Babb!!! This is Paras. I deleted Facebook and have wanted to get in touch with you to see how you've been. If you've got a minute and want to catch up, shoot me an email at pkumar15 at berkeley dot edu!

Ya'll are lucky to read Babb's work. Dude's by far the funniest and most real judge to grace Lincoln-Douglas debate.

heats rule!! admit it!!

Your argument with lebron being number 2 and durant being number 1 is biased. I suggest if you even want to argue that you should provide evidence instead of just stating claims.

care for a fan add?

I thought your article on DRose was well balanced and thought out. I will be looking for your byline in the future. I wish that b/r would include the name of the author with the source on their headlines.

You're quite welcome. And thanks!

Hey Stephen, I've been reading a lot of your stuff lately in quality reviews, and I like your style. I hope you continue to contribute throughout the season; you provide a unique insight. Adios.

Hi Stephen - thanks for the reply. It makes sense and I appreciate your thoughts on it. Looking forward to your next piece.

I'm curious to know your background. Your NBA report today was outstanding. Ken Berger is a former co-worker of mine at Newsday. I'm sure he appreciates the plug.

Hi Stephen - I haven't been on this site long. However, the articles that I have read written by you, regarding the Knicks, have come across, IMO, fair. However, this last article where you kind of bash them for their age seems a little hateful. I think some people responded negatively to the last article you did about not believing Melo regarding his comment of sacrificing scoring for the sake of the team. I think some people didn't read your article but attacked it based on how the title was worded. It seems as if you got upset at that and have decided to just go on the attack. Dude, no need to let those people that don't read get to you. It was a good article. However, this last article on their age is certainly not your best work. You seem best when you are objective and not vindictive. I'm just saying, IMO, you seem/ed better than that.
