It's getting worse. You literally can't see what I'm asking. I'll try again:

Is. There. Anything. He. Can. Do. To. Change. Your. Opinion?

You get offended by even the question that you would lessen the hate. That's derangement.


ok, let. ME. try. again...

i highly DOUBT it...

and obviously you "offense" confused with mirth...

seems like YOU'RE the one all testy over it...

it IS my opinion, after all...

guess it's that important to you that i become a sheep...:lol:

He wasn't overstating anything. For the first time in 22 years the Lakers land a superstar player in free agency. For the first time since Kareem they got the best player in the league to join them.

That deserves recognition.

So Executive of the Year?

Maybe? Depends what he does between now and the start of training camp and how the Lakers perform during the season.

I didn't hear of any other GM showing up at his front door the minute free agency opened.

The self-importance is my favorite. ChiefsLakers fighting the good fight, staying strong as the world attempts to make him like some ball player. But he will never surrender! He is strong and principled, and not a sheep!

LOL come on, I already said it's not likely, but you still can't answer the question. Because of your derangement. I highly DOUBT it too. But is there ANYTHING he can do?

You've really got LeBron Derangement Syndrome, chief. I never said you had to like him. I just asked if there was anything the man could do to change your opinion on him. It's not likely, but it's not impossible that he turns into an elder statesman with the Lakers. That he dials back the diva act and works with the team and brings you guys another ring or two.

Because you are deranged, I suspect that there's nothing he can do to ever make you respect him or root for him. You prefer hating the man to the titles he may bring. And to make it worse, your sports identity is so wrapped up in hating him that you've convinced yourself that changing your opinion would make you unprincipled.

Look, you are of course free to have your opinions. That's what this place is for, sports opinions. But if you have a weird one, and you do, you're gonna get shit for it.
Really, there are 3 ways for me to stop actively hating a guy.

1. Is to play for my team.

But, that's not a 100% guarantee either because I could not STAND CP3. But, I was happy to have him play for the Clippers.

2. Be the enemy of my enemy.

Ex. I can't stomach Draymond. But, against the Rockets? :cheer2:

Well, not actively. Because, ya know...I have buzzards luck.

3. Have a touching story.

* see Marcus Smart.

Dude is going thru it with his mom being sick.

Fuck Cancer.

Luckily, I still have Grayson Allen to hate.

and yep, i'm NOT a sheep. kinda pride myself on it, actually...

oh, and i just put it in the least "deranged" way possible...:D

tell you what, i'll consider at least lightening up on my opinion if he writes an apology letter for being an arrogant jackass, personally flies it to your home, and YOU get to read it aloud to the world...

there ya go...

This is one of those things that @ChiefsLakers67 is going to stand by. I had this conversation with him in the past. At some point, you're just not going to like someone and that often isn't going to change.

Part of the issue is the Kobe vs. LeBron debate.

For the last decade, a line has been drawn in the sand between the pro and anti factions.

After all those years, how the fuck do you consolidate those feelings?

Because now that he's a Laker, 95% of the dissenting population has been neutralized.

Looking at it clearly without the harsh glare of homer goggles, it should be pretty clear LeBron is better.

I never denied that. I've acknowledged he's the better of the 2 players, though i'd STILL give Kobe the edge as a competitor...

LeClown the player has nothing to do with LeClown the man...

I don't like the twat either. Other than @ChiefsLakers67 I believe I've been one of the people most vocal on these boards regarding my dislike.

But I'm not going to actively scorn him if he brings another championship to the Lakers

No you're definitely not a sheep. You are a powerful champion! No one can make you not hate a guy. Not even that guy!

And this is obviously important to you, you never stop with it. You can't even stop replying to me. But I guess I do have an answer, he has to write you an apology letter and fly it to my house.

@Mecca has a little better handle on her sports hate.

Fair enough, and I respect that. Just seeing if there was any ray of hope for change. I mean, if I hate a guy but then he changes and stops doing the things I hate and brings my team a ring or two, I change my opinion. That seems reasonable to me. If not even that works? That's deranged obsession.

Put it this way. In my case, if he delivers the Lakers a threepeat I might just consider buying his jersey lol
