kgceltics gets discussed pretty frequently on the Mod board, I'm sure/hope his time here is almost done.

On a whole, Celtics fans may be the biggest homers on the site. I rarely go to the Celtics board anymore because of the quality of discussion. But this guy really is a tireless annoyance, much beyond our usual levels.

Most of the Denver regulars stick around the Denver board, or at least don't make complete fools out of themselves when they venture elsewhere.

The few regulars we do have that venture out are generally pretty damn good posters like corona.

The Hornets board is like me and a couple other guys who stop in and out, they certainly aren't around enough to cause a fuss. We're a very humble bunch over there. :lol:

Where were you last year when the Raptors were good?
They by far have the biggest homers on RealGM

Raptors have a national fanbase, which really skews those numbers. I'd go with New York Knick fans.

2poor, your on.

When I first joined RealGM I didn't know the Raptors even had fans. Where the heck did they all come from?

BeP, you're out of your mind. But I'm still in.

The only way Melo doesn't average at least +5 on Deng is if [in the words of corona] "the only way you don't win the bet is if melo truly dedicates himself to passing (which is possible), and denver's blowing out every 3rd opponent by 20 in the 4th quarter...and he won't be playing as much."

Mind you if this is the case, there would really be no doubt even to the craziest homers (you and Duck) who the "better" SF is. :lol:

I have been watching some of it. The Rockies/D'Backs series was pure crap but the Red Sox/Indians series has sort of been good. Hopefully the Indians can pull it out.

I watched the first inning yesterday, then turned it off after they played "Cleveland Rocks" for the first time.

For sure...since I live in Ohio, I'm forced to root for the Tribe since my Cubbies are out. :cry: Hopefully the Tribe can finish off the Sox tonight and move on to the World Series and hopefully win it. I'd love to see my hometown team win it, if not the Cubs.

Well, at least it's to a good team. And the defense is alright. Unfortunately it's paired with the worst offense I've ever seen. They either go 3 and out or turn it over. Every. Time.

Way off-topic here, but I have been constantly listening to In Rainbows by Radiohead, R.E.M. Live, and Echoes, Silence, Patience, and Grace by Foo Fighters. I know I was trolling in my earlier post about the Bulls, but Paxson was an idiot to sign Big Ben. The guy was the worst player on the team and Webber replaced him easily. Big Ben is the equivalent of Tony Battie starting: All defense, mild offense in form of dunks or lay-ups, and absolutely no clutch free throws what so ever. It's not like there was a dire need for him, anyways. I'm sure the Bulls would have made the playoffs if they hadn't signed him. They could have signed someone like Arenas, Duncan, Al Jefferson, Okafor, A.I., Jermaine O'Neal, Elton Brand, Corey Maggette, VC, Marion, Artest, or Jamison. All of whom except O'Neal probably would have helped the franchise a great deal more than Big Ben. Paxson also needs veterans on the Bulls team. He just drafts every pick that the Bulls get. On paper, the Bulls are not much better than the Bobcats or the Kings, but they somehow get in the playoffs every year, but miserably fail (point in case games 1,2, and 5 vs pistons.) They are like the D-Backs in baseball, luck! luck! luck! But in a way all of you are fairweather fans, the analysts absolutely adore the Bulls and every year they say that this year the young team will break out and win a championship. But I will admit that all between you and the division title is the Pistons. (I hate the Cavs.)
