There is no right time. When you finally wait for the "right" time. . . . her right time might have already past.

@Onyinye2, home game my ass! I recall some were played in LA and others played in Boston. It wasn't all played in boston. The Celtics def. deserved to win, what? It was their year. They hadn't won in years. Well, you got me on the name thingy. I ain't a die-hard fan. I started watching B-ball because of my brother. And I fell in love with Rajon Rondo. LMAO! I don't even care about the rest except a few like KJ, PP, Allen, etc but to be honest, I don't know all the names of the Celtics players. How do you expect me to know those of TX? LOL

Well as you know, everything is bigger in Texas. . . . so i don't expect you to know all the players. There are just too many good ones to count. Rondo is just pure eye candy. Just sexy from head to toe with a great crossover. Yeah i was talking about the last game the Lakers played and it was a home game to the leprechauns. So of course they are going to favor them when it comes to fouls and such. I have been a basket ball fan since i was 4 years old. In fact basket ball is my first love. I have been playing since i was ten.

@Onyinye2, Yao?? Isn't he the 'over-tall', Asian player? LMAO! I don't know who scola is. I gotta watch it harder. They're not popular! *My bad*

@MandigoII, I get what you're saying. But I bet you that if they had gone for it, it would most likely not be counted and labelled as 'foul'. Just like the Lakers Vs Celtics in the championship, everything the Celtics did was 'foul'. It got me sooo mad. Lakers commit their own foul but nobody says anything. Well, luckily, the true winners took the gold at the end of the day - Celtics. In this case, Nigeria is the under-dog and they played their part. But unfortunately, they didn't win.

Chiogo you know that is BS!!!! The Celtics had the game in their favor, it was a home game. So all the fouls went to them. Lakers deserved that win so i know they are going to come in to this season hungry. Celtics are going to be victims of the Lakers curse. Just ask the Pistions. How do you not know Scola? Mayne you aint no true fan. I know all the players on the Celtics even the ones who play no games.

tope2000:
i think its the other way round actually

LMAO!!!!

During a fast break, he can get down the court quick, but he hasn't acquired that natural form in him. So when he tries to make threes on a fast break, it usually doesnt go in. But if he can train himself to balance himself and train is body to that perfect form. . . . what wonders he can do.

@Onyinye2, Wha wha?? Who are the lephracuns(whatever that means)?? When it comes to my sexy hunks, Rajon & kevin, I get down for my team! Don't even go there, LOL! You stay in TX and supporting Lakers. Your city got no good players??

Oh lol. . . that is just a name folk gave to the Celtics. We call them the Leprechauns. Any ways. . . i have to admit 89% of your team goes in the sexy category. Yeah i support the Lakers and The Dynamic Houston Rockets. Of course we got good players. Did you not see Yao and Scola in the Olympics?

[quote author=dtw_sola link=topic=163117.msg2696918#msg2696918 date=1219504518]If you take into account representation, Jamaica is the #1 performer in these games. They sent only 59 athletes, as opposed to the US and China whom both sent nearly 700 olympians[/quote]Last time i checked. . . Team USA had 31 golds. . . . and Jamaica has only six.

Blah Blah Blah. Like they are God's gift to women. Please. Nigerian men are in the same category as any other man. Each culture/race/nationality/ethnic group has something special . . . . . so to put Nigerian men overall is just propaganda at its worst.

Oh yeah. . . . Chris Paul has been proving himself time and time again. He uses his height as an advantage. He does ill crossovers and jumps the highest for rebounds. And he got speed. He is quick on his feet and always ready for a fast break.

@Onyinye2, it's not only a Nigerian thing. Americans do it too. I'm referring to your comment about Nigerians not supporting their players, and hence making the players move to other countries.

Yes, they tried but criticism helps people to improve. Ofcourse, we all know they tried their best but obviously, their best wasn't enough. I'm sure these players don't even want to hear they did good, they know they could have done better.

I remember when New england patriots(my team) lost to NY giants. Well, I'm not really a fan of much sports save for B-ball. Only reason I call it my team is because it's a boston team, they're all my teams! Anywayz, at school the next morning, most teachers were so pissed, they took it out on us. Same as college professors(my siblings told me). My male friends who are die-hard fans didn't even want to talk about. It was all fun for me but immediately I brought it up, they all go 'please, I don't want to talk about that'. And I was like 'shoot'.

So, anywayz, it's not a Nigerian thing. It's what real fans do. With time, they'D get over it. LOL!

I love the Lakers with all my heart. So when they lost to the lephrachuns. . . . it hurt. I was pissed, that was their Championship and it was tooken by the green team. But you didn't see me going around on a hunger strike or taking it out on nobody. I guess i have been an athlete long enough to know that you should learn from your mistakes and be proud of your performance, and come back betta, fasta, and stronga.

savanaha:
I having been watching the Olympic on NBC and whenever Usain ran one announcer would say he hopes he would just run and not show boat. The only reason America is concerned with Bolts show boating or what not is because they are not the ones impressing the world with such an amazing speed. Haters

You obviously didn't watch Great Britain's performance in Men's 4x400. . . . if you call that us hating on them. . . . you obviously don't know what Sportsmanship is.

