Did any of ya'll catch this article? Kai! I dunno what could warrant such a total beatdown, merciless ripping and complete destruction of poor RaSheed 

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/100407&sportCat=nba
Excerpts below . . .

Wallace is only a 35-year-old bench player on a pseudocontender that will lose in Round 1 or 2 of the playoffs. But it's been a decidedly unhappy regular season for a 50-win team. Forget about Kevin Garnett's balky knee or Paul Pierce's aching body -- there were damaging trade rumors, young guns (Kendrick Perkins and Rajon Rondo) rebelling against the old guard, legitimate alpha dog and chemistry issues, a coach who can't consistently motivate his team or settle on a rotation, ongoing rebounding woes and, worst of all, old legs. Only Rondo's individual brilliance made things tolerable.

-Sheed roped the Celtics into giving him an $18.9 million, three-year deal, made a big stink about breaking MJ's 72-win record and then showed up for training camp wearing a fat suit.

-Sheed likes jogging at half-speed. Sometimes I count to see how many consecutive possessions Sheed can pull off without crossing either charity stripe. His unofficial record is nine.

-Sheed doesn't rebound as much as debound. "Lazy" isn't a strong enough word.

-He always seems to be standing in the wrong spot.

-He constantly forgets to box out.

-His hops are long gone, so balls routinely bounce over his head to opposing players.

-Sheed makes me say the words, "Why won't we play Brian Scalabrine?"

-Sheed lists himself as 6-foot-11, but he's probably two inches taller than that.

-Sheed shoots this turnaround once a game. Sometimes twice if we're lucky.

-Sheed makes his coaches want to become TV analysts.

and just a tip of the article iceberg. Kai! this was brutal    did Sheed steal his lunch money?

Sagamite:
They should at least have shoved him out or carried him without his legs touching the floor out of their building. 

Look at the scraggeddy and skinny arse fool he brought as bodyguard. LWKMD

LOL  I thought I was the only one that noticed 

The host should've even left him, lets see what he would've done. That black woman could've even taken both he and his bodyguard combined, and the whole world woulda seen show, shior, they don't know we black women have been trained since birth

osaass:
Yes. The media certainly has a big hand in the direction of british politics. Remember the same sun newspaper swept tony blair into office in 1997. Blair used the media very well in remaining in power and winning 3 historical elections for labour.
Problem is there are too many right wing media out there. Apart from the daily mirror and the guardian there are hardly any voice for the left.

Is that really the case in the UK?

  It is the exact opposite in the US. The far left rules the media by far.

ElRazur:
@jesoul.

You do have a point. The UK media appears to get personal and just nasty. This can weigh and sway the influence and opinion of the public towards or against a party.

Exhibit A: MSNBC during the Bush years, Exhibit B: Fox during the Obama years. lol.

It seems like as far back as since I became conscious, the media has always been not just a barometer, but the driving force, for which direction the society will sway to. Which is why corrupt media = corrupt govt . . . or is it the other way round?

Sagamite and Beaf, make una take am easy now.

that situation , in Nigeria, would have turned into a free for all for sure.

The male host was just saying "touch me in my studio, touch me in my studio", in such a gentle voice as if he was begging the guy. If na naija, they'd have started attacking each other with chairs at that point.

If nothing at all they'd have started abusing and cursing the AWD fellow in their various local languages. The man go run comot from the place.

who has that kind of patience back home. Certainly not the majority.[/quote] 
Seeing it was an elderly white guy, the black host prob didn't want to knock him out lol

AWB rampage in the ETV Studios

AWB Secretary General almost beats up a lady in studio, Boers are deluded for real.

Just wow Is the dude for real? wow. Na so e be for SA these days?

ElRazur:
@thamemead.

I like the policy of the minor/lightweight parties, but I am not sure they can make a difference at this point in time.

In my opinion, there isn't much between the two main parties. I do however dread conservatives making it, as my sector will see a massive cut. (healthcare/nhs) .

The papers have chosen their political parties and while this appear to be a long tradition in the UK, I am of Tue belief that they should be neutral and be more objective.

This is a long standing tradition in almost every country with a "functioning" democratic system. Corruption is everywhere, you will be hard-pressed to find a truly objective media outlet - paper or tv or internet.

Lacrissa:
I really hope God forgives me. I just wish intimacy with your loved one not every tom, dic*k and harry, just your loved one wasn't bad. God knows I love him, though I still fornicate as in have intimacy with my loved one. Help

Lacrissa, see this topic already discussed at length

Does this make me a carnal christian?

^LOL . . . . when I first saw the thread title, I laughed cos I knew it was DS type of topic.

I hope you have finished writing your book, or else what are you doing here?

^wow at the recent conversation.

Nuclearboy, you are wise beyond wise and I thank you.

InesQor, you didn't have to go into all that again. I know you've already tried to explain urself several times on NL. But I do thank you for trying to defend me.

Tudor, in hindsight, I could've sent you a private message before outright deleting your post. For that I apologize. In the future I will make every attempt to do so first. And I do implore you to please, try to be cordial and respectful in your conversations with those with whom you disagree with or do not like. That is all I ask not only of you but other NLders. Thanks.

Now please, return to the topic of this thread!

lynxnoon:
my guy not so fast oh!!. . . . .since Hassan is dead the next turn will be finding out who Dana was working for and[b] as u all know another bomb threat is on the way [/b]

Gbam!

H2, me I no agree oh

chiogo:
Hehe JeSoul, did you just hear Doc say "Old age again. We're old." ?
The analyst was like "Not that old" after Doc's comment.

There are old people everywhere, it just seems like the Celtics specifically target the oldies when bringing new people. Like, I can tolerate the already-existing oldies but don't bring new ones too! Michael Finley was on his A-game tonight though. Wallace can be too, sometimes.

