You May if you wish, Josh.  Lazy journalism is nothing new to gossip 
rags.com.  You are the one with the obligation to ''fair and balanced''  
journalism.  So just don't expect me to chip in for your liable lawyer 
as I am not blessed with the National Enquirer's legal budget.

It may be safer for you to submit something more positive from the 
boards such as the recent:

<< It will get a lot easier after the next two wins. Don't get 
discouraged.

I was worried about this game, as we didn't see Kidd at his best in 
game one. We did get his "A" game last night and still hung tough 
though, so I think we can win two and win one in NJ, to take the series.

Everyone is writing off Antoine, but I have a feeling that his will is 
so strong and his mind for the game so developed, that he will overcome 
his difficulties with Martin (nothing new here, he always has trouble 
with big, athletic defenders) and lead us on, with more passing and 
rebounds, which will help him get settled. He also is due to start 
hitting some threes.

Watch the team pick up, in front of the hometown fans.

Was it a mistake to sit Battie for the last seven minutes? >>

PS -  Hope those thieving Globe columnists don't come on this board 
and steal my original phrase ''more positive.'' I mean, what would they 
have to write about if they didn't appropriate our words/expressions?  
Okay, POSTER X, please stand up like a man and admit to furnishing 
Ryan with his now infamous ''Smack Joumana?''
