Boti and "Thank Naismith"

Mind you, his continued assault on James Ennis and Nick Marvin could somewhat be interpreted as borderline defamation :P

It would only border on defamation if what he was speculating on was going to harm the reputation of someone or something. Speculation is not always negative or harmful, nor is putting a truthful spin on a rumor ;)

"Am sick of BN, and find him lacking in substance, and often portraying speculation and rumor as fact "

I think you will find most of Boti's articles published on Newscorp/Adelaide Advertiser are quite factual and to the point.

Sometimes his blog is subject to "speculation and rumor as fact", but that's his Blog, her can write what he wants and if you don't like it you don't have to go there to read it. He is a passionate writer and you cant really dis-credit him from that.

Personally I love it,

I think it is clever, even if he uses it a little too often but it is so much better than reading something in which they put their religious views upon a story... So who better to thank in that situation than the creator of the game that we love so much and the reason why we read and comment on this site.

If AFL used the alternative of 'thank Wills' (Tom Wills being the first man to put rules to Aussie Rules) then I certainly wouldn't take issue with it.

Frankly I think your making too much of it buddy, just sit back and enjoy his writing for what it is or peruse on here instead or do both... Surely you can't get enough basketball,

no - this one

Why do you care so much? haha


Dear RMQ
Thank you for asking - I expect that this is a question that does puzzle you - and that is quite understandable given your situation - I care because everyone - no matter how trollish, lonely, terminally attention seeking, deservedly abandoned by their family, intellectually challenged, drunk, doped or over-medicated, needs to be appreciated for who they are - which is a precious rare and jewel of a human being who no matter what mistakes they may make in life - performs at least one major positive function within the human society on this wonderful blue planet - bumping the rest of us up one place above "average" -

You were asking about yourself I assume:

In respect of Boti's post I don't care that much at all

Why do you care so much? haha

Boston has re-signed Glen "Big Baby" Davis to a 2 year deal worth about $6 million.

The Celtics now have great depth at the forward postion & a good mixture of youth & experience. They now have Big Baby (23yo), Sheldon Williams (26yo), Rasheed Wallace (35yo), & of course K.G & Paul Pierce.
