I actually enjoy Stephen A Smith when he knows what he's talking about. If he knows what he's talking about I think he's a great debater and very funny at times. Now skip on the other hand I can't stand

I agree 1stSgt ... that's BS
A shout out to Tommy... GREAT THREAD!!!
I absolutely, despise (to the core) Kevin Stallings, Seth Greenberg, Christian Laettner, Steve Spurrier, Doug Gottlieb, Booby Knight, Tony Kornheiser, Clark Kellogg The BCS Bowl system and ALL D-Bags of the NCAA, who make-up and/or enforce the rules, fines and violations.
Oh... and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

How many times on here have I seen you say that you don't "hate" anything. . . Now it's a "Great Thread"????
HAHA... and you "STILL" haven't seen me say I "HATE" anything!!!
So yeah... it "IS" a great thread (it's all in what you make of it).... but again, "IF" you paid attention (which you hardly ever do), you would have noticed that I replaced the word "hate" with the word "despise". I just simply chose to use a different word to justify my participation... and my positive opinion of Tommy's thread. I made a conscientious effort, to avoid making any hypocritical comments (using the word "hate")... because I'm well aware of what you posted. I know my own posting history, for showing my steadfast, distaste for the word "hate" (especially, being directed at another human being). I have not always been that way, but in my older years, I've tried to improve on some personality flaws (it's a never-ending process... trust me). With that said... I can't allow you to make a hypocrite of me. Your spin (or lack of 'attention-to-detail') was a failed attempt to assassinate my character (and has been, very wisely, REFUTED)... so my stance on "hate" is (hereby) undeniably, validated.
Nice try though my friend.
For future references, you may find the following information to be very useful:
DESPISE:
de·spise [dih-spahyz] Show IPA
verb (used with object), -spised, -spis·ing.
to regard with contempt, distaste, disgust, or disdain; scorn; loathe.Synonyms
contemn, detest.HATE:
hate [heyt] Show IPA verb, hat·ed, hat·ing, noun
verb (used with object)
1.
to dislike intensely or passionately; feel extreme aversion for or extreme hostility toward; detest: to hate the enemy; to hate bigotry.
2.
to be unwilling; dislike: I hate to do it.
verb (used without object)
3.
to feel intense dislike, or extreme aversion or hostility.Again, """NOTICE""" the adjectives used to "emphasize" the differences in "meaning".... key words (adjectives) being "INTENSE", "INTENSELY", "EXTREME" and "PASSIONATELY"... or even the word "HOSTILITY".
Contrary to your belief, there is an actual difference. Sure, people can use a number of synonyms (words with "similar" meaning... but not, necessarily, exact). That doesn't mean all people mean a particular word the exact same way. One may use "hate" while another uses "despise" and BOTH may truly have "hate" in their hearts (and MEAN "Hate"). However, others may use those same words and mean them for what they "ACTUALLY" mean (like the way "I" intended... a less harsh meaning). I realize how freely that word gets used, so when I hear (or read) others use it (like in this thread), I take it with a grain of salt.... because I have no way of knowing what's in one's heart, when they choose to use that word.
I hope that clears things up for ya Brad (even the friendly sarcasm)... NO OFFENSE!!!
I have to defend myself from unwarranted, personal attacks.... I would expect YOU to do the same.
