I've never gotten "warriors nuthugger" from him.

"Warriors nuthuggers" don't predict the warriors to lose a series in which they're favored to win in 5 games lol.
I'm not the only one on here that has gotten this impression...bottom line--you like him, I don't.

Just got back from a wedding, and at work for first time in a week. I will be very unproductive as I'm nervous/excited AF.

Dumbass story on the radio this morning....a local Mayfield Thursday night (only night of the week they play) softball league has games scheduled for tonight at 9:30pm. One of the players of one of the teams called the commissioner to say "this is being rescheduled, correct? The NBA Finals start tonight." The commissioners response was "the other team wants to play. You can either forfeit or contact them to see if they want to reschedule. If you call me by "x" time, you won't be assessed an umpires fee."

I guess one of the players texted the coach of the opposing team with no response. Who does this? Must be some hardcore softball players?

As a side note, no other games would fall on a Thursday until game 6, which could be a closeout game, so they'd have to deal with this again.

Would you guys just take the loss or go play softball and miss watching the game on a legit source (an Iphone is NOT a legit source, btw)?
I'm skipping that softball game. I know a lot of people take softball REALLY seriously, but I just can't.

But let's not make him out to be some cavs hater in the media. Especially when he's been saying for months that he thinks the cavs are going to beat golden state.
Yeah, didn't he pick Cleveland at the very start of this NBA season? I don't necessarily care for him that much, but he never struck me as an actual Warriors nuthugger.

He did. And I've never gotten that either from him. Vball just really hates him :)

Is this from the same source that claimed they broke up once a month all season long?

I am ambivalent. I do think it's hilarious that people hate Khloe and act like she is some curse. They dated the entire season and Tristan is just fine.

Three or four different sources but they look sketchy. And I know, I laugh every time I go to the grocery story and am standing in the checkout line. One week, Blake Shelton & Gwen Stefani are splitting up, yesterday she's suddenly pregnant with his kid and they're getting married? See the same stupid shit with Kardashian/Thompson. Whatever happened to the good old days when the part boy/part bat was the main headline?

Everyone I know, who has met her at Cavs games, say that she's nice as Hell and very polite....willing to pose for selfies with just about anyone. The Kardashian Curse thing has been going around for awhile. I think it was one of her sisters who created that.

I'm okay with someone hating him. Golic seems to these days, after he announced he was leaving the show.

It just stems from the other people who have been "burned." Tris has been largely unaffected, yeah, but the list of people with unfortunate turns after getting involved with that family is enough to make fans nervous, I guess.

My initial post about it was more in jest than anything. I'm not really a jinx/superstitious type of person.

Yeah, I didn't mean to suggest you were. I'm not, either. But I see the pattern that causes those more prone toward such beliefs to be.

Nah, I didn't take it that way. I was just piggybacking on what you were saying.

Ah, yes. The one where we blame women for the poor choices men have made. Hard pass.

Nobody here is saying it's legitimate.

Also, the whole "poor choices men have made" part seems to be a bit of a broad brush. Players who have dealt with injuries or not keeping up with an adapting game might have more to do with skill level and bad luck than poor choices.

Kris Humphries has always been a ham & egger. Even if there was a "Kardashian Curse" I don't think that Kim could've made him much worse, talent-wise. LOL

I am mostly referring to the Lamar Odom and Scott Disick stuff, not the injuries.

ANYWAY....GO CAVS!!!
