This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

It just feels fake with him. by revressbo
“Maui Brey” felt genuine. “Homeboy BK”, and whatever you want to call this, feel inauthentic. Like an awkward middle-aged dad trying to be cool to his teenage sons and friends. “I’m the cool coach.” Perhaps it feels fake due to purple-faced and the numerous throwing of players under the bus publicly in the past in BK 1.0. Admittedly, there’s been less of that in the new coat of paint BK, but it feels more like he’s suppressing his base instincts and trying to force a personality that isn’t actually his, and it’s a bit cringe-worthy because of that.
But whatever, if it gets recruits and results (and for the record, I don't really think it does either of those, but I don't think it hurts, mainly no effect), then who cares really.
