Logano did get a little feisty, but the France's have been saying for a few years now that they are going to let them race. You can't say "Have at it boys" then start punishing guys when they do. It's good for the sport to be a little edgy at times.

Tony manages to get himself involved in a lot of the Nascar drama, so I wouldn't be too surprised about that.

You can whine about Byron Mullens. We love doing that around these parts.

Did some random basketball-reference research on who has missed the most consecutive FG's in the history of the league. Seems like Kevin Burleson missing 35 in a row is the record. Any more experienced Bobcats fans care to comment?

haha, that's a great name.

Yes, he is. There were a handful of players he still has to surpass before he reaches Burleson. Should have written this stuff down, I only remember that Marko Jaric was one of them. No surprise there.

were you also angry that someone like Simmons couldn't remember that the second guy was Jason Kidd? he should be the guy who knows this story by heart.

I'm watching Marvels the Avengers...............after 3 bottles of wine, and I cant stop thinking about who would actually win if the comic book dudes threw down.

So, who you got?

Ironman Vs Thor?

I was banned from RealGM for 24 hours by tsherkin last night for my one and only post of the day, in the Gerald Henderson thread on the GB:

amcoolio wrote:Its absoultely insane to suggest that Deshawn Stevenson, Avery Bradley, current Chauncey Billups, or a slew of other players listed are better than Henderson right now. I'm not even that big a fan of Henderson, but all you have to do is watch a Bobcats game to see the difference. Its literally no use arguing with Tyler Sherkin, he is dead set in his ways.


Sad, really. No reason given, no warning, and its not like I have any warnings anyway. I didn't bate anyone or him, there are lots of posts in that thread with just as "strong" language directed at him. If he wants to play that way, then he's gonna have to go on my ignore list, despite our many good-natured arguments and bets over the years. Can't risk a permaban because I call him out on questionable thought process

He's at it again... banning people who call him out and disagree with him. That's garbage. :nonono:

Everything you said in that post was dead on accurate.


He still hasn't produced more than 10 legit names that are better than Henderson, and no I'm not counting Randy Foye, Deshawn Stevenson, and Billups. :lol:

tsherkin is full of ****.

This is completely wrong and goes against what Realgm is all about, fair enough there are limits but you weren't the one that crossed them, this is abuse of mod power as is engaging in trolling and hiding behind a position of authority, signs of both a authoritarian and a contrarian.

You should let Mass know, this is BS.

Fair enough we get **** on for being the Bobcats but we don't have to stand for this.
