For someone who's name was Analytical, you sure weren't.
They should be used to it, they aren't the lolraptors for nothing.
All eyes on Jeremy Lin --> Makes a huge speech about gays being bad --> Fans follow and agree.
a gay person would be affected. And a non-gay person would judge him.

if you see me in a fight with a bear, don't help me fool, help the bear!
did he do that?
Huh? What makes you think he's even anti-gay?

It saddens me that there are people out there who would actually undermine his accomplishments just because he is a Christian.
*shakes head*
I am very interested in his development... hopefully he can maintain and even better, improve!, his level of performance. I hope he can achieve big things.

I never said he was anti-gay. It was just the example richiek gave that Tideas replied to.

You assume he's going to do this just because he's a Christian?

A Harvard grad like Lin wouldn't be dumb enough to call out gays in New York City, absolutely no chance. Tebow and John Rocker have the brains of fucking cinderblocks, they would do something like that.

why would a gay person be affected by what lin says?
you have issues if you let some nba player affect you like that

Unless you're joking, there aren't too many bigots in Cambridge, lest you forget the Manray in Central Sq?
Because if I'm assuming that most of his fans would agree with whatever he says on public. Its his social power that I'm talking about not himself.
Anyways I'm going to end this, getting out of hand, especially when no one understood what i meant.
WorstGAF: only haters.

lol I like Lin; ergo, I will do and think whatever the fuck he tells me to. SMH.
Late to the party GAF
Thinks they're special and :cajun
If only it were Omar Samhan blowing up instead of Lin
Yeah, Palo Alto is a wretched hive of scum and homophobia.

Stanford is full of Republicans.
If you wish to have a good liberal education you go to Cal.
If you want to become the next John Yoo you go to Stanford.

John Yoo supports gay marriage.

So anyway, enough of the gay/politics, how about that awesome basketball player Jeremy Lin, huh?
The New York media to be specific. They are pushing Lin in everyone's face, hard not to expect people to start hating Lin.

I know that this happens somewhat often over a regular season, but the guy is confident and playing with gusto right now.
would've been so much better if they were losing, so that he didn't have the guarantee of OT to fall back on.
meh i don't think this is anywhere close to tebow mania
it will most likely cool off in the next couple of weeks as well
You didn't watch the game, they were losing, guess who brought them back...
shumpert
"He scored 12 points, including New Yorks last six, in the fourth quarter as the team rallied from a 17-point first-half deficit. Lin finished with a game-high 27 points and a personal-best 11 assists."
Try again.

it wasn't lin that brought them back.

i was only talking about the last shot. he took his time with that thing, wasn't really under the pressure of a lost game if he didn't sink it.
i'm sick of him already and i just learned about him this week.

Jose Calderon's turrible defense is what brought them back
Now the Life Long Linners are jubilant over a win against the Excremento Kings

After 7 wins and several personal record broken, people are still hating like crazy. Not everyone is caught in this hype, but seriously, the guy won the game for Knicks and the first thing they wanna talk about is his turnovers.

You wouldn't want to step into the NBA thread.
Fabricating anti-gay stories, saying Cambridge is a hotbed of bigotry, insulting his taste in music? I think Mayweather is the latest Gaffer to manipulate multiple accounts.

If he beat the Mav and Heat, then hell yeah he can walk on water. lol

yeah, this is just like when ramon sessions appeared on sports illustrated 4 years ago when he averaged nearly 20 apg over 5 games for the bucks... or when mike james got serious media coverage when he was averaging 25 ppg, 7 apg on great percentages for a couple weeks back in 05/06. o wait, neither of those guys got much media attention at all.
I am just bitter because I've been saying all along that Lin is a decent player who deserves to be in this league, but he's gone from being totally irrelevant to being hailed as a superstar.... just insanity. /basketball hipster
e: add Darren Collison to the list. guy barely gets any minutes until Chris Paul is injured. Suddenly he's scoring 20+ ppg and getting around 10 apg in his rookie season. Totally on fire. People start saying the Hornets should get rid of Paul and look to a Collison future. even though he got some media coverage, it wasn't nearly to this extent.

Raymond Failton averaging 18/9 in D'Antoni's offense even though he's a fat loser who sucks at basketball.
