early to judge and I don't understand why everyone is letting the speculative opinions of posters ruin their kool-aid.
None of the claims are poor, so why get so offended?

(this post is not directed at anyone specifically, I'm just trying to play mediator by pointing out that anything could happen and it's too soon to pigeon hole these players.)

Seriously. Its gotten to the point where if you don't agree with someone you are either an apologist/jock rider or a hater/"BSPN" fan boy.

Get over it.

Eventhough I like Johnson and do not like Cousins, this statement carries some truth IMO.

This opinion cannot be centered around one poster ... there are many who tend to believe their own speculation is the gospel.

Guys, stop with the namecalling. I've asked once nicely already and I'm not going to ask again.

People are allowed to have dissenting opinions, this isn't a fascist regime here. We should be able to have a mature, civilized discussion without calling each other haters, trolls, or apologist clowns. If you feel you can't do that, then I guees this isn't the forum for you.

I just thought it was a forum for Wolves fans. :dontknow:

Seriously, though, I wish you would allow an exception to the rule and allow the Dark Lord and I to go at it. I think it's quite amusing for the both of us. Sorry if it makes everyone else uncomfortable.

Sorry but when you two start at it and call each other names, it upsets other posters then they report it and I have to do something about it and then I have to play the big meany and that makes me grumpy then I go home and yell at the dogs and that upsets them so they bark and growl at the neighbor kids who then grow up feeling terrorized by dogs so they start torturing animals and that leads to spousal abuse and other acts of violence which eventually leads to them becoming a serial killer. It's best to just stop the circle of violence.

Wait, so you two are the guys who sit in front of PeeDee and me during games and fall asleep before halftime? Who knew? :lol:
