It's exactly as Stefan said. You're right that Villa deserves a lot of criticism. The reason he goes largely ignored is that there are no jackasses in the forum talking about how great and underutilized he is. Unfair? Probably, but you bring it onto Bynum yourself.

You have hurt the one you love.

[Mel Kiper Jr]

It's kind of how Newman drew attention to Stuckey/Amir/Samb/Delfino.

[detroitsportsfan]

I'm a "jackass" because I stick up for the underdog? I'm a "jackass" because I stick up for a guy that I think can play? I'm a "jackass" because I'm sticking up for a guy who seemingly always gets criticized when he plays badly but rarely gets praised when he plays well? So be it then. I'd rather be a "jackass" than what some of you guys are.

You are not a jakass

but you are defanning fun out of many threads and are derailing many useful analyses. At least, that's a perception. And in some instances, perception is reality. Let it go from sometimes.

[detroitsportsfan]

Perception is everything. That's for sure.

Even when I don't speak of Bynum or Nazr or somebody else I've defended in the past, somebody else brings it up to start an argument again. It gets to be a bit too much. A lot of retards in this forum. I'm thinking of not even going to the new forum. I've just about it had it with some of the losers here.

[Stefan S]

It's not someone elese. It is KStat.

Then one of you adds gasoline to the fire
the whole forum goes bananas and anti Pacers Digest
because everyone is bored and frustrated.

So, people start talking to each other politely
using terms like moron, idiot, imbecile, and similar
and repeating this ad infinitum.

I officially propose to call this sort of activities defanning
allowing double spelling, i.e.,
"a" i.e.., defanning to celebrate you, the DS fan, as one of the main initiators and perpetuators of this approach driving fans away from any serious discussions with you (kind of like "forshing" celebrates Forsh)
and also with "u", i.e., "defunning", because it kills fun.

Funny that you get upset over being called a jackass, but you then proceed to say the forum is full of retards and losers. I've also been called an idiot by you on multiple occassions with no provocation. Maybe it's not everyone else that's the problem?

To clarify a bit more, we're in a thread with Bynum in the title. He's obviously going to come up, whether from supporters or detractors. If you read my last pre-jackass post, I actually agreed with you that Villa should get as much, if not more criticism, than Bynum. Jackass or not, my point stands. You perpetuate the Bynum "hate" as much as anyone else does.

Again, you've insulted me and others numerous times without being personally insulted first. I don't appreciate being called an idiot or a moron simply because I disagree with your opinion, so I don't feel particularly bad for calling you a jackass. When you stubbornly continue to go thread to thread spouting "Fool's Gold," even 4 years later, I think jackass is an apt descriptor, particularly when you try to play innocent and blame the "retards and losers."

[hack]

To be fair, I've not called DSF names but have been insinuating for years now that he's not really quite able to piece it all together on the basketball front.

[detroitsportsfan]

That sounds worse than even calling me a name. That's just pure mocking. That's elitist. Like you're up there somewhere, floating on an elitist cloud, some kind of forum deity and I'm down here somewhere, a mere peasant, with misconceptions of the sports world. Like I say, it's all perception.

[hack]

I perceive that the Lakers are the champs.

[Big Jerm]

Now I'm really confused. Am I the elitist, or is it hack? Neither of our posts sounded particularly elitist. We're both Fool's Gold according to you. Of course, categorizing people in a demeaning way doesn't come off as elitist behavior at all.....

[tin mad dog]

You're an Elitist in your head but one that really is Retarded , thus FOOLS GOLD.

Now it all makes sense. Thanks TMD. Oh, but you forgot to add idiot and moron. Give me full credit please.

[tin mad dog]

I gave you the credit that an idiot and moron deserves.

[Big Jerm]

Touche'. I appreciate the way that you did so in a non-elitist manner. Well played, sir.

[Stefan S]

[detroitsportsfan]

What is this??? Some type of elitist clan??? All For One And One For All. Let's gang up on anyone who has a difference of opinion. And stop using the term FOOLS GOLD. I specifically used that term as reference to Chris Webber. Go get your own term.

[Jeff Hause]

Gang up???? Everybody agrees but you. That's not a gang. It's a unanimous consensus -- aside from one lunatic...

[Mel Kiper Jr]

I think thats the part that you aren't getting. They aren't ganging up because it's a different opinion. They are ganging up because of what the opinion is.

Some of the stuff that you post is easy to disagree with.

[Big Jerm]

Copyright infringement! Musn't say FOOL'S GOLD!

[detroitsportsfan]

Only mention FOOLS GOLD if you're talking about Chris Webber. Otherwise, get another term.

[hack]

Well with the apostrophe in there it's not the same.

[Big Jerm]

Good point. My elitist grammar has saved me from a lawsuit.

I think it's still available, and your apostrophe is optional.

[Suhper Bowl]

Will Bynum had a good game tonight, still Will Bynum is Fools Gold.
That is what this thread is about right??

[Stefan S]

Maybe Will is Fool's Quick Silver?



After all, he is so mercurial.

[detroitsportsfan]

You guys need to learn how to read. Obviously, you don't know what FOOLS GOLD is. You need a seminar. Then, maybe you can become FOOLS GOLD CERTIFIED.

Charlie Tuna really is sorry these days.
