Man there is nothing worse than a close game of nba basketball. It’s hard to cheer for your team when it means twenty minutes of free throws.

I watch every game on delay and skip through the FT's. I just care about the result, not watching each shot. Of course I also skip the ads and other breaks in the action. Makes watching much less time consuming and more enjoyable for me.

Cave/SWC, I always assumed you were both enjoying your **** talking. It doesn't interest me, so I don't pay it much attention. You're not derailing threads with it, or if you are it's in threads like this where nobody cares, so no harm no foul.

If either of you aren't enjoying your repartee, PM me and we'll follow it more closely. Obviously, SWC if you're doing personal attacks that aren't in the spirit of fun of your squabbles, that's not cool, so knock it off.

As for your permaban, Cave, you were absolutely in the right to call out Viper, and getting banned over that was lame. I wasn't a mod then, but my interpretation was it was more of a lifetime achievement award than it was for calling him a name once. It's not like you were a wallflower, and oops the word neanderthal slipped out and you were banned. And, people went to bat for you and you were reinstated. You can hold a grudge and randomly call out the mods or accept it and move on.

You're a great poster, and i love having you here, but you do play differently and get moderated differently. If you think current mods aren't treating you fairly, pm me.

Dude has replied at least once a month since November now trying to clown me for two takes I was wrong on and now is threatening me physically cuz I called him a clown. After crying for mod attention.

It was good fun for me, but I shouldnt be expected to lay down when the dude repeatedly has followed me, trying to clown me and now is playing virtual tough guy behind the keyboard.

You guys are both forum heavyweights and great contributors, so we let you do your thing. Which, in hindsight was derelict on our part - it obviously escalated at some point that we missed. So apologies to you both on that. Without digging thru the history, I'm gonna guess both of you feel it's the other one's fault, and you're probably both right.

Ideally, we just let it end here and move on. If it starts back up, we'll be quicker to intervene.
Comedian likes when I use the blue font, but, I hope to not have to.

Oh I brought that up bc I don’t think the mods should need to step in bc someone called someone else a clown or a neanderthal or some mild insult.

If some rando thinks you’re a clown who cares?

Agree, except seemed to be a big pretty big deal when I got permabanned for calling out ridiculous sexist behavior, and it also it ain't no **** to let a former mod talk personal **** to a guy who would wreck him but is ducking that **** by request.

I don't want any of this moderated, personally. Only seems to apply to me, though.

Pick a lane.

You called for Mods FWIW.

There's a much easier way to do that.

The internet was a mistake for sure.

I've noticed that the Celtics are a much better team when they are winning games. Not so good when they are losing :-/
