NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

lol

I guess you just skipped past the part where I said he needs to apologize.

Thanks for proving my point.

You haven't proven anything. Actually you've defended his comments.

Sounds like Schefter was trying to give a, for lack of a better word, "detached" report and flubbed it.

Agree that he needs to apologize and not just delete the tweet and pretend it never happened.

Yeah right he just "flubbed it". Sure you said he should apologize. No he shouldn't, he meant what he said.

You even went as far to say "pretend it never happened".

People make mistakes, it’s horrible to just assume he did this with malice for anyone. His comment would have been best said had he been writing a full article about Haskins, not in a tweet about his death but no one is perfect.

It's just a coincidence that AS is a UofM grad? Why haven't any other sports talking heads said anything outta line about what happened to Haskins?

This isn't the first questionable tweet he tweeted recently as @Shanemansj13 said. The previous questionable tweets where he got slammed had nothing to do with the Michigan/OSU

Also I know Michigan/OSU is a rivalry but i don't think the fans/alumni are happy when someone from the other school died which it seems like you are trying to say about Schefty

Yea and to assume he did this because some stupid sports rivalry? Ridiculous

He knew exactly what he was saying.

And for anyone else that disagrees with me there's no reason to make this a days-long topic. I don't like what he said and I think he meant it.

I won't change my opinion until what I think is proven wrong. Has he offered up an apology? Not that I'm aware of of. And there's nothing out there right now that says he regrets what he said.

Try not to think the worst of people, it will serve you well.

Yes, he flubbed it. He fucked up his tweet. It happens. He's apparently done the same when it had nothing to do with anyone from Ohio St.

And yes, you proved my point. You're the only one here trying to make it a Michigan/Ohio St. thing.

In short, you're doing exactly what you accuse Schefter of doing.

Exactly. Which is what I was getting at when I said he was trying to give a detached report. You stated it better than I did with this post.

Your own words.

"pretend it never happened"

Nothing else needs to be said.

I don't think the worst of people.

But I gotta question what that UofM grad said. And I don't think he's offered up an explanation or even an apology yet. What he said was outta line. That's all I'm saying. If you or anyone else thinks what he said wasn't outta line that's fine.

He took it down, he doesn’t have to apologize to make people like you a little bit happier.

Yeah, I said he needs to apologize and not just delete the tweet and pretend that it didn't happen which he has apparently done in the past, including on things that had nothing to with Ohio St.

Again, you're the only one here trying to make this about some rivalry...which is really pretty sick.

 

[Wamu]

He shouldn't have said it in the first place.

Just because he took it down doesn't change what he said.

No he shouldn't have. It also shouldn't be being made into some Michigan/Ohio St. thing...yet here you are, doing just that.

Had he done the right thing and offered up an immediate explain to the tweet he took down my opinion would be different . But he didn't do that did he?

A rivalry is a rivalry but that doesn't mean they actually dislike these people. We need to stop acting like sports rivalry is a rap beef lol

I guess you should just be butthurt then, seems to be the only solution

I can only say I don't like what he said so many times.

How many more times will be good enough for you?

You said a lot more than you just don't like what he said. You made it about the rivalry and quadrupled down on it when it was pointed out that it's not about the rivalry.

Your words are there for everyone to see.

Trying to pretend that "all you said" was that you didn't like what he said isn't going to help that.
