Wow, I though I was being obsesive by going to WVU boards to defend Ewing. McLain may have well turned his life around but that won't remove the stigma of the 85 game

"It's also good not to do blow in the NCAA title game"
Congrats to him if he's turned his life around, but that's kind of irrelevant to the issue at hand here.

Gary has a gift. And that gift involves combining hip hop music, comedy and the art of storytelling that engages his audience to listen.
When are you guys going to accept that Gary is a very gifted man and appreciate him as the great American hero that he is?

I have gifts.
I shoot rainbow-colored laser beams from my eyes that have been known to grant the power of flight.
I have also taught squirrels to play the piano with their little noses

Why was this topic moved? Discussing a player whose most notable game was against Georgetown, in a week when G-Town's game is against his former team, is not appropriate for your main board?
Pretty weak showing by the board moderator.

Pretty weak showing by the board moderator. When the initial poster's intent is nothing more than to troll, s/he has no grounds for complaint. Taking shots at the moderators will not help the case. |
