Oh, come on! Don't hurt yourself patting yourself on the back!

Any back-up is going to get starts when the starter is injured. Its the natural order of things. You're seriously going to try to take credit for that?

The thread asked if Allen would steal starts this month. I believe you referred to it as wishful thinking? Well wish granted my friend, wish granted.

I'll be the first to admit when I'm wrong on something but ummm yeah I am gonna pat myself on the back thank you very much.

A back-up subbing for an injured starter isn't "stealing starts".

Jeez.

Just so I understand you correctly, you are saying that you predicted Elliott was going to go down to injury this month? If so... Here's another pat for you ... With 4 days to spare.

But if you were suggesting Allen would be able to steal starts based on Merrit... I'd holster those pats. Just say'n.

Jeez.

Sorry let me rephrase my wording...the original thread asked if he could "get" starts.

But I guess you can argue semantics if you'd like.

Um, ^this^ is a "semantic argument". LOL

You can claim that it's a semantic argument if you think that will help you save face, but those of us with a clue know better.

I'm not the only one calling you out for taking credit where it's not due.

The post was meant to point out the sarcastic irony but I guess if you gotta poo poo on somebody getting something right congrats

I tend to give credit where credit is due, but that's just me.

You know damn well what this thread was about, it wasn't about Allen subbing in for an injury, which is the role of any back-up in the league.

If you want to view that as a prognostic achievement, okay. Nice job.

You took one word I said and used it to break down my claim by arguing about the definition of a word. I think I know what semantics means thank you very much.

Sorry... Missed where you answered my earlier question... Did you predict an Elliott injury or did you predict Allen would Steal starts or did you predict Allen would "get starts?

I don't think Instant Karma is the one having trouble dealing with facts here. But perhaps I'm just missing something.

Or maybe you can blame it on "Being JAPANEEEEEEESE....." . Nice Avatar! Lol

Hahaha thanks! Who doesn't love a little Muni?

I posted earlier in the thread that I thought Allen would have the better share of the tandem by January. Whether that proves to be true yet, we don't know. But...that post was called wishful thinking, which I was trying to point out was kind of ironic that it's starting to come true in part. That is all.