[quote author=Brash! link=topic=161653.msg2696825#msg2696825 date=1219502670]i thought it was two, medal tables has two listed![/quote]We won Bronze in

Taekwondo
4x400 meter relay
Long jump

We won Silver in

Soccer.

savanaha:
We finally got a medal? Praise the lord, I was looking at the Olympic stats and Nigeria had zero medals. Even if they get another medal and its a broze that better than going home empty handed

Nigeria had already won three previous bronze medals. . . . . now they can add a silver medal to that.

Well lets make Boozer the fall-guy then i don't really blame him though as he isnt getting too many minutes and he isnt the most dominant man on the paint either.Dwight Howard seems to be stealing some of his shine[/quote]Well yeah. . . . Boozer aint really one of the majors. Dwight Howard is a real asset on that team. He gets the rebounds, takes open shots, and shots accurate free throws. But i must admit the team would be nothing with out LeBrone, Kobe, and Dwayne.

idupaul:
Madam mature, why are u insulting me just because i choose to have an opinion, they played well to u and they didnt play well enough to me, wats the fuss bout that. sha it shows your ready to settle for any thing at all with your loser nature. go jo

Im done posting at/with/towards you because you aint even worth it. You can go on a hunger strike for all i care. Why you are grumbling running around with tears in your eyes, i'll be happy and proud ABROAD.

The Guys the a Hell of a Job. I mean they only gave Argentina ONE goal. Argentina is known for murdering there competition. . . . but not this game. Good job you guys, I am extremely Proud of my country and its players.

KarmaMod:
Is the nastiness really necessary, oyinye?

Did he insult YOU in any way? Just because he's not defending the mediocre performance?

Yeah he did insult me . . . . . just ask him.

idupaul:
This them try factor is really killin nigeria, the perfomance today was not stellar at all and can only be described as mediocre, why must we lie when the truth is clear.

Just shut the phuck up Paul. Seriously i mean you talk as if you can even compare with any of these players. I know 10 year old spanish kids that will toast you. So just shut it. Gosh your so freakin childish. You so called "Real Nigerian". Ekwensu.

For real you guys are just a shame. Nigeria did great and yet you still have pity for them? No wonder majority of these Nigerian players leave for other countries. There is no support. All yal can do is blame and be angry. One of yal even said you haven't even eaten all day cause you so mad. This is why Nigeria will never compete with other countries in medal count. With all this blame game and pity. . . . . i wonder if yal understand the Greatness of the game. Yal talk as if yal were in the game. . . . yal would have been any help. This is truly a pity and disgrace.

All those not proud of our men. . . . think of it like this:

How many African Countries can say they BEAT TEAM USA in soccer?
How many African Countries have reached as far as Nigeria?
How many African Countries can say they murdered Belgium?
How many African Countries have won any many medal in Olympic soccer?
How many African Countries can only give Argentina who average three goals/game only one?

big father:
@Thor
Am sure you are a ghanian and i can't see you guys winning an ordinary plastic medal ( that is if the thing dey sef ) so why the beef ?

Don't bother yourself about Thor, he says All Nigerians are lazy and corrupt.

LMAO!!!! This is the funniest thread ever!!!

Of course what do you expect its an all-star team nobody wants to get outdone by their team-mates they are all stars with big egos and no one would want to be the fall-guy[/quote]If so, why isn't Boozer on his A-game? He hasn't been doing much of anything. Or been proving to that coach of theirs that he should have more game time.

Mayne my father was pretty upset. He really wanted Nigeria to bring home the hardware. But he is still proud of his home country. Nigeria tried but couldn't get passed that Messi. He his truly an asset to those Argies. But i must say, it was obvious who the favorites were. Every little touch on those Argies, they would fall on the floor like spinless trees. But Nigeria just keep on playing how they knew. . . . . and that is Nigerian Football. I am indeed proud of my people . . . we deserved gold but i will accept the silver.

StephenP:
LOL!! But I wasn't all that when you fell for it and were all over me right? 

Fell for what? Fell from your stench. . . . yeah. All over what? All over my Glade fragrance candles.

StephenP:
Oh yeah . . . I was there because that girl wanted me to help her find a bra that fitted her cup size and a pair of g-strings that fitted her butt. A lot No more, no less  .

See. . . . you are a closet Freak and Opportunist.

StephenP:
Like you ain't one of them

Uh huh. I aint no project chix. . . . that surely aint me.

StephenP:
How many times are we gon' go through this? I keep trying to make you presentable in public but you choose to bask in your BO. Why Onyinye why?

Oh okay. Now i know you are trippin. Cause im always on top of my game. You must have me mistaken with one of your project chix

StephenP:
I wasn't just gon' throw it away and leave her for the next man. Back to the point though, did the Chanel perfume and shaving sticks I sent to you through first class mail get to your door?

Such an opportunist. Anyways. . . oh yes i got your so called "gifts", yeah i regifted and gave them away. My body is too good for Chanel.
