The Recurring TTC Violence

Another violent outburst in my cities biggest public transit,and also the biggest public transit system in the country. This was driving motivation for me to get a car,not the violence but it wasn't recurring frequently in my bus riding days,but the passengers was more the hostile, miserable likely due to work or personal issues and the constant ram pack buses that i dread about public transportation.Even though times are getting harder i wouldn't be surprised if passengers start thinking of different routes or a whole different method of transportation. What i don't understand about these attacks is that their in daylight and in crowded buses trains and hubs,these guys are quick to react or even oblivious to the circumstances which i don't understand,there are witnesses and cameras. I don't case what these guys are beefing about,i always said people should pick their spots when they want to settle a dispute,obviously they don't care who gets hurt in a crossfire. These are the most idiotic criminals ever.If insuring cars weren't so expensive a lot more people would be driving,or maybe they are.

What the police will get away with is scary, don't forget Oscar grant.

Both victims had children, and both cases are proof and high form injustice in the public eye,the nerve of the judge in the Sean bail case to say the victims reasoning was not credible.

Rasism From New York Post

Not only in America,but they blunt about what they feel about the bill and Obama.

www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jlBBpB0_XF-eJt6GGtXCSl5bfV1AD96E6PC02

Calling insulting Bush the devil is insulting,but the cartoon subliminally calling Obama a monkey is demeaning and degrading to Obama and to African Americans and black people all over north America . Any one who pays attention to politics knows that Obama is the author of the stimulus bill,therefore the newspaper cartoon is racist,PERIOD.

Cock Fighting Ring bust in Toronto

This is just another hypocritical stance as far as abuse to animals this is what i am referring to.

www.citynews.ca/news/news_32210.aspx

I must remind you that Sarah plain is open to shooting moose,and Karl Rove and others especially some in the bush administration in has been in photos hunting an some even posing with birds or other animals that were shot. Don't forget the animals who died due to the manufacturing of mink coats etc. Basically what i am saying is if harming an animal in any shape or form is illegal/immoral than it should be applied to hunting as well i wonder if people understand the double standard,i understand the gambling aspect, some gambling is legal like casino and lotto,but betting on animals then i can see why people can get upset,what i am saying is if Micheal Vic is seeing jail time for dog fights then it should be the same all across the board for hunters and businesses who profit from hurting animals and profiting from it,am i the only one that see this bull?

Nba Jocking Shaq and Kobe at allstargame

Its pathetic to see the NBA try to mend the broken relationship between Shaq and Kobe and how obviously tried to make it seem sentimental,and really made to much of it,players just came to have fun they are not going to hang out after the game. Another try to spin off bad relationships and change of looks as something that its not.

Nba Nation Relieved at Allen Iversons Hair Cut

This just shows you what other demographics in the NBA fan base think or the black youth culture on the main stage,i saw a few articles it kinda bothered me.

As a young west Indian Canadian im surprised that this writer thinks braids are out of style and out dated he must be old,but the styles are changing, ever since Daddy rocked the Mohawk i see some the brothas rock them on the NBA scene to the grocery store. im not surprised that the nbs "white america" thinks braids baggy pants jewelery etc makes the nba look bad but that just goes to show you what little the different dempgraphics {not just white america} know about black youth and black people on a whole. Not just nba it reflects the whole north America too. These "fans" who take offense the the players wearing braids baggy pants or "hip hop gear" as many say watch to many bet and think think thats what black people are,and its obvious these demographics lack a black population,there is still segregation and racial hostility in this present time. The Afro isnt faded brades arnt,i don't see the Mohawk may not stick around for long,what bothers me is that the NBA made that dress code,itf it does make the nba look bad or bring trouble to the events,then its sad,that the fans misunderstood our swag,and believe it or not but not a lot of black people like gangster music,most of the artists out now are frauds.Hip Hop used to be the voice of oppressed black people rapping about inequality current events etc. I understand that a lot more youths of different decent are wearing "hip hop gear" so im sure the fans who really appreciate Allen Iverson and Carmello Anthony cutting their hair is the older demographic of different ethnicity. I hope the bigotry stops there,but i know the hatred and ignorance is being passed down, I used to live in the states,many rarely leave the state or out the country,so they don't know much about people other than their own. I wonder what they are going to say about twists and mini dreadlocks. There is a bigger issue behind the hair.

