I stand by my original opinion that it's a non-issue, and that if someone reads those quotes and it causes them not to play, then they most likely didn't want to play anyways.

We're talking about two humor-bases quotes on a sports game website - this isn't Congressional policy.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

I can light-heartedly agree that we disagree. It is not a matter of importance, so far we even agree.

It is of equal importance as the background-colour of the game, the type of player-faces we supporters can see, any logo that is used by BB and so on...

It is part of the face, the image BB has. And I believe image to be important in order to gain new users. So as a final remark let me stress my point: I do not care about these "quotes" but I do care about the way comments by users on the BB-Image are treated.

Cheers

Are they inside jokes?

Laugh-in was funny when it came out.

Is laugh-in still funny? probably only to its creators...

Laugh-in was dumb even when it came out, but as a kid it was sort of funny. However it is because of laugh-in that the original star trek was cancelled. (They moved ST to Friday nights to give laugh-in ST's cushy monday night) So I will forever be anti-laugh-in. Yes I am a nerd, I mean I spend 4-6 hours a day on this website, what did you expect?

I got your point though Plotts, it just struck a personal chord :P

I'll tell you who I don't like, 'not nerds'

Nerds are the only subset less fractal than hipsters, who for the record are perhaps worse than hippies.

A girl at my bank said I looked like a hippie because of my beard (which is superbly groomed) and I told her I was a neo-nonconformist, disestablishmentarianistic sci-fi junkie with a red beard.

That shut her up.

I actually cared only once when I spotted a face of one of my players there. Then it made more sense.

Maybe some famous NBA quotes? Something like these ones:

After Michael Jordan had scored a play-off record 69 points - I'll always remember this as the night Michael and I combined to score 70 points.
Stacey King

In my prime I could have handled Michael Jordan. Of course, he would be only 12 years old.
Jerry Sloan

I’m tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok.
Shaquille O’Neal

We have a great bunch of outside shooters. Unfortunately, all our games are played indoors.
Weldon Drew

But you have to understand, my beard is so nasty. I mean, it's the only beard in the history of Western civilization that makes Bob Dylan's beard look good.
Bill Walton

They say it about brothers, but I can guarantee everyone in Finland looks alike.
Charles Barkley

I've been rich and poor. Being rich is better.
Charles Barkley
