Official: Nets' fall way short of Finals

So 'Homer' was born at these forums?

I'm not 100% sure about that... the first person I saw use it was Air Gordon, and I doubt he would've used it because of the poster "Homer".

Itd be cool if it was, ive seen homer used in this context at a few other forums... (probly by NLSC members though )

One might suggest that it's the Simpsons writers' goal of introducing "Homer" as something other than a proper noun (specifically to have "pulled a Homer") into the English language, but more accurately it is indeed a reference to a former member whose posts about his favourite team were passionately biased.

Yeah thats what I thought. I can't actually remember any of his posts though. Lol, I knew about the Simpson's definition of "Homer", I love that episode, mainly because Magic Johnson is in it .

"Looks like I just pulled a Homer!"

After slipping on water and having the ball fly out of his hands, off a ref's head, and into the basket for the game winning three pointer in Simpsons epsiode 5, 3rd season.

Where's the picture benji? There's got to be a picture of it when it's a Simpson's reference.

DaTruth, you're the one who doesn't want to move on. You're whining because people here don't like you.

Apparently you don't listen to what you say.

I did move on. Then I was getting all this bull shit, (While NOT talking about Paul Pierce) and then I explained why everyone doesn't like me WHICH included talking about Pierce. Now, that I mention his name, you guys go crazy.

I'm not trying to piss anyone off, people are just trying to piss me off.


I'm done arguing. This is ridiculous.

Homer is far far far from an NLSC invention. Homer is used in Indiana even more so then the word bias. "I can't really decide who to root for (Celtics vs. Pacers) because I'm such a Larry Bird homer, so I always loved the Celtics." "My brackets always suck because I'm a homer towards southern teams."

Homer just means being biased towards your home.

Homer is use in almost every forum I've been to. 2k was saying it long ago.

Apparently you don't listen to what you say.

I didn't, because I was writing

If you really moved on, then you wouldn't made that post about why people didn't liked you.

Yea, Homer has been around for quite a while, I don't even think it started on the internet.

Anyways, New Jersey has been crazy lately, and the best thing about them is that they're winning through very good defense as opposed to above average defense and a lot of scoring from Vince.

I was explaining why becomes someone else had brought it up.

I thought you were done arguing?

That wasn't argueing. I was reasoning. I was explaining to him why.

Shh. Fine, I guess THIS post is argueing. Now move on chumpy.

argueing

Hurry. Change your spelling.

Chumpy.

Datruth...seriously..your ranting is annoying. You might wanna think about seriously moving on from this topic...just a little recommendation from your local mod.

I was watching the Hawks game with fun then quickly turn pissed

We play our ususaly suffiating defense in the first 3 quarters, and then we got too cocky. I think we gave up 37 in the fourth. Again to the hawks. *nodding head*

I just like ending arguements so I don't get shit from people over and over.

But yes, you're correct. I'm done with this thread.

Correction, you're done with your "if I'm bias" discussion, but the Nets' push to the Finals will live on. 13 in a row baby. I'm still mad as hell after that Hwak game.

when i say "topic"..i mean your ranting about pierce and no one liking you. I think your views have been well documented on the forum about it. Do not reply to this.

I stand corrected. I haven't encountered the term anywhere else and the Homer story fits. There goes his claim to fame.

Ah, excellent. Haven't made one in a while.



"Looks like I pulled a Homer!"

I wonder which one of those bitches in that pic gave him HIV/AIDS.

All of them.

Anyway, narrow win tonight against ATL. Stop slacking, VC.

VC wasn't slacking. It was Frank who pull him out of the first 6 minutes of the 4qt because he thought the game was over. You can't blame him. I bet you all of us thought it was over after the 3th, even the players, since most of them were slacking and turning the ball over ball over. After he came in, he save the day again. He made a 3pt after the lead was cut down to 1 and momemtum was stritch to the Hawks. VC da man!

at Yohance's remark about the Laker girls.

No hard feelings towards anyone by the way. I just want some respect here.

You don't earn respect you, fucken take it.
