Re: Comics
Never been a DC guy. I've always prefered the X-Men, but the last series I read was the Ultimates. It had some awesome arcs (and styles). For instance, the crossover with the Ultimate Avengers was outstanding, and many characters and relationships were smartly tweaked so it was quite fresh at the b...

Re: New Suns Fan
I'm just saying, most girlfriends I know wouldn't be searching obscure brand new internet forums to ask this question... why us, why here, why now? If it was someone who uses the site or frequents message boards, then maybe, but its not. There are plenty of better options to get the information requ...

Re: Welcome to the new site!
Thats schtick, not a personal insult. That's what i meant by it being a two way cycle. Its only personal if you take it personally. Its ones of his new catch phrases, and is applied liberally on other sites. Don't feed into it, because its irrelevent.

Re: Welcome to the new site!
Some people have too thin skinned, and can't appreciate an opposing view point or a sarcastic sense of humor. I guess I just don't see the same things everyone else does. Of course, thats nothing new for me, apparently. I think you just like wild cards, a little craziness, and a sense of danger. Wh...

Re: Welcome to the new site!
I WAS around for it all. I've been here since day 1. The situation now is downright civil and conversational compared to those days. Its not even in the same ball park. I see it as quirky personality and a devils advocate view. As long as it doesn't devolve into spam and parrotting, I don't see why ...

Re: What TV shows are you guys watching?
Yup, although Voight doesn't seem to be nearly as hardcore as Vic was. I saw the similarities again, with the rookie cops white female/black cop pair, too. Still, its watchable, and fills that nitch. Definitely, but it will never be as good. Do you watch SoA? Nah, it rubs me the wrong way. I watche...

Re: What TV shows are you guys watching?
Anyone else see "Chicago PD" as a rip off of the *other* Shield show? Loll Yes. The pilots were very similar too. Down to a team member being killed in the first episode. Just in a different way. Yup, although Voight doesn't seem to be nearly as hardcore as Vic was. I saw the similarities...

Re: Steve Nash - The Finish Line
I think they are going all in for Love, perhaps, or have another target, and just choose to go away from Gasol. I could have justified the Gasol trade in exactly the way you have espoused, but they apparently value the future versatility and financial savings over Gasol. Jury's out until we see what...

Agreed. Still, the thought still crossed my mind. Like EDC said, it could have been a test. Poke us with a stick, see what we do.

Re: Steve Nash - The Finish Line
Babby is a great lawyer and contracts guy, and it was a mistake ever giving him more responsibility then that. He was never a talent evaluator, and was never the problem. Blanks and his personal favorites, like Beasley, Brown, and Hunter, were the problem.

Re: Suns News: Week of 3/2-3/9
I'd say that isn't a troll post. Thats his opinion, and his personality, but not close to a troll post. Hopefully we won't have to deal with that part again, or at least any time soon. Colorful idioms and an opposing view point are okay, lets just keep things as civil as possible. I posted on this i...

Write more later, just wanted to say I am extremely offended by your comparison, but I will keep my opinions and my politics to myself.

Re: New Suns Fan
If it's a troll post, what's the point? There are many reasons people troll. Just asking an overly stupid question and laughing to yourself at the responses you get. It doesn't need to have a point. Thats why its trolling. Didn't say for sure this is happening, but it took me by surprise because th...

Re: What TV shows are you guys watching?
Yeah, it looks good, although I still don't get a "Barry" vibe from Grant, and it pisses me off at the miscasting of Iris West - I normally have no problem with changes for racial diversity, but it completely derails the entire *possibility* of Wally being done correctly before the show ev...
Re: Comics
I used to be huge into comics, but I fell out of touch in the mid 2000s. I was a 90s comic kid (grew up in the 80s) and was *really* into Batman with the Knightfall line, and spread out into GL, Flash and a couple others. I was one of the actual fans of Hal Jordan going all Anakin Skywalker on the C...

I wouldn't go quite that far, but I think this will work if there is balance... a give and take. And I don't just mean he gives shit and we take it. :D we're in our third decade since the AZCentral days. (90s, 00s, 10s). Time enough has passed where no one should be judging on the past. Dues have be...

Re: Welcome to the new site!
I've always lurked or trolled there; Mori posts occasionally, and there are a couple other Suns fans over there (Xylus i believe?) and the notoriety of Cubby/Thread. I keep tabs on the place, at least; Its usually entertaining in some form or another, and since its home to so many Lakers trolls, the...
