5 Takeaways from the McD All-Star Game

Opinion is that she will not come to UConn.

This is not opinion - "I think from what I've heard she wants to be the instant star".

Find some quotes to back that up or don't state it. She NEVER said that.

Show me where I said that she said anything.

Show me where I said that she said anything.

So you admit that it is only gossip and not anything reported from any professional or reliable source.

"I think from what I've heard she wants to be the instant star".
This is even worse because you are basing your "opinion" on what? Things you heard?? Where? Can you be more specific?

Sorry, but I find this inuendo a little disgusting.

And an opinion based on rumor and not fact is a very weak opinion.

And it borders on violations of Boneyard protocol or rules if I remember correctly. What you are speculating is harmful to Diamond's reputation. It is a comment without evidence pointing towards potentially excessive egoism.

-"Similar to trashing is making harmful speculation. This is spreading non-substantiated (i.e., unconfirmed through a reliable source) rumors that could prove harmful to someone's reputation. Examples of harmful speculation would be claiming someone is pregnant, implying a relationship between a player/coach or player/player is harmful to a team or guessing that a recruit does/doesn't like someone based on sketchy knowledge. In order to make a statement that is detrimental in some way towards a player, coach, parent, etc there must be a reliable source (newspaper article) to back up the claim. A reliable source is not the cousin of an AAU teammate."

This is America; read the 1st ammendment sometime.
Last I heard everyone has a right to an opinion.
I don't have to justify it to you or anyone.
Ask a moderator if it violates BY protocol.

And I have a right to call you out for harmful speculation. You continue to do this with the DeShields recruitment and I believe you need to stop.

And there is no 1st ammendment in a message board. The mods set up the rules and can control it any way they see fit.

You were asked several times exactly where you heard she wanted to be "an instant star" and you have only responded just now, with vagueness. IMO that is irresponsible. Actually worse than irresponsible, but I'd be violating BY rules by going further.

No, no,no. There is no right to an opinion on a bulletin that is held and operated by private ownership. Sorry you are as wrong about that as your statement about DD. The first amendment protects your right to speech free from government intrusion.

Again your comments directly impact Diamond's reputation.

I assume the moderators are doing their jobs. Why don't you?

I'm sitting here on my day off when I came in from changing the oil in my car and mowing the lawn.

If you mean teaching and preaching then think about this,

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.​

What does this mean? - Answer.

We should fear and love God that we may not deceitfully belie, betray, slander, or defame our neighbor, but defend him, [think and] speak well of him, and put the best construction on everything.​

I assume the moderators are doing their jobs. Why don't you?

Even this simplest of statements you can't get right. I wasn't asking you what you are doing today - I couldn't care less.
I was asking you to also assume the moderators are doing their jobs.

Moderators are not here 100% of the time. All three work. I expect they will do their job as always and do it very well. Your intent was less than clear but that is why the present disagreement exists isn't it, a lack of clarity not just to me but DD, speedoo and I suspect others, too.

You don't see anything wrong with posting what you have about Deshields for everyone to see, including her? You have accused her, based on "hearing it" of being a selfish player only interested in being a star. You don't think that is wrong?
