boyst Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Albert Breer ✔ @AlbertBreer LeSean McCoy told me what hurts about Cooper's remarks is "losing a friend." I asked him what that meant, "I can't respect a guy like that." 2:28 PM - 1 Aug 2013 http://sports.yahoo....-200733255.html Oh, never mind, I thought this topic was about Riley Cooper. My mistake. But seriously, it's amusing that no one replied to my earlier post (save jboyst's snide dodging anything of substance). The PPP tough guys must be quivering in their boots when faced with such a superior intellect! It's cool if you feel that way and I understand. It must be tough to constantly argue tangentially related points that will be used to misrepresent the crux of the matter. I mean look- this topic went from a racist white guy to a discussion on Black Culture (seriously?"Black Culture?") to nitpicking about the moieties of the financial world. You guys must be a riot at parties! I should venture on down to PPP more often, they say laughter is good for your health. Nah, just kidding. I think we all are content with the frequency of my drive by posts. Go Bills! Hey I take issue to that. But, have nothing else to add.

IDBillzFan Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 If I'm not mistaken, it sounded like he used the non-racist phrase that ends in a vowel. He should just explain that so everyone will leave him alone.
....lybob Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) It doesn't matter? Really? So you don't know if AIG was a cause or collateral damage of the real estate collapse? we are talking about damage to the economy, right- without the CDS AIG would have taken loses from it's mortgage-backed securities but not collapsed and need a 150 billion dollar bailout.

We were? And all the things you listed are damaging the economy? HSBC, a British Bank laundering money to red(?) states is harming the US economy?
3rdnlng Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Hijack my ass, the very fact that this thread ended up is this **** hole means it was hijacked. Sorry if I didn't see and respond to very FN question that was asked. I'm no FN liberal BTW. Yep, I said it and I'll FN own it too. But, do the bidding lemmings. If you're not a liberal, why do you sound so much like one? I see you still found a way to not answer my question. If this place is such a schithole I guess you'd be a hypocrite to return or comment in any other threads, eh?

Your bleepin question isn't important enough to me to provide an answer as I'll only descend deeper into this hole. I sound like a liberal because you and others on here are extremist right wing group think knuckle headed lemmings who can't understand why anyone would reasonably disagree with your ill-reasoned simplistic world views. Carry on. I've wasted enough time here. Cheers bitches!

I think we all are content with the frequency of my drive by posts. Go Bills! Making fun of black culture is something that I think nearly everyone here would frown upon. You should feel shame and remorse. Although there is no singular black culture for you to denigrate, there are a myriad of cultures that blacks have experienced. Your blanket statement attempts to shame them all, but only reflects upon your bigoted mind. I doubt you'll sleep tonight knowing what a dirty deed was done. As far as your drive-by posts, we do have a few low-lives that practice that. I guess it goes with the territory. We chalk drive-bys up to cowards who know they couldn't hack it here so they throw out a few insults as they speed away. I always wonder if they never had balls or if they know the exact moment when they lost them.

Funny, the only two-way debate I've seen was over the definition of "black culture" I haven't seen anything resembling an answer from you or Tgreg to the underlying question of socioeconomic disparity and why it's getting larger, despite a two generation-long war on poverty? I get it, it's your first visit to the dark side of the board, and you were put off by the tone that's usually afforded to newbies. And you resorted to a knee jerk Wall Street tangent when someone brought up black culture & crime. Yet you're still here after 10 page. So, what's your rationale for the disparity?

Carry on. I've wasted enough time here. Cheers bitches! Now fellas, this is how a liberal avoids tough questions and talking fact. I'm not sure what "world views" were discussed here but maybe when he punched that in he was a line off on his liberal talking point guide? The last I knew I was attempting to discuss a rather stupid law that allowed people to buy homes that they clearly couldn't afford that led to the housing collapse. He's just another hack that couldn't take the heat in a very mild PPP today/tonight. Tomorrow or soon enough he'll be in the Shoutbox or on TSW complaining about the schithole that is PPP and proclaiming his virtue.
