Message: [QUOTE="Hans Sprungfeld, post: 3057213, member: 181"] You won't miss much by not reading the whole thread. Almost out of the chute, it got diverted into intimations about Jalen that got bypassed for arguments about Ollie, then Ollie vs. Hurley, a veritable reunion of last year's partisans and apologists, largely in denial, sometimes on point. Whether or not to call out kids in the harshest language Penny used has been largely been characterized as a slam. Someare OK with it, and some aren't. There's been virtually no mention of the paragraph or so in which Penny says Davenport is one of the greatest kids in the world, that he's recently started getting curious about things said months ago, and that he's coming around, albeit with no guarantees. None of that contextual balancing seems evident in the overriding narrative that's being pushed around like a game of rock, paper, scissors with cheering sections. Boneyardin' [/QUOTE]