Nice win sha, can't complain.

Lol, nah I missed it. Doc is probably the coolest coach in my memory of Celtic coaches. Ray's and Finley's contracts are both up this offseason. It'll be interesting to see if they renew Ray, I know Finley is def gone unless he has a monster playoff run.

[quote author=Tonye-t link=topic=421491.msg5852813#msg5852813 date=1270726965] @ Jesoul,
Sister Mi, hope you know that to assume falsehood or tell lies are both sins . Pls I dare you with all humility to prove or expose me if I’ve got two/multi-personalities/id’s here . And do it with transparency with substantial proofs . And by the way, thanks for the prayers, I made it thru’ my exams successfully on friday. Cheers! [/quote]Tonye, you know you are one of my brother of brothers in spite of our differences . I have no intention of "exposing" anything lol. If you say it is not you, then I will take your word for it and leave it at that.

And in more important news Congrats! so when is the party? abi you think say my prayers were for free?

I second Repo Men.

For utterly sinister reasons.

noetic16:
I made no conclusions. All I did was to interpret what I read on the thread.

Your job involves giving bitter pills (deleting posts and recommending people for ban) but the least u can do is to carry the victims (in this case tudor) along. I dont think Tudor would have complained if he had been forewarned.

And looking at the post (on this thread) in question, I dont think to insinuate that mavenbox is inesquor constitutes an insult.

And you cannot see what was deleted from the thread. Lets us move on please.

Noetic, and I am sad that you would jump to conclusions.

I deleted several posts from tudor today that were insultive and I posted the reason why above - that is why I deleted them not because of anything else. Inesqor has openly admitted to be mavenbox several times so I'm not sure what the issue is.

toba:
Wait a moment guys with the bolded can u cast your minds back to something that happened between a 'man of God' and a 9yr old? Definitely Alfa Olabowale wants the reverse to happen with our dear moderator.

Hope u get the gist

Toba, please ehn, lets stay on the topic.

Speaking of granpas, what do you think Odom and Kobe will be in a few?

nuclearboy:
@Jesoul:

His 3rd son?    You want to marry a relic from the 17th century? Rather, he should promise you his great great great great grandson's third great grandson. Hopefully that descendant will still be able to consumate the marriage seeing as he'll be all of 85 or thereabouts.

Lol, kai! see yab  Where is Alhaji to defend himself ehn . . .

toba:
thnks got the gist in PM. Only that u guys dnt allow us send PM

It's not me now lol, na Seun be oga.

toba:
Thank u madam. As regards ogaga, i will never live the guy, he promised on a thread to kill me https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-425020.32.html see page 2. I told him to do so

Oga sir, it is taken care of .

Lailai i no go gree. Im interested too. Im single&comfortable. Very soon( in SEPT 2010) i will complete my doctorate degree of philosophy(PHD) like David. Dnt wait for the little boy. lol

Doctor of Philosophy? that's hot. I stand up, salute your highness lol. Make you dey drop some nice philosophic topics in this section now?

[quote author=jesus. link=topic=425020.msg5841692#msg5841692 date=1270569629]whats the meaning of this? u are threatening some one with attack, where e are the moderators?[/quote]Taken care of.

Ogaga and Toba please move on from that discussion and return to the topic of the thread. Thanks to you both

^ Redd is overrated.

The Bucks are a very good up and coming team. People would do well to recognize they are not the pushover they were past couple seasons. Even me I fear the Celtics to play them in the 1st rd.

Tudor you're getting all worked up over nothing.

Do you know Alhaji and myself are very very good friends? and that I am practically very good friends with many prominent muslims on NL? Have any of them ever accused me of wrong? You misunderstood this topic to be an attack, rather than the friendly chiding that it was. I was about to cheerfully welcome you back when I saw your name and I do so now.

This is the last I'll say on the issue so please, I sincerely beg you, move on. Thanks.

^^ A lot of words, but you didn't answer my very simple question lol.

JeSoul:
^^ okay Ogaga. Let us stipulate the above is indeed true. What has satan done for you? for the world that he supposedly loves?

mukina2:
i already told him that, the people on the Islamic forum are also asking about him. I do hope he comes back soon.

On top of that, he promised me his 3rd son for husband he think say I go forget?

mukina2:
Jesoul

its not him, he is really very busy.

If Mukina says so, then I believe it. If you're in contact with Alhaji please tell him he is sorely missed!

toba:
Its not so your royal highness

Hmm, okay oh. If you say so, I no go doubt you anymore toba. And pls ehn, take it easy with Ogaga

^lol I know you're not Jesus savior of the world. But I suspect you are "jesus." the new id that popped up recently . . . say it ain't so my fellow servant?

^^ okay Ogaga. Let us stipulate the above is indeed true. What has satan done for you? for the world that he supposedly loves?

Tudor, haywire for you? not on your life

toba:
Its this thread

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-419465.64.html

Exactly on page 3, i observed the same thing, but he denied completely. thank God a mod suspects same. I know virtually all NL Christians are intelligent

Cus we believe in Jesus In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.(COLOSSIANS 2vs3)

Toba you sef . . . I have been meaning to get your side. Talk true, are you not "jesus."?

I will not argue with you Tudor. Just try and be respectful, and refrain from accusations even though you disagree with others.

Ogaga, ^^ but satan does?

^these are the rules you broke:

especially

"NO PERSONAL ATTACKS OR PUBLIC FIGHTS
Nairaland is a discussion forum, and it is inevitable that disagreements with crop up from time to time.  Please be nice and respectful to other members at all times and do not resort to personal attacks, accusations, name-calling, and other unproductive forms of communication.

Keep breaking em' and the admin will have to lock you out. Voice your opinion without being insultive Tudor.
