Can we ban someone simply for never once having a good opinion?

Sounds like it's really good for BI. I'd imagine that each player would have a different definition of what a "good work environment" is.

It would have died on the vine without me. The boards been dead for a week. People don't respond to player adoration and worship. Especially for inane off the cuff comments. Your welcome..

Why don't you try it? Go away. You go out of your way to post the stupidest crap just to get attention.

I don't really care if he likes it or not. I have never seen any data to support that professional athletes need a great work environment to be successful or love their teams city. I'd prefer a more business minded approach.


In a market that is viewed as undesirable by just about everyone following the sport this is an insanely stupid take.

Well he hired Willie, so he gets credit. Sorry.

Idk. I'm not plugged into a lot of teams like I am the Pels. I know the Kings were absolutely awful for years, seemed to have turned it around.

I did for the past week. There were a few posts a day.

I am not saying I'm the one, but there needs to be some contrarions on this board. People keep running away people that don't agree with them. They just gang up and we get everyone saying the same stuff. It's not any good. There should be some back and forth, some people saying outrageous stuff.

We should be able to talk about tear downs, gutting the roster. Even if it doesn't make sense. At least people are talking and we are getting hyped up for this year, which is extremely crucial for the franchise.

I want all the big NBA hitters on the MSB to come back. But you guys keep running them off. Don't you see it?

Only if it's logical.

Disagree. There's a huge difference between someone not agreeing and someone making head scratchingly bad arguments that virtually no on else agrees with, that is not a contrarian take. It's just a bad take.

i agree with what you're saying, but your contrarian arguments usually have zero leg to stand on. We asked you yesterday several times to back up your argument with some logical explanation or stats, and you ignored that request.

I have people gang up on me for certain things i've said in the past that aren't always popular, but i at least try to back up my reasoning with some logic and stats.

This, that's summed up succinctly.

I'm not really talking about me.

I'm just talking about people with different viewpoints. Where are all the opposing fans? Guys like Boom or the Ducks guy that's a Blazers fan. It'd just be good if they were welcomed here. Talk crap back and forth, but people go right to, "go away".

I lose all the time. There is no graceful way to let it go. So I just move on once the moment passes. It all comes back around anyway. People are still rehashing Westbrook takes from 3 years ago. It doesn't bother me. I'm flattered they remember..

We used to have tons of other fans on here. Spurs, Rockets, Mavs, of course the Lakers.. it was cool. You didn't have to be a Pelicans die hard to participate..

It is called rhetoric and BS. If you feel that I need a pessimistic, paranoid, psychedelic, false narrative (every time you open your mouth) on this Pelicans fan board, I for one think you are incorrect. Please go and become a fan of a "good" basketball squad; perhaps, the Grizzlies or the Lakers or the Pistons. They would all love to have you.

I agree for the need for contrarians here and there. But you gotta pick your spots. Respectfully, I don’t think this Ingram thread was the spot. Nobody’s post ratio should be 95% Contrarian and debate type posts. 50/50 split is probably high as well.

Being a "contrarian" just to be an annoying fool is not valuable to the board. There should be some shred of knowledge or reasonableness and not simply someone looking to troll for attention purposes.

You seem like a miserable person to be around. I feel sorry for your family if you even have one. Why make a shitty comment about a star player that actually enjoys playing in New Orleans? Are you that miserable of a son of a bitch?
