Jesus you're a master of projection. You might as well have just said "Chicago Fans aren't listening" or "some people say they aren't listening..."
Pretty much all you have to add 'round here anymore. Casting yourself as an audience proxy of sorts and telling us what 'the world' thinks/does because you do it or think it.
Nah - I don't think I'll take my queues from you. There's been plenty of substantive back and forth in this thread. You're just not a big fan of the fact that your particular side of this argument sucks badly. I've listened to it. I've digested it. And it's been wholly unpersuasive.
Why? Because it's a bad argument. From a lousy messenger.
Seems to be the theme of the last couple days...
I enjoy how in like 15 years we've had like 5 disagreements and now because our political thoughts are different, you think I'm this giant pile of garbage.

Isn't that a good thing? Doesn't that mean that in some ways, the players' tactics are working?

Funny because I’m pretty sure you’ve posted more in this thread the last couple of days than you have the entire fucking playoffs.
Meanwhile, people like me and DJ have posted in the NBA threads for years. I’ve rarely seen you talk basketball if at all.

Fuck I hate politics.
Someone's unaware of the concept of a necessary predicate.
Hint: For one to have 'divided' something, it must first have to have been.....what?
But yeah - nobody's listening. Been directly spoken to...but nobody's listening.
I DID MATH IN THIS THREAD, BUEHLER! POORLY CONTRIVED AND VICIOUSLY STRAINED SEMI-SOUND MATH!
I mean what the fuck? We law talking guys do what we do specifically because we hate math and have too much pride to go to business school. These are the efforts I've made in this thread. I did math. That's a big deal.

Yeah, you've both been wrong about NBA stuff for years too. Outclassed, per usual, by me.

I have been shit-talking Lebron on this board for a fucking decade.
I do not have to burnish my 'fuck lebron' bonafides here.

Enjoy the echo chamber.
You realize one doesn't dive into the middle of a dog-pile and be the loudest voice in opposition to an idea because he's looking for an echo chamber, right?
By and large I've not even responded to people that agree with me - I've directly addressed those that don't.
That's...uh...not an echo chamber.
My issue with you has been this limp-wristed crap you've pulled over the last little bit where you just mealy mouth this 'well I don't think this...but OTHERS do....' crap before you spend the next several days making it very clear you DO think it.
Fine. Think it. Take ownership of it. Doesn't mean I'm gonna think you're any more accurate, but I'll at least have a greater appreciation for how you comport yourself in debating it.
Or don't. Keep doing this. I don't expect my 'approval' to matter one whit to anyone on a damn football board. But if you want the explanation for the shift in my perspective, there it be sir...
