Stems from an altercation with (I think now former) posters Jhoksr1 and 
Chroads13 who indicated I had an "Anti-Kansas" bias because I supposedly hated Paul 
Pierce and didn't want to draft Hinrich in particular and Collison didn't 
really "wow" me (I wouldn't have minded drafting him, but he just seemed like a 
better rebounding Andrew DeClerq). I always loved Danny Manning as a player. 
Big Fan of JoJo White. And I think Pierce is a heckuva star who just needs to 
grow into a more cerebral versus athletic player. So now I just preface my 
statements so there are no further misunderstandings. I don't hate Kansas U.  -

*******************************************************

  I've been debating in my mind how I should handle this.  Should I call you 
on the carpet?  Should I just let it go and avoid any unpleasantness that 
might result?  

I've decided to just get it all out in the open.

This is a bunch of hooey.  
Truth is neither Jhoks or Chroads have ever posted here or on Yahoo.  I wrote 
to them to ask if they've ever had any such altercation about Kansas, 
Collison or Hinrich, maybe in personal email,  and neither one of them new what the 
heck you were talking about.
Jhoks told me he has only ever posted on one Celtics board...AOL, which you 
haven't posted on for some time now.
Chroads said that he probably did have some run in with you in the past, but 
not on this subject and not for a long time.
For your information Chroads isn't even a Kansas fan.  Never has been.

This is the second time you've tried to pull this.  You wrote a post about, 
among other things, how Hinrich played like a two guard and I replied pointing 
out that he was playing two guard so it only made sense he should play like a 
two guard.
Here is the post:

You went back to Celticsstuff and accused me of calling you biased againt KU. 

Here is that post:

When I heard that I was flabbergasted.  I never said any such thing.  I never 
even hinted as much.
All I did was reply to your post using the knowledge I have from following a 
team faithfully that most posters here only see a handful of times a year.
I guess I could have confronted you weeks ago, but I let it go.  After all, 
we've always gotten along in the past.
But I'm not about to let this go a second time.
Do you have something against me?  Against KU?  Against Paul?  Heck if I 
know.  But it seems to me if your willing to go around making things up and then 
"prefacing posts" to supposedly avoid confrontations that never happened, you 
must have some sort of agenda.
