Quick stuff (Wagner game - NCAAT)...

Like hell you haven't. The only times you show up on here is when you see a chance to bitch and/or make snide remarks about something that I've gone to the trouble of writing for the good folks here who appreciate it. Since you obviously don't appreciate it, how about doing this board a favor and just stay TF out of my threads?

Find one time I have called someone a slur in a post on this message board. You do know the difference in a what a slur is as compared to me calling you or anyone else an idiot, clown, dummy, stupid, or what every other thing we can think of.

You can keep up your hype man image for of Floheel if you want but he was out of line and you are wrong.

Is it possible to just discuss the Tar Heels without slurs or calling someone an idiot? Unlike most groups of randoms, we have one important thing in common (except the closet trolls) so we should be able to put aside politics, biases, racism, sexism, intolerance, etc and just talk about something we love!

I will commit to working on only attacking ideas and not people (with the exception of SDung) if peeps will join me! (I will even try not to get triggered by SDung if that is what is required to have civil discourse!) I really hate what is happening as we get inundated with noobs who want to bring their real-world issues with them into this space!

I think you're gay.
Find a board that caters to that lifestyle.

I am on your side of the discussion regarding EC but this sort of a comment hasn’t been acceptable in a public forum for many years…. It is Neanderthal and moronic at best, disgusting and downright offensive at worst.

After posting this reply I will be reporting it to the moderators

Caleb was a detriment to RJ because he took away so much usage from RJ. Not because of his skillset. RJ would have succeeded this year if you simply took out Love's usage and added a deadeye spot up 3 point specialist in the spot or an average replacement PG that didn't take up all the usage.

If Cadeau was a threat from the jumper, RJs numbers would be even higher as they can sag off him for double teams or clogging the lane.

Cadeau provides benefit to RJ but nothing more than any other average replacement PG in the spot.

Love and RJ are both high usage guards. And it normally doesn't end well when one clearly hasn't taken a backseat.

But to act like Cadeau is instrumental in RJs year is silly. The root is Love not being here, not Cadeau being here.

Last year everyone bemoaned how Bacot was hindered by poor entry passing and getting the ball into him on the block. Bacots numbers have actually gone down. If Cadeau was providing the boon, it would be seen in more facets. The fact is RJ has taken more usage that Love was taking so his numbers rose accordingly. If we had Love take more of a backseat last year or replaced him with Trimble, this would have been seen prior. We tried to put two primary scorers together instead of choosing one and filling the roles around it.

I disagree with this. EC has a ton of room to grow and learn and get better but he’ll be the first to say it, and HAS said it - often. You don’t find tha maturity in many freshmen.

And there is a ton of fight in EC. Hard to rank the players but o can’t think of anyone on the team if put ahead of him for fight and effort.

Finally - I believe every player on this team raves about ECs passing ability, vision etc. Like he’s the best they’ve played with. All the coaches and other team coaches say similar things. Are they saying that just to fluff ECs ego? I don’t think so.

EC makes his share of turnovers but I think his A/TO is better than we’ve seen in a while, and his numbers would be better if people were better at catching and finishing strong instead of fumbling or gong up weak. (Looking at you Mondo and especially J-wash).

You just called him basically any average pg. Which is slanderous/crazy/delusional IMO.

The problem is him and a few others here have been allowed to run wild and for lack of a better word bully people that don't agree with them.

If there a little trash talk and even some name calling is one thing but to use slurs to attack another poster is unacceptable.

The other problem on here is many peeps go into threads simply to trash peeps they don't like. FTH's comment is not acceptable in any civilized place in society but I do not see bullying at all. Instead of fixating on the past, let's agree to move forward with a few ideas:

1. If I join a thread, I do so with the intent to add to the discussion, enjoy it, or learn from it.
2. If I disagree with the opinions in the thread, I will intelligently refute the ideas and never attack the poster.
3. I will try to remember that the vast majority of peeps on here love the Tar Heels as much as I do.
4. Trolls suck arse and are scum who should not be fed or tolerated; pity them for their shallow, unproductive lives!

There are my humble suggestions and believe me, humility is not one of my strong suits!

Go Tar Heels; Beat MSU!

Don't you realize that in any debate once your opponent goes from refuting your offering attacking you on a personal level that you have won the argument? I get in these arguments all the time, some of them well known to be heated. Every time the other guy begins to try to take things on a personal level I know then and there, I got ya! Yeah, call it a personal failing if you will, I do at times take it personal right back at them, you know, human nature being what it is.

Hey dude, I get it, you are PISSED and when we get pissed off we really don't care if anyone else likes the terms we may use, guarantee ya for example you have shot back your GP replies, bet there has been no shortage of X-rated ones that you didn't post! LOL But you have to ask yourself, why do I come here, why this site? If you come here to see who is fighting who today and maybe engage in some of that I would suggest this may not be the best place for you to enjoy that? But if you come here for what I come here for, just to talk about one of my passions, UNC sports then spending time in a nasty argument with another poster that you would not even know if you passed him on the street? You let some one you do not know spend time in your own head rent free? TRUST me, I know, I get it, I struggle with that as well. But I know why I come to this place, I come here for the civil UNC discussion, it is the ONLY reason I continue to post here and no where else.

I will tell you this, I have NEVER, not one single time posted a single thing on this site or anywhere else, in well over 20yrs now of posting on message boards, not one single time have I EVER said a single word in a post I would not be just as eager to say face to face and most of the time I would PREFER to say it face to face. TRUE story, I had been posting on a UNC site for a year or 2 and got in to a really nasty back and forth with a duke fan, it got really heated. I lived in Columbia SC at the time, well actually Lexington next door to Columbia and I gave that guy that lived in the Triangle area the exact time that he could meet me face to face and he could pick the time to meet me face to face, I would be driving to Columbia SC just to meet that guy face to face, this al played out on the board for everyone to see. Know what, after agreeing on the time and place (behind the food lion in Clayton the next day at 6pm), I hopped in my truck and drove to Clayton, spent the night with a buddy of mine there and at 6pm the next day I was behind that Food Lion, dumb for sure but I was pissed and I was there and damn the consequences, no, he didn't show up, I waited 2 hours. I let this idiot that would not know who I was had we passed (I did fully describe my red F-100 step side short bed truck to him, loved that truck) on the street drive me to do something that stupid, the only fortunate thing is I didn't meet a guy with a loaded gun ready to shoot me? LOL I gave that guy that much control over me and my life, pretty darn stupid, yep, that actually happened. The hardest part was that LONG DRIVE BACK ASKING MYSELF WHY did I need to prove to the world just how stupid I could be. Why did I not just dust that clown off as meaningless to me because that was actually the case, that dude was not even a spect of dust to me unless I gave him the power to be more. So I ask you, what are you doing and why are you doing it?
