Want to know why I'm in a position to make that assessment?

Let me guess. The position that you are in is behind PP on your knees with your nose stuck firmly between his cheeks. Pretty good guess huh!

Are you trying to be funny, or just rude?

If you are defending PP's right to decide who is "deserving" of anything then I am being rude. If not I am being funny. You decide.

Being new to this forum, something surprises me. Sklansky and Philips and in my opinion some other top players (not so conclusive evidence so I won't name them in case I am wrong) very often answer arrogantly when opposed.

[/ QUOTE ]

It tends to correlate with the quality of the "opposition". Unfortunately this forum is heavily populated by nimrods and I admit I provide them with more attention than they deserve. If you choose to judge me solely by what I write here that's your right, but you're just a blind man feeling up an elephant.

I will never become as good as these players, but I know that the day your mentality has become such, you are just a sitting duck waiting to be outclassed by more open-minded challengers.

[/ QUOTE ]

I occasionally amuse myself by making fun of certain highly deserving targets. If that means I'm doomed in poker then oh well. It was fun while it lasted.

The real master is the one who realizes that he just borrowes that title and does not own it.

post like this is why I think they are both funny as hell!!

nothing wrong with them giving back what they get on here [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] From what I have seen there is alot of jealousy against some of these guys ? I understand ..I am broke and work a crappy job living paycheck to paycheck.

Why are you in any position to decide who is highly deserving targets? Since you play well?

Mike,

I don't know if he likes quentin but he once said screw U2 to me. Now I don't know if he meant screw me or the band U2 or some two (2) other folk. He's so smart, like David said, that I'm not smart enough to know who he is talking about. Do U2 have the same problem? God I wish i knew 2 what a Nimrod is, maybe he would like me betterrer then like U---2.

Vince

I posted in this forum about this forum and think I was clear about that. I haven't attacked any of your outside-forum behaviour.

Thx, so one critical post was enough to enter your deserving targets list [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. If it wasn't a joke I think I have proven my point.
