The Denver win: A time for self reflection

Have you ever heard yourself on tape and thought "THAT is what I sound like?" Have you ever been watching the news and thought "THAT is what I look like when I'm coked out of my mind?"

I had thought things were good on the mile high plateau. They had a solid coach. They had a fun team (though it could really use a 3pt. shooter) that definitively ended the clippers 17 game win streak. And were the proud owners of some fantastically yellow home jerseys. During the game thread some people mentioned the Denver Stiffs game thread so I checked it out. I thought if you posted naughty words SBNation would automatically block them out. They don't. The fine folks at the Denver Stiffs were extremely concerned about a close home loss to what I think is a darn fine team (although if my team was continually getting poked in the eye by a man just barely larger than the basketball, I would be upset too).

I then thought "Is THAT how I sounded when I spent the 22 hours following the Jazz loss spamming city council with 600 emails demanding that they blow up Target Center, load the rubble into a space ship, and shoot that space ship into the sun?" That was probably over the top. So next time you feel yourself careening towards the apoplectic take a deep breath, maybe check out another team's game thread and think "Am I going a little overboard here?" You probably are.

To the good people of the city council and the MPD who have invariably received their request for a restraining order: My bad and everything's totally cool.

To the sun: You are a magnificent and elegant mass of fusioning plasma, not a garbage dump. I understand that now.
