I hate Locke

[HighlandHomie]

Locke was intolerable tonight during the Q&A. Again, another media mope who wants to be a comedian. Honestly, Bill Oram and David Locke are two of the most unfunny people I've ever heard attempt humor.

Two beers was not enough to handle the ******** Locke was spewing on the mic tonight.

If Locke did post on these boards I'd imagine everything would be in CAPS with a bunch of exclamation points.

Countonbuckets?

Countonbuckets?

Lol. Not even Locke could be THAT bad!

I agree with flc. Locke is irritating as hell, but often provides good statistics. Of course, he often twists data to fit his preconceived conclusions (or to conform to the "company line').

Provide a few examples. Should be easy to do if he does it often.

Hello Mrs. Locke.

Hello Mrs. Locke.

That's a good one...

I listen to Locke nearly every day, and I disagree that he twists statistics to toe the company line. Instead, I find him to be pretty damned honest when critiquing players. The one area he hesitates is when it comes to critiquing coaches and the organization itself. He is a Jazz employee, after all, so he does have to walk a fine line at times. I think he does an excellent job doing so. His content is very informative, and I learn a lot about the Jazz and basketball listening to him. I thoroughly enjoy his podcasts.

Honestly, though, can we stop with the "I hate David Locke" threads already? It seems we get a new one every few months. It gets old. Can't we just concede that some of you don't like him, and some of us like him, and some of us are kind of like and don't like him and just move on?

Jimmy has a point. This thread should be stickied.

If David Locke did a broadcast in the woods with no one around then I'd say ****ing brilliant, I hope he stays there so no one hears him.

Can someone rationalise the way he pronounces Stauskas? I don't understand it.

I actually really enjoy Locke. He usually has a pretty realistic attitude. He's got a good pulse on the league, and sure gives the company spin every so often, but I enjoy his broadcasts and tune in to tip off occasionally.
