nah, it's just another idiot who, everytime the nba is mentioned, has to insult it. should i go into threads that aren't nba or nfl and mock those leagues solely because i don't care for them? what if said all college sports lack talent, and stated it to be fact? fact or not, it's immature and rude to keep insulting something when nobody asked you to be a troll and/or hijack the thread. and the fact that people mostly talk about non-pro on here has NOTHING to do with why you would come into every thread of a certain sport and leave ignorant comments.

Thanks for the contributive post.

Didn't you get your answer in post #2 and #3? You have the right to ignore what you don't want and simply discuss the question and answer at hand, or you can chose to attack people by using comments such as "idiot", "troll" and "leave ignorant comments".

I see what you chose. Pot = kettle.

Well, grunewar lives in Northern Va so I think his dismissive post has more to do with the quality of Wizards' basketball. In other words, why would anyone waste time watching the Whizzz?

I haven't watched more than 5 minutes of Wizards basketball all season and I live in a Wizards broadcasting market. I've even turned down free tickets.

Sorry I took this thread in the wrong direction. Was just having a little fun.

BNR is correct, I live in N VA and have been to many a Bullets/Wizards game over the years. They are so bad (read injured) this year, that tix are easy to come by. You can purchase floor seats (usually $145) for $20 (and I have). The Wiz are tough to watch though and they really need fannies in the seats.

Am I an NBA fan? I prefer College and HS myself, because pro athletes are pretty rich and spoiled for the most part (IMO) and the game is much ado about one-on-one, I prefer the team game.

But, I understand that we here in VA and DC have the “luxury” of having several pro sports teams in the area – and that can’t be said for all parts in the country. So, I like to take my kids to football, hockey, basketball, and baseball games when I can – just as my dad and grandpa took me. I DO enjoy the experience, for the most part (even the NATS and O’s sometimes) and it builds memories and bonding with my boys.

But hey, I used to watch Hogan's Heroes with my dad too!

Better send this before this thread gets locked!

I wasn't talking about that post, I was talking about the Bob Crane reference from mbyron; you know, the post that I quoted.

You addressed grune directly. The other 16 people (and grune) made no personal attacks against you. Negative comments about the NBA were the norm on here long before you started posting.

Many here know 1 or 2 NBA officials personally and have officiated current NBA players. You will notice that no one makes any negative comments about any NBA players or officials in particular. They ridicule the entity. Why does that bother you so much?

And if this upsets you then you must be blowing a gasket about the treatment women's and girls' basketball get in this forum.

On a side note, Mick, why did you shut down your own thread?
