"Just 15 or 20 more times, mister! I'm not kidding this time!"
You guys rip on me 13 or 14 more times and I'm out of here. ~basketball
You should be ashamed of yourselves!
Back in the driveway, we were nothing!
Now we've risen to the highest level, but you're throwin' it all away!
If you've forgotten what baseketball means to America, you have only to look at this board - the Malaka-Laka Balance Board of Trust.
Don't you see what we have here?
A game where guys with bad backs and bad knees can... get together and compete on the same field as guys that are all goosed up on steroids.
But more than anything, isn't this game about gettin' together with your friends and just havin' a good time?
I remember. I remember a long time ago, I didn't have anybody.
You guys took me in. I guess that's why it kills me to see you like this.
If we can't be friends... then the heart and soul are out of this game. Certainly out of me. I know I'll never get that back again.
We have sullied the waters of the Lagoon of Peace!
I'm begging you, for the love of our Caribbean brothers, dudes, stop this madness!
I don’t know why I hang out with you guys!
Your mom’s dating SQUEAK!
Dude
It's 2 times. The first 9 violations were assessed as a block (it was 9 separate tweets). So this is only his second warning.
Given that the judge doesn't want to get the case thrown out on appeal, two warnings is perfectly reasonable.
Look, buddy... Your reasonabilitiness is getting in the way of my pissedoffedness. Meet me back here in two weeks so one of us can say "See? I told you so!"
I'll have to check my schedule, I think I already have an angry screaming match scheduled around that time.
