About Stove »

Life long NY Giants and (long suffering ) Knicks fan living here in Bills and Sabres country. Watch the NBA religiously, to the exclusion of any other basketball except the occasional SU game. SU football season ticket holder for 15 years (did I mention long suffering?), I've seen every big SU football game at the Dome since opening night when Joe Morris returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown. Man oh man, there have been some memorable times there; Miami, VT, Pitt, WVU, BC every other year for most of it, Michigan, Penn State, Oklahoma, ND, Washington, Illinois, Florida, Nebraska and the rest.

I'm a pretty opinionated asshole at times, so this may just be the right venue for me. I'm going to start writing articles soon, focusing on the NBA, Giants and SU football. Stop back often and tell me where to get off.

FYI, The pic is me and Ken Norton at the Boxing Hall of Fame fights at Turning Stone Casino. I'm the white guy.

Dont tell me that my comments dont stem from a passion for my team and the game. Myself and a few others hapen to think it ridiculous that so many are pining for a receiver. You are the only one here who strayed from discussing football. You have absolutely no right to diminish my work as a community leader.

And for the record, you never ASKED me to "keep my comments respectful", you took a personal shot, then attempted to take the high road by saying your protecting this forum and its participants. Yeah right pal, the only one who disrespected anyone here so dont give me your crap about respecting the forum.

If you dont believe that harrison is a murderer, fine. But it is an ongoing case and I find it pretty ridiculous that any giant fan would want to have someone like that on their team.

http://www.midwestsportsfans.com/2009/01/marvin-harrison-shooting-second-source/

Theres your source. I do all my research and I also encourage MY COMMUNITY to do the same. Im sorry that you view me as a crappy community leader, er rather, diminished my status as such, because you believed something different than I. Like I said, looks like you cant handle some good old sports banter. No one here is upset but you.... And as for you attempt to let me know thta I should keep my comments respectful... Sounded pretty hypocritical to me

It is you who is making an ass of themselves by calling me out on other peoples work. They say wisdon comes with age, but you coulda fooled me prick

Steve,

Thanks for the kind words. My apologies on the point about the Celtics bench, I misread it and didn't realize that was what you were trying to say. Had i realized that I probably could have helped you clarify the statement just by changing one or two words.

Feel free to edit over my revisions in that section to make that point again. If you would like me to look at that section after to see if I understand it better (which means others would probably understand it better too, although there's a good possibility it made sense and I just blanked because it was early in the morning) I would be happy to.

Andrew
