Quin Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I didn't watch the Bulls until the Kirk/BG/Deng/Noc era. I'M NOT A FAN. Jesus f***ing Christ why are we all ganging up on J4L? We all f***ing know that he's a grass is always greener person. Leave him be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Now I'm going the Soxbadger route. I don't feel like quoting everybody, 2K5, the Bulls selling out all those games means nothing. Michael Jordan played there. That's enough right there. 6 title banners, the MJ statue, and f***, just a damn beautiful basketball arena in general in a place like Chicago and the stadium will sell out. See the Cubs for the latter. Q - You're the s***. You disagree with me frequently and don't attack me because my opinion differs from the masses. Steve - as far as fantasy, I don't check the stats until Sunday. And there's a reason I refuse to drop Favors. If he didn't have to play behind Jefferson/Millsap, he'd be every bit as productive as Monroe. Hopefully he gets his chance next year. And yes, I don't believe you as far as the Elton Brand Bulls teams go. I'm done for now. I'm spamming and I don't mean to. I'm getting wasted and I'll be back later.

We should all know by now that J4L absolutes just mean his opinion and what he thinks. "Everyone" didn't mean everyone, obviously the Bulls still had fans. But it's no different than when people say "no one will follow the Sox" this year. We sure as f*** will. "The stadium will be empty." My ass.

Chisoxfn Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 11:44 AM) No. Like EVERY other Bulls fans in the world, when the dynasty broke up and they went to winning 20 games a season, I simply forgot about them. I didn't jump on the Shaq/Kobe bandwagon or anything. But I'm not going to pretend (and you or anybody else here shouldn't either) that I was sitting in front of the TV watching those Elton Brand-led, Floyd/Cartwright coached teams every night. They had a couple good seasons with Hinrich/Gordon/Deng/etc then quickly reverted back to irrelevance. They inexplicably won the lottery in '08, hired thibs two years ago and here they are. I'm still getting used to them being a factor again. I don't think the organization has done anything amazing. If they hadn't won the lottery, they'd be exactly where they were in '08. I was.

Chisoxfn Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 12:47 PM) Nope, Nope, Nope. And I'm sure Kyle is going to come in here and get on me for talking in absolutes. But NOBODY was watching those teams consistently. I won't say every night. It would be damn near impossible to watch EVERY game of any season. But I don't want to hear it. The Bulls from 99 to I think it was '05 ( or what year was it that they made the playoffs under Skiles the first time?). They were Charlotte Bobcats bad. Oh my goodness. I still remember when Corey Bengamin and Khalid El-Amin got starts. You all are liars. The truth will set you free. I watch as many Bulls games than than I do now. It doesn't change. Do I get more pumped up when they are good, absolutely, but at the same time, I get crazy delusional when they are bad and still cheer them on like crazy. Same goes for the White Sox and every other team I love and follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's mainly because of me. And that's not my intention. You should know. You said Rose choked in the Heat game and everybody jumped you like Ralph Macchio got jumped by the Cobra Kai in Karate Kid. I really didn't know last night was Big Mac night (or that every Bulls game in which they score 100 and win is Big Mac night). That's where this all started.
