    What I find interesting is that people are JUST NOW beginning to realize this about the press. Truth is, it has been going on for well over a decade. People don't notice it as much until it is pointed at them. The press is total b******* in this country, in all phases of our life. It is just most apparent in the political and sports fields, but it goes on everywhere. People let it go because they are under the impression that somehow it supports their beliefs. The truth is, it has formed your beliefs and you have fallen for it. It is our American version of the Matrix. A false reality levied on us by the rich and powerful who want to subjugate us for their own use and purposes. Those of you who think my words are crazy are going to realize too late that you should have called them all out a long time ago. Quit paying them to screw you under.

    Interesting. You went "Matrix" to better explain the reality of what you were talking about, and I just went there bottom of previous page to tweak OX a bit for always dropping his "Oracle" like pearls on us unsolicited, and not always of great accuracy.

    Well, it's not just now for me. I saw it happening when Bush was in the White House. I'm not saying what I think about Bush one way or the other, but when one "news" station is saying one thing, and the other is saying the exact opposite, someone is lying (or in this case both). These news organizations have lost the "right" to be at events in my opinion. It used to be we needed them there to give us the truth about our politicians and other public figures, but they don't tell the truth any more. They tell their own "truth" which is just as useless as what the politician is giving us.

    Only took her 75 days to respond to the media and all the criticism the team has faced.

    Just wish it was sooner.

    ...if Rob wears this T-shirt to his Kawhi meeting he will have earned my respect.

    You can't tweak the tweak master. I was put on earth to do two things. Tell the truth and tell the truth about those who don't follow the truth.

    Cue A Few Good Men clip......

    Either he needs to wear that t-shirt OR he needs to bring Blake Griffin to the pitch meeting. Tobias Harris can skype in.

    I know @vasashi17 has been on it. I've been saying it. This trade was never done until we needed it to be done. Rob has handled this perfectly thus far.

    He deserves some praise. Now just get Kawhi in a room and lock this mother****** down.

    Never any doubt we would get to a max slot, all of the media driven BS was an absolute joke on their part.

    Remember when Rob Pelinka didn't know the ins and outs of the CBA? I remember that.

    Absolutely.

    Some reporters might want to just delete their accounts for a few weeks
