you saw him in both

 

and you are asking me?

 

i don't have those kind of powers....

 

and yeah, you had to be there because Doc will get no love at all going forward

 

on the other hand, Dwight Howard will be worshiped 100% in about 15 years based on his stats.

 

 

I thought by your comment that you had to be there to understand meant you were and thought I was not.

 

There was an ABA team in Dallas called the Dallas Chaparrals which became the San Antonio Spurs.  My Dad sold the printing to them so he got us free tickets a lot.  We went down to SA to see him once with Geroge Gervin.  He was an amazing player as well.  We went to a lot of games.  We saw them play against the Dr. several times.  Then they moved and later the Mavericks started up in 1980.  I watched his 76er games when they were on TV.  Then I went to several Mavericks games vs 76ers and the Dr.

 

He was better IMHO.

Ice is another forgotten great of many moons ago

 

bill Simmons mentioned a great who was known to ingest a lot of coke before a game and easily dominate and was branded with a known nickname about his habit, but I’ve never seen the name given 

 

GG eventually had some issues....

 

Sugar was another nickname possibility but there was no mystery about those named Sugar.

Talked about this on @ReliableSources - these efforts should be commended - but what will actually move the needle is greater news literacy - starting in school - and more on the ground education campaigns that show how and why reporters do what they do http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/tv/2018/08/12/will-these-editorials-make-a-difference-rs.cnn.html …

 

 

 

It amazes me that these people still think the issue with media distrust is with the audience.

This pervert also said it's ok for your 12 year old daughter (if you have one, but I mean anyone with a 12 year old daughter) to have them see a man's dick.

 

I am not for advocating firings or boycott's, but with a comment like that, this perv shouldn't have been allowed anywhere near a TV, radio or women for that matter.

 

How can anyone ever take what that guy ever says seriously?

This may be the most irresponsible thing I’ve ever heard from a news host. What Cuomo is saying here isn’t moral and isn’t right and you can tell that even he doesn’t quite believe the BS he’s shoveling because he cheats.

 

Let’s start with “all punches are not equal.” That’s often true as a matter of law. A punch or even a bullet fired in self-defense is not the same as one fired in an assault. The law tends to treat the aggressor more harshly for violating the peace in the first place and to respect the right of the victim to defend him or her self from the other person’s blows with reasonable force.

 

And here’s where Cuomo is cheating. He asks “when someone comes to call out bigots and it gets hot, even physical, are they equally wrong as the bigot they’re fighting?” In his scenario, both sides are fighting and no one is really responsible. So his answer is that the racist people are more wrong in a moral sense. My answer to the same question is: It depends on who actually started the fight. The person who threw the first punch is the person who turned a protest into a riot. And if that person was from Antifa, then they are in the wrong.

 

That doesn’t mean the Nazi’s on the other side are good people. They’re not. I’m not defending racists except in this narrow sense: In America, everyone has the right to speak without being punched. And because that’s the line, it matters who crossed the line to violence first.

 

The problem with defending Antifa is that they openly admit they intend to cross that line as a guiding principle of their activity. It’s not something that just happens when things get hot as Cuomo frames it. Antifa are not showing up for protest and possible self-defense. They are striking first in order to silence people. That’s wrong and it’s dangerous to suggest that maybe it’s not wrong because the people getting punched probably had it coming.

 

In any case, this has nothing to do with what happened this weekend in Charlottesville or Washington, DC. Antifa members were getting physical with reporters, not Nazis. They did this with zero provocation except that some reporters were filming them. Chris Cuomo should know this but he apparently does not: Antifa consider photos and video grounds for violence too, because those things endanger the anonymity that gives them the freedom to break the law in other ways. It’s not just petty bad behavior, the harassment of the media is part of their whole modus operandi. They rough up reporters so that they can punch Nazis (and set fires and all the other things they do). Their treatment of reporters and their hatred for the police is part of the package you’ve just labeled as being the side of good, Chris Cuomo.

 

Again, I’m not denying the racists are moral scum. But if the racists march (and make fools of themselves) without getting violent, that’s legal. If Antifa shows up to attack them and the police defending them and the reporters covering them, that’s both illegal and immoral. The fact that Antifa hate bad people doesn’t make up for that.

Oh REALLY.

 

Someone tell me again how the media isn't dangerous?

 

The only disagreement, I think, comes from wanting to clarify the statement. "The media" isn't dangerous as an entirety. But elements/Individuals within the media, or exerting control on the media, are absolutely dangerous. Cuomo is one such individual. Zucker, head of CNN is as well. Individual elements can be exposed, prosecuted, and otherwise handled without decimating the entire fourth estate.

 

Of course that last bit is difficult because even the members of the media who aren't dangerous rally around their own when they hear "the media is the enemy" - as they should. So, it falls on the people pushing for change/exposure of those dangerous elements to be very precise with our language. The media has a very important role to play, and it's certainly true to a large extent they have failed in that role especially of late. But we can't throw out the baby with the bathwater.
