>>There's a big difference between constructive criticism and spite.<<Point taken about that, but...

>>>Compare the following two statements:

"Horrific Doesn't Adequately Describe Ford's Beat-Down Of Rondo..."

"Rondo struggled last night against Ford"

They both say the same thing, one is just a lot nicer than the other.<<<... But they really don't say the same thing.  I mean, "struggled" doesn't quiteaccurately convey, 30 pts, 5 assists to 2 pts, 2 assists.  "Horrific beatdown",in this case, actually more accurate describes what happened... and I love Rondo and think he's got a big future in front of him.  I think Perk seems like a terrificteam mate as well, but he's not a great player.  It's completely legitimateto voice doubt about whether Perk and Rondo can adequately man their positionson a championship team.  Doesn't mean you have a personal axe to grind withthem.  I like them both.  Rondo will have a lot of moments when he'll justelectrify the crowd.  Let's call a spade a spade when he does get owned though.