Stupid RealGM Raptor board Moderators

There are more than one way of seeing/interpreting the raptors basketball,but others on the realGM website has said a lot worse than i have,its very funny to be disrespected on the form and its crazy that i cant even reply or even pm {as far as replying to moderators},the logic of most people on this forum is funny, i think it reflects a lot about raptor fans online and in the city itself.For the grown fans that are rational and mature i feel bad for ya, pure children on this form,y'all cant even talk to each other with respect and open mind.The moderators are can be bias too. This one was real disrespectful he posted this"

"If you don't stop being a blog whore, you'll be forcibly separated from the material that you're ripping off. -Schad."

I wanted to respond but it showed up in my real gm account stating:

"Do not create a topic just to call out a Mod. This is your first and only warning about it. You're stay here will be short if you continue down this path."

So i guess its OK for them to call me out disrespectfully,and the Schad message will stay in the thread,but i cannot reply or plea my case on the thread or even PM {personal message} the moderator. Is this how most raptor fans,or even Canadians deal with people they don't agree with? curse posters and lock and ignore them? The raptor board is clearly one sided and if history repeat's itself chasing out Marion and banks i wouldn't be not surprised,this is a hockey town,so what the hell do most of these fans really know or understand or even analyze about basketball.I think most of them don't know much or don't factor anything else but stats , just a bunch of wanna be General Managers who cant tell why certain players cant fit in the jump shot system,and i noticed there are a few bigots in the bunch.

Last thing i would like to mention how i find it funny that some fans even went to the Miami board bashing moon, face it Miami got the better deal.

hateful and bitter raptor fans

Most raptor fans need to realize and need no know how to analyze players,and not listen to bias commentators. I had to quote these posters,W.I.C. make a very good point

{Death Knight Comment}
O'Neal might flourish, but Moon absolutely sux! I wish Miami best of luck if they're counting on Moon to be a good defender at the wing for them. Moon can be a good defender, but he doesn't have the mind set and focus to be one. He also doesn't take the game seriously enough. When he makes a mistake, he'll give you the impression that he did it on purpose and doesn't care about it with this big grin on his face. Maybe his attitude towards basketball carried on from playing with the Harlem Globetrotters, I don't know, but his happy go lucky attitude on the court really bugged the hell out of me.

And just to let you guys in on a secret. Moon doesn't get to the basket not because he doesn't have handles (he doesnn't), but because he is afraid of contact. All his dunks and lay ups are a result of being wide open with no one in the paint. That's a reason why we haven't seen him posterize anyone or get to the free throw line all that much. All you can hope is that his trigger happy jump shot goes in for you guys.

{W.I.C reply}
Meh...Don't listen to this guy. He's a prototypical Raptors fan whose views mirror that of two of the worst TV commentators in the NBA: Leo Rautins, and Matt Devlin.

See in the eyes of the brainwashed Raptors fan, they some how believed that a 29yr old, 700K salary, Moon "should" have been able to improve his limited ball-handling skills over a 6 month break, and all of a sudden be able to "drive to the rim" (by that they mean, take his man off of the dribble). This absurd expectation is based on nothing more than the fact that "he can jump high"; they think there's a correlation between the ability to jump high and the ability to break down the defense....so naive.

I wonder what they'll be saying when they realize that Marion will also be incapable of taking his man off the the dribble? Or do they actually think Marion (starting SF) is gonna cross Lebron, Granger, Iguodala, Wallace, etc...

They like to pin the motion-less offense on Moon, believing that Marion will bring much needed movement to the Raptors offense. But it never dawned on them, that the only time the Raptors playbook involves any useful motion is when they run that double screen curl for the SG. So what does that say? Moon wasn't the only one camping out looking for a jump shot.

Unless the Raptors make a brand new playbook just for Marion, once he's plucked into the stagnant Raptors offense, he will be taking the same type of jump shots as Moon, and the same wide open 3s as Moon. In my opinion, the Heat received "Shawn Marion lite" (lite as in less shot attempts, less height) for practically nothing.

Having watched just about every single Raptors game that Moon has played in and having watched a few Heat games on League Pass I'll say what I said before: Moon will flourish. Whether he gets 10 minutes of playing time, or 25 minutes, he'll do fine: He'll be playing with backcourt players that can penetrate into the lane, and among other things, aren't afraid to throw alley-oop.

Once again, congrats to Heat fans for having a GM that knows how to take advantage of a nub named Colangelo. Anyone who doesn't believe that the Raptors got the short end of the stick is, well...

Its sad that raptor fans base players on stats,and unable to see the intangibles.
