You're taking this personally when in reality I didn't judge you at all. I merely gave my opinion that these are two separate tragedies that are apples and oranges.Tequilla said:Not going anywhere Derek ...
What I’m calling out are both monumental and tragic events that in the time/place were moment stands still events
The 30 year old ago me combined with what we knew about HIV at the time ... hard to explain
Today ... just straight out tragic
But go ahead and judge people’s opinions and emotions ... particularly mine because you’ve been so “dialed in” with regards to my thoughts in the past
You also say you're not going anywhere, as if you're standing in defiance of me somehow. You're welcome here, and I am not trying to drive you from HH.
I think you're reacting emotionally to the tragedy (which is understandable) and you're perceiving slights where none exist. -
There would be no "gloves off" or Teq without perceived slights.DerekJohnson said:

Blowhards can't help blowharding away.

umm what
teq there's no comparison even if we go with the whole HIV is a death sentence angle
no comparison -
Just like hundreds of family's across the nation who lost love ones in accidents yesterday...Tequilla said:It doesn’t matter at this point
What matters is families were ripped apart at their core
And way down the pecking order the world of basketball lost an influencer that had the power to influence both men’s and women’s basketball going forward in a profound way
For as great as Kobe was on the court ... he held the power to be a greater influence off of it
It’s beyond a sad day ...
And fuck anybody that wants to come out with a “I seen it” perspective -
I'm too worried about the coronavirus to contemplate any of this right now.

I know where not comparing the lives of these two players, but perhaps no team better shows my personal evolution as a sports fan than the Lakers. Little YellaPiss in the 80s loved Showtime and would scream at the TV with my old man at the Celtic and Pistons. Fuck you James Edwards!!...Dawg or no Dawg. I cried like a little girl when Magic retired.DerekJohnson said:

Then 1990- 92 happened and I decided pro sports sucked and college football was where it's at.
I don't think I watched an entire game from start to finish that Kobe played in. I did buy a Kobe jersey in the late 90's to be Fletch for Halloween. -

The comparison was never about the events being better or worseGladstone said:umm what
teq there's no comparison even if we go with the whole HIV is a death sentence angle
no comparison
The comparison was in the never forget where you were ... time stands still ... just total feeling of emptiness -
I've already forgotten where I was.Tequilla said:
