    For stoked GAME THREAD!!

    Loving how much flow there is to this group. Offense moving well, defensively good rotating and help. What a difference coaching and scheme will make.

    For stoked GAME THREAD!!

    Nice spacing finally. Just don't fall in love with the 3 ball. Enjoying this quick tempo offense. So glad that Al-fense is a thing of the past.

    Already wishing that Burks was out there. He is the only one not scared to shoot... my 2 cents

    Any of you gonna make a game thread? Preseason game 1

    It seems like the whole team is willing to put forth their best effort. It seemed like they were focused and energetic. What a refreshingly entertaining game!

    Any of you gonna make a game thread? Preseason game 1

    It looks like the team has bought into what Snyder is selling. And I love it!!!

    Mormons lol

    See Colton's post on page 2. Most Mormons would understand what that pic is trying to make fun of, but as Colton has stated, the meme gets it wrong. I have never heard of "spirit orbs", although there is absolutely a belief in a pre-earth life (or pre-existence as it's commonly called). And...

    lol restaurant threathened to be sued by atheist.

    I actually live in Winston-Salem. I think that I will make a trip to this restaurant (which I've never heard of before) to show my support of their business. I have a problem with these advocacy groups that threaten litigation to people all over the country. They have no interest in...

    Uplifting Stories

    That is awesome. It's nice to hear about thoughtful people. I wish that there was a bigger emphasis on good news in the media. So many negative things gain a lot of attention... what if it was different?

    No I do not. But if you're going to make the accusation, perhaps giving it some context might quell the defensive reaction a little. So let's challenge it, but attempt to keep accompanying malice to a minimum. And I believe that I acknowledged that in the above post from where you are...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    Okay, so the intent of your posts was misunderstood by me. You're an intelligent person, I'm sure you can see how I could make the conclusion that you were directing your criticism at me rather than at my remarks. Can we agree on the point that no one LIKES to be called a racist? Whether...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    My reaction was, in part, due to the way that I was piled on over several pages of posts by several posters. I made a couple stale attempts at being witty and was the recipient of at least a few derogatory remarks. I did not realize what I was igniting. If you think that Kicky was "peaceable"...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    I have neither the time, nor the desire to try and reason with someone who is angry and ready to pass judgement on me based on poorly constructed posts in an athletic-team related forum. I could type all day long explaining and defending myself in an effort and prove that I am not what you...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    Do you seriously have a problem with me explicitly addressing my stance? I wrote 2 sentences, big explanation, right? I must be insecure, right? Read it how you want, I have no control over your perceptions. Between you and Kicky it's become a discussion about semantics instead of the...

    Duly noted, thank you for your informative reply. It doesn't change my opinion of rap (as something to listen to), but it does tell me something that I didn't know before. :)

    Jeremy Evans posts cryptic tweets about Nurses

    As a nurse that worked at an IHC facility (McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden) I can tell you (from experience) that the nurse-patient relationship hinges on too many things to assume anything about Jeremy's comments. Insensitive nurse vs. Entitled patient Nurse who can't do their job well vs...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    Kicky obviously has his own point of view with this regardless of what I intended to say. He is heavily implying that because I don't like rap music I must be a racist... which is totally and utterly absurd. It's like saying I hate Europeans if I'm not into classical symphony. Those things do...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    C'mon, stop putting words in my mouth. Revealed myself as what, exactly? Does musical taste make me a racist or bigot? I simply don't like listening to rap. The sounds, the subject matter, the simplicity of the musical structure (i.e. sampling other musicians because you don't have the skill...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    I see what you're saying Stoked. That isn't a great example. I just think it seems fishy to denounce the use of a term and then spout it out every day. If you want the use of that term to go away, stop using it yourself. What I'm really trying to understand here (from people who are more...

    Sure, pick something out to redirect the conversation as you please... Purely a reference to my personal musical preferences, nothing more. How about you take a stab at answering my direct question about why racism only applies for victims who are African Americans? I'm genuinely interested...

    Looking for genuine discourse re:Jay-Z/NBA

    As it should be called. I love what Morgan Freeman had to say about racism. Can't we just call crime crime? And ignorance ignorance? Why does race HAVE to be an issue? If we are all supposed to be equals, can't we begin by treating each other that way?
