Sportsmanship

Oaktown...I'm calm. Besides, I don't have to defend someone like Sean Taylor...who went to Miami...whom you called out for being a thug unprovoked and non-substantially...and who didn't do what you're saying he did, yeah that's what gets me.

This is two days in a row you've spouted off out the mouth w/o having backup for what you're saying. I will continue to call you on it if you continue to do stuff. If it's opinion, qualify it as such with an IMO or if it's based on some information or research, then link to it or post it. So goes etiquette on a forum like this. Don't just characterize someone as one thing they're not w/o either stating an alliance that shows bias before the fact or w/o giving some backup for your statement.

Nice edit after the fact. You ain't gotta please me...just expect to get attacked if you say something and you have NO ammo to backup what you're saying, especially if you're being a smartarse about it as is characterized in above quote.

back this up then how do you know he did not spit on pittman

**oakland_raiders** · January 10th, 2006, 02:58 PM

and in my eyes he is a thug because of his past and i know you are going to bring up the same crap on how he was innocent but it is a little known fact that the majority of the time athletes pay their way out of crimes unless you are ray caruth and hide in a trunk

**oakland_raiders** · January 10th, 2006, 03:01 PM

and one more thing quit assuming that you think he did not spit on him just because you did not see it on video because i personally do not know and dont care because i am about sure that there are only 3 people who know the truth

Go look at the tape. I don't see any spitting or spitting actions like his head going forward...do you? And don't tell me what I can or cannot see. I'm looking at actual footage--I don't see where it could have happened.

Well then that is your opinion of ST...it's fine for you to have it. But that's all it is is an opinion--we'll see how it all shakes out after his trial in the postseason.

Question--how are you so privy to this "little known fact" that athletes pay their way out of crimes and we're not? What's your source? Who do you know? Any backup to that statement, or is it just another assumption full of hot air?

**oakland_raiders** · January 10th, 2006, 03:08 PM

good and you have your own opinion and to answer your question you are starting to be a____________(i believe you are able to figure it out)

**CoeburnCane** · January 10th, 2006, 03:11 PM

I just believe you can't take it when you're called on being wrong man. I said I believe that yesterday--but you're quickly proving it as fact.

**oakland_raiders** · January 10th, 2006, 03:15 PM

take what you haven't proved Sh*t to me and mods I do apologize for the language

**oakland_raiders** · January 10th, 2006, 03:21 PM

why dont you practice what you preach because everything you call me on is my opinion and i dont see what the problem is with my opinion...the only person being made into an idiot is you because you keep harasing me over my opinions so you can cut the crap about trying to make yourself sound allknowing

**CoeburnCane** · January 10th, 2006, 03:30 PM

Nope--I'm far from all-knowing Oaktown...I just now BS when I see it and that's mostly what you're close to 1200 posts on here have consisted of...maybe you'll start doing your homework to back up your opinions so you can actually discuss them in a reasonable way on the forum. The time for unqualified BS statements is over--bring it hard or don't bring it at all.

You cussing me just shows how smart you are when it comes to having an argument.
