Hopefully you eventually reach the point in your personal development that you don’t think bad results for your team mean the opposition (possibly) deserves to be in a hospital bed unable to walk. I wish you good luck in that journey.

Speaking of personal development, once you've cooled down, I recommend you take a dispassionate read through this thread again. There was only one person who devolved into name calling, four-letter profanity, and personal attacks.

I would strongly suggest "Blocking" Baltifox. I feel so much better about this site after having done so. What a great feature.

Thus betraying the mentality of a teenage girl. "Oh, I'm ignoring you! So there! " Pathetic.

In my 25 years on discussion forums, never once have I even considered ignoring/blocking another poster. I have no problem dealing with/responding to disagreements.

You repeatedly conflate "celebrating victory" with excessive taunting in your responses. To be clear (again): Karma came and bit Haliburton back not because the Pacers beat the Knicks or because he "celebrated his victories", but because he taunts like a jackass (he and his father, both, I might add).

Haliburton is not the most sympathetic of the many players who suffered season ending Achilles injuries this year (including a couple of others in the playoffs).

And just because some people don't have thick enough skin to see that hard truth spelled out doesn't make it any less true.
