I Hate Dicky-J

by chrisjay84 on Dec 21, 2009 8:15 AM CST

There are few things in this world I hate. I hate mayonnaise. I HATE yams (although am quite fond of sweet potato fries, go figure). And I hate Richard Justice. Every Monday after a win, he rubs his readers' noses in it about how smart he is to never give up on this team. How he's driving the bandwagon that all us other fans are just jumping on. However, every week after a loss, he posts some facetious, smarmy, holier-than-thou column about how he just knew the Texans suck, and we're all sheep for believing the opposite. So I say this now, (because if you can't say it at Christmas when can you say it eh?), from the bottom of my black, cold, Texans loving heart, go fuck yourself Richard Justice.

They need to tear the Comicle’s sports section down to the ground and start from scratch. Steph, Lance, and Solomon can come back.

A Texans fan. Really. No, I'm not kidding.

we pretty much have the worst local sports writers in the country. Its even worse when you watch a show on NFL network and they have Mcclain giving his opinion on some dumb shit in his scratchy, “I just swallowed VYs load and my throat got infected from it” voice.

What world is Dicky living in?

He’s all over the map on this LSD trip. Some inane quote from All the President’s Men, WTH! As if we are supposed to think he is living in a world of espionage and intrigue? References to Bird Cage, and don’t tell me that he didn’t mean it…that guy has to be living in that world! Okay, I get his closing reference from Grantland Rice’s epic poem Alumnus Football which champions perseverance, sure.

Someone needs to administer Dicky a drug test, IMO.

I can’t defend this garbage.

I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?

Actually

I thought the quote from All the President’s Men was the only redeeming feature of the whole piece.

I'm a little slow

maybe you can explain the relevance to me….

I'm sure it was totally irrelevant

I just liked the reference because I liked the movie, is all.

Okay, I give you that

It was a good movie. I just don’t get DickyJ at all, regarding his LSD flashbacks…he is way out there. I can see throwing in some obscure references that make you think, but he is so way out, even the crazies like myself can’t quite figure it out. He was all over the place.

Also, in McClain's piece

He calls Keith Null and undrafted free agent. He was drafted in the 6th round.

I stopped reading the Comicle two years ago.

I remember having that little discussion with “The King” Solomon. Some of us called him out and he actually took the the time to stop by and explain his point of view. And he actually backed up his arguments. He deserves some props, but other than him and Steph; you can’t really rely on anybody else at the comicle.

Zachary Levine is good

For baseball coverage anyway.

Oh, im sorry if I didn't specify.

Im talking about the coverage for the Texans.

by Jordann on Dec 21, 2009 10:22 AM CST up reply actions

Lance Z

Is also very good. And at least stylistically, Dale Robertson is pretty good as well.

Anyone remember

Steve Campbell? Used to love reading what that guy had to say. Too bad he got re-assigned to just the Coogs.

I'm sure you're right about Justice

But I couldn’t say. I refuse to click on the links to his stories. If I read them and disagree, it still shows up on his page counter as if I love the guy.

Remember the Simpsons’ when Homer steals the huge donut and all the advertisments go Godzilla on the town?

Here here!

Exactly what I do, too.
We’re lucky they’ve got the courtesy “Justice:” before each of his shit piles so I know which ones not to click. If they stopped doing that, I’d have to stop going to the site altogether, and just get someone to copy and email Steph’s stuff to me.

Let's all make a solemn pact

Never to read anything he ever writes again. And let’s also never discuss him again. He courts the controversy because it drives readers his way.

rec'd

don’t feed the trolls, and don’t give attention to attention-whores.

He makes controversial comments to incite, its not his viewpoint at all. He doesn’t know where he stands on an issue until he decides which side will cause the most controversy and get him the most attention.
