Even more than Melo.
But ultimately he seems like a good guy.
Guy would rather enjoy his family than playing ball and making money he doesn't really need. Sounds like he needs an ovation for valuing the things this country claims that matter.
Well this is my point. Derrick is a human being, too. He has a family. He has other things on his mind besides basketball and money. If he was a Knick still, as Knicks fans, in this alternate reality we create here on this board where the only thing that matters is the Knicks winning games, then we would have our panties in a bunch over it. But reality is different. And I don't think it's cool to "take swipes" at Rose about his injuries and his manhood and his heart, based off a decision he's making about his health, with his future and his family in mind. But the minute I get riled up about that, and stand up for real people who are being unfairly attacked, anonymous posters get offended. They talk about me indirectly and say I have mental issues lol.
Too bad. I know I'm standing up for what's right, and I don't care who gets their feelings hurt. Maybe they deserve that. Maybe they need a proverbial smack in the head. And I'll be the one to do it, I don't give a damn.
Fans are so entitled. Thinking they have the right to attack players and hold them to the fire for such trivial sh*t. Very trivial when you think about the big picture in life. But I know these are the types of people who don't or can't see the big picture. So f*ck em. I don't have respect for em. Tell me I have mental issues. Tell me I'm bi-polar. Doesn't change what I think about you. Pushing carts? That's my way of saying, unless you can prove you are a better man than Rose, then shut up.
Want to protect your right to criticize pro athletes and celebrities? Ok. Good for you. I have a right to speak up, too.
I know our very own Harthorne Wingo had surgery on his leg recently. I wonder how it effected him. I wonder if he became soft. And if I started calling him soft and attacked his manhood and reputation, I'm sure that would be looked down upon big time, as it should. But I would never do that, because I have respect for people. But y'all acting like I'm crazy and disrespectful which is hypocritical after you just disrespected someone who doesn't even have the chance to respond back. Some of you don't like being confronted. Some of you don't like having this illusion shattered for everyone else to see.
Deal with it.
I'm crazy. I have issues. Sorry. Deal with it.
You're gonna act like a punk and say some slick sh*t that you know wouldn't be tolerated on the street or in a face-to-face setting, then you can expect Billy P to come through at some point and take you to task.
I'm a bad person.
