Quote:No, you can't make that assumption. There's a vast gap between accepting a statement vs. claiming it's a lie. It's fine that you state your case that you don't believe that Kotite cut Jimmy Smith because of 'bad hands,' and you make a good argument. I just criticize your claim that TMD made it up, based on a scout report that says nothing about what Kotite said at the time, and a failure to find a 20-year old press release.


 

By all means, challenge TMD to come up with proof. His claim can and should be disregarded without such proof.

That is the exact same logic you are using to defend TMD's statement. The burden of proof is on TMD to back up his claim.

 

I have every right in the world to accuse TMD of making up his claim. He has the opportunity to back up his claim, yet he has mysteriously disappeared much like the many other times he has thrown out a bogus statement and gets called out.

 

This is what he does. It's classic trolling. He turns threads that are designed to discuss actual football into arguments over how much crap he can pull out of his rear.
