Former Local Star now playing with Bulls

Nice writeup in Winston-Salem Journal about a former local collegiate star that has landed with the Bulls.

This seems to be the standard… in every city except for one.

Over40NINER,

You didn’t mean Chapel Hole the ACC capitol city, did you ?

As many of you know, I have to now be careful about how I word my statements.

Over40NINER,

I understand your view. But, these days one couldn’t say anything without offending some sort of group or person(s). It’s so exhausting trying to watch for everything, then still some idiot will complain about PC this and PC that anyway. I’m old school. I figure I’ll say what ever the hell I want and let those idiots moan and groan then.

I guess you don’t find this to be adequate coverage about a former local player from today’s Observer…

The Charlotte 49ers fans in the audience probably weren’t too happy the Bulls left Eddie Basden inactive Wednesday. Coach Scott Skiles indicated he would have activated him had Basden showed up for the early bus to the arena for extra work.

Freedom of speech is the foundation of democracy. Go for it. It feels good.

A day late and a quarter short. I think it’s better for them to cover the cannon ball event to collect more coins.

The majority having more and bigger guns than the minority is the foundation for democracy.

It’s a shame you don’t believe in it.

Yea, you’re all for it as long as you and those other biased chapel hill grads on your staff get to spread a bunch of propaganda, but you are opposed to others expressing their opinion. You’ve taken any respectability right out of journalism.

Tell us Mike, why do you not want readers of your paper to know a 4 year member of the Niner squad is now playing for the Bulls? You refused to write about it when he made the team and you refuse to now.

One more question that I’ve been asked by at least 5 posters on this board. Why do you post here? You are definitely not a Niner fan. You never hesitate to tell us.

It’s Charlotte, what do you expect? The fans cheered the loudest during introductions for the absolute worst player in either starting lineup by a large margain.
