Openers

[Munson]

Only when I'm drunk icehole.


I shoulda got on here last night, that would have been a real good show

[Rome]

I drank about 100 bloody mary's then switched over to vodka/crans.  My tab was 17 bucks.  Not quite sure but I think my bartender miscounted.

And why would anyone pick the Sixers?  Jesus Christ what the farg is wrong with some of you?

[Munson]

Yeah I really don't see the appeal of watching the opening game of a playoff series of a team that even if they play their best, have absolutely 0% chance at the championship.

Plus watching basketball sucks.

[Rome]

IGY can claim racism all he wants, but it's an awful brand (pun definitely NOT intended) of basketball that's played there and that's why people in Philly don't give a shtein about them.

[MDS]

have you actually watched a sixer game, fatty?

they are really fun to watch and are easily the 5th best team in the east. which is amazing considering how awful they were last year.

[Rome]

Why would I watch something I have no interest in?   

[MDS]

i dont really care

just say i dont like basketball because im uncomfortable with the culture associated with it and be done

if you actually liked basektball like everyone else from philly youd really like this sixers squad

[Munson]

didn't take long for jewtard to fish with race


Basketball is fun. Watching basketball really is not. At all.

[General_Failure]

Baseball and hockey aren't a lot of fun to watch, either.

[Munson]

Baseball on the average day isn't. But the Phils now have 2 guys you have to watch pitch and 2 other guys you want to watch pitch.


Hockey is exciting as hell to watch...non stop action, physicality, fighting, dudes with ridiculous last names....good times.

[ice grillin you]

the MA influence on this board really is something special

[Rome]

i like basketball quite a bit.  i don't like the nba because the game they play sucks.  just my opinion, of course.

[Diomedes]

the NBA game is all about offense, and mostly offense driven by a star or two on the team. 

balanced team offense, defense, passing...these things are not highly valued in the NBA.

watching an NBA game is more like watching the Harlem Globetrotters routine (except the NBAers miss more), than it is like watching international professional basketball, or even college ball.

it's about showboating and trickery and "entertainment"

some people like team play and defense,  Some like alley-oop dunks, ankle breaking drives and chest slapping.

On this board, the latter call the former MA.

[MDS]

im almost certain diomedes hasnt watched an nba game since 1997.

@ rome you have to be 65 years old

[Rome]

yes, i'm at least 65.

and nba basketball is almost as boring as your tired farging act, mds, although if i had to choose between watching an nba game and seeing you thrown under a speeding 18-wheeler, i'd probably choose the former, if that's any consolation to you.
