I don't see your word, "Never" in there!

Try again.


Believe it or not, other words can mean "never" than the word itself.

"Can't imagine something happening" sounds a lot like you saying it will "never" happen, doesn't it?

Please enligten dimwitted Krap on how these phrases are different. Thanks.

Quit the e-battle, guys. It's derailed the thread.

On topic, though, I don't think Flynn has any value right now. Should have traded him when he was coming off his injury...

Humiliating Fail. You put words in my mouth, and they weren't true .. again.

Then you showed you can't defend another lie. Is there anything in here that says this?

You really want everyone to believe that you don't understand what "never" means?

OMG you guys!!! It is so humiliating!!! Not. Please explain how "can't imgaine something" -- what you said -- means something different than I said yo said -- "never". You've done a good job of underlining, but not a very good job of explaining.

Here's the whole post to compare. You can see why Krapinsky editted it down too.

shrink wrote:
Krapinsky wrote:And if Kahn can get this package for him, then he should do it. I haven't found a Wolves fan that disagress (yet).

Ugh .. and I hate when you do your appeal to popularity.

That doesn't make it realistic, or change who Kahn is.

Of course Kahn will listen to offers, but its also very unrealistic that he's going to hear the best offer for Flynn right now. I can't imagine his view of Flynn has changed so dramatically, or that he'd be willing to admit it.

With your texts to the media, I think you guys are getting yourselves worked up over something that isn't going to happen.


This doesn't say Kahn will never trade Flynn. It says what it says:

1. That Kahn will listen to offers.

2. That it's very unrealistic that he's going to hear the best offer for Flynn now.

3. That I can't imagine his view will have changed so much (from the #10 offered when Flynn was injured during the draft), that he'd be willing to accept this low offer.

Now care to find someplace where I said Kahn will never trade Flynn at this time (your words) - not for Bayless or for anything?

First, do you think it's possible that Kahn will hear a better offer than the #10 right now? The answer seems like a truism which need not be explained. If you don't think it's possible, and I think everyone on the planet would agree, then by you saying you can't imagine him trading Flynn for less, you are also saying he would never trade Flynn right now. Agree?

I'm willing to drop it. I tried, but then I come back an hour later and I see a delayed response calling me a moron, or a liar, or someone with a "modus operandi" to put words in peoples mouth.

So, although Calvinball is an intriguing game, I have to ask if anyone else thought that there was a potential parodox in that "the only rule is that the rules never stay the same."

Good luck getting an answer from shrink, I'm still waiting for him to explain the flatlander theory. :lol:

Post of the thread.



Lupus is right. Get back on topic and stop with the personal agendas against each other or this thread will be locked. Go to the soccer board if you want a place to do that.

Wolves can dangle Flynn all they want, but right now it's like throwing a bare hook in the water with no bait. In hindsight, they made a mistake by not leaving him down in D-league. Since his return, Rambis seems to struggle finding any reason to put him on the floor other than giving Ridnour a break ... would be different if he was showing progress.

Moving Telfair when Flynn is disfunctional obviously poses some issues for Kahn. I think we are nearing the point where we need to cut our losses
Flip response to Love wanting out, "He has no reason to be upset, you're either a part of the problem or a part of the solution"
