It's funny that people get emotionally attached to the success/failure of people they only know from television.

Simply because this happens on many levels, including sports, doesn't make it right, and I still find it funny.

Re: Defending Matusow
 

I agree with you on this one. The incident with Greg last year was way over the line. But whenever I see an interview with Matusow, I was always end up thinking the guy seems alright, just kind of emotional and wears his heart on his sleeve.

This is a very vague and indefensible position.

Please define "right".

I'm most likely correct in thinking your view of right consists mostly of your own opinions on how things should be.

Sadly, you are not correct, as in this instance my use of "right" was used only in the context of illustrating how multiple instances of the similar occurences do not necessarily equal justification.

In no place did I mention what I thought "right" was, and furthermore, I specifically said I find it funny that others find the emotion to hate Mike from what they see on television - not that you should find it funny, or that you must find it funny as well.

Finally, to declare that a position is indefensible, well my political/philosophical mind simply cannot understand.

Re: Defending Matusow
 

You say, I think...

Phil H - whiner
Raymer - Class gentleman
D. Brunson - legend
Ivey - Ice Man - always cool
Howard H- Einstein
Matusow - Wanker
T. Brunson - Mullet
Marcel - Class clown

I sure the guys okay but right or wrong you only get one chance to make a first impression....

Very nice. You got me. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
There's no point in pretending you didn't.

However, understand that I don't 'hate' Mike, nor do I have much of any emotion attached to my dislike of him. Other people liking him is fine with me, but nobody should waste their breath trying to change my opinion of him.

Some positions can be indefensible, but I digress...
