v a n d e e

A national sports writer (you only see on TV in March) didn’t appreciate mu asking why he diagnose a Christian with a mental illness & tried to have my account suspended. It worked for a week but X has done the right thing & restored it. He’ll be hearing from me again:)

@Quadcarl It’s a point made using faulty understanding of the history of the Bible. Not good in reality but good if you want to feel better about not having to argue the facts

He makes a good point here…

@geoffschwartz The video shows her being agitated. Not him.

If Geno is that upset because Dawn didn’t shake his hand before the game … weird overreaction imo

@ChristanWNBA He shook her hand and said something. She got agitated… what did he do wrong?

If Dawn Staley did what Geno just did, we’d be hearing about it on Fox News for a week. But we know why, right?

@RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 He didn’t skip it. In fact he stopped and had a brief interaction with her and she quickly got agitated

Dear Basketball Fans, this is a safe space. What do you think about Geno Auriemma skipping the post game handshake with Dawn Staley after UConn lost to South Carolina?

@fiercepatricks They are not mutually exclusive

why do most religious people focus on homosexuality When adultery made God’s top ten list

@SethDavisHoops Still here looking for your apology regarding diagnosing a man with a mental illness. You know - the kind thing to do.

Please be kind.

@jemelehill You might be interested to know he was in on it… especially as a “journalist” who would typically report on the facts of a story

To do this to a fan that chose to come see a 17-win team is unhinged.

@bklnfin3st One out of three isn’t a great score…

It’s also a sin to work on saturdays, have sex before marriage, wear multi colored cloth etc

@SethDavisHoops What diagnosis do you give him on his mental health?

Kid played an entire Sweet Sixteen game on a broken foot. Respect.

Ordered…

@BOSSportsGordo Actually much easier to pull in backwards and safer to pull out forwards. Give it a try and you’ll be converted

Serious question for people who back into parking spaces - what’s the point?

@marcminter They are difficult to find these days.

If you're traveling more than 30 minutes for church on Sundays, you ought to have really good reasons for driving past those churches that are closer to you.

“SEC is a dominant basketball conference” takes suddenly disappeared during the first half of that Tennessee Michigan game… until next year when the delusion starts up again.

@jemelehill If the bulls would outline what detrimental behavior occurred, maybe there would be less criticism. Until then, all we can assume is that his viewpoints are what caused this.

The people rallying behind Jaden Ivey claiming he’s being persecuted must have forgotten about the Orlando Magic’s Jonathan Isaac, who is anti-BLM, didn’t stand for the national anthem when his teammates took a knee, developed a clothing line that he said was an alternative to “woke” companies like Nike (his words), publicly criticized the White House under Joe Biden for Transgender Visibility Day and even spoke at Charlie Kirk’s Believer’ Summit. Still cashing NBA checks.

@SethDavisHoops What are the rules concerning a college basketball opinion writer diagnosing mental illness?

Hoping this is the last time it needs to be addressed, but there seems to be confusion as to what the rules are regarding contact between a coach and official. Many seem to assume that any contact between a coach and official by rule must result in a technical. This is not true. This is what's in the rulebook, specifically rule 10.2.h which says an unsporting Class A technical should be assessed to a coach or player who "disrespectfully contacts an official or makes a threat of physical intimidation or harm to include pushing, shoving, spitting, or attempting to make physical contact with an official." The phrases "disrespectfully" and "physical intimidation or harm" are by definition subjective. So it's up to the official in that situation to decide whether he is being disrespected or intimidated. The ref in this situation did not believe he was. Seeing as how the "contact" came right after Mullins' game winning shot, it's reasonable to interpret that Hurley was pumped about the shot and not trying to intimidate or threaten the official. That is my interpretation as well. Reasonable (and especially unreasonable lol) minds can differ, but to assert that the referee did not follow the rules in this situation is factually inaccurate. Thank you for you attention to this matter.

Currently shopping for a Jaden Ivy Pistons jersey…

I guess @SethDavisHoops got the memo… maybe an apology is in order to the man he said was mentally ill?

@MuseHoosier Where they both waived for “conduct detrimental to the team”? Or was only one?

Two athletes sharing their views with their audience. Both waived due to the controversy created. If you are enraged over one and empathetic towards the other, you may need to look in a mirror. #truthnuke

@EmmanuelAcho He said he was God? Or he just stated a biblically guided view on sex & sin. Growing up the son of a pastor & having an understanding of scripture are two very different things. It’s also highly inappropriate to attach mental illness to this - but maybe your mom was a therapist?

Jaden Ivey has to understand freedom of speech does not mean freedom of consequence. Also, you serve God. You’re not God. As the son of a pastor this topic means a lot to me and I’m praying for Jaden Ivey’s mental health. My full thoughts:
