In Response to Re: Forget it. Done for a while. :    34 you are really ridiculus sometimes with your language parsing....     you argue clearly that you think the lakers will be bad next season - listing the reasons and then call this prediction a manifesto???    what a joke...    then you even provide the definition of manifesto - which clearly doesn't match your statement at all.....       a public declaration of principles?         is it your principles you are publicly declaring???     First, you cannot publicly declare someone elses principals...    but even if that were possible you did not declare any principles....   you did not declare policies,   you did not declare intentions  ,  and most importantly the things you did say were not of a political nature.       Simply saying something is a manifesto does not make it a manifesto......    Your post is simply a list of circumstances that together clearly imply a negative outcome to the Lakers upcoming season..    any rational person reading this list would conclude that your intention in putting it together is to argue that the obsticals to Lakers success are too great for the team to overcome....    a very strongly implied forecast or prediction...  although it is true that you don't make a specific prediction..    it is also true that you do that so you can make the stupid rhetorical argument that you didn't make a prediction...    that you have technical "cover" so no one can say, if the Lakers win next year, that you made a bad prediction.        stop trying to hide  from what you are saying ....            And if the point of your post was NOT that all these factors will add up to bad Laker performance in upcomming season,  what was the point?      Calling an assessment a Manifesto does not make it one.           And, by the way, if you are going to try to parse your statements and defend them on technical definitional grounds, at least try to make it accurate and   logically consistant...  "an outlook or manifesto"     well which one is it?   One has almost nothing to do with the other.    definition of OUTLOOK from Miriam-Webster   a   :  a place offering a view b   :  a view from a particular place 2 :   point of view   <a positive  outlook  on life /> 3 :  the act of looking out 4 :  the  www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/outlook# " class="itxtrst itxtrsta itxthook"> prospect  for the future  <the  outlook  for steel demand in the United States —  Wall Street Journal > The 4th definition is the only one that fits your statement best  - and is essentially an assesment of the likelyhood of future events - a prediction. Like a weather prediction -  or forecast.    An outlook is not a Manifesto.  I'm sorry I'm wasting so much time on this ..  irritated with myself for letting your ridiculus and incompetent word wiggleing get under my skin...   Please just stop.   say what you mean say -  dont be a word weasle

Some good news for DFURY, Rico if off this board. The moderators finally had it with Rico's obnoxious ways. A small victory but a victory nonetheless.

In Response to Re: Forget it. Done for a while. : A troll? Do I attack other Celtic fans on this board? You're the one resorting to name calling? Didn't you call tomobo tomoblo? How about ThunderThighs34, who said that? Loser? Who was the loser in the Anthony Tolliver vs. Glen Davis bet? I'm a word weasel? I mince words? If that's so then it can't be any worse than being a coward like you!
