According to moodookies, this is a THUG:

QUOTE

Remembering Marvin in the classroom March 29, 2005 Donna Keough-Downum, an English teacher at Bremerton High, wrote this letter to Marvin Williams, in care of The Sun. Williams, the talented star from Bremerton is on his way to the Final Four with North Carolina. Dear Marvin, I realize that you are kinda busy playing in this big basketball tournament, but I thought that if you had the chance to read anything these days, it would be the sports page. It's been more than four years since you entered my early-morning freshman English class, and upon observing my mere 5-foot, 2-inch stature, offered to place the date on the 8-foot whiteboard. From that first day of school when you asked, "Could I help you with that, ma'am?," you appointed yourself as the daily date-changer for the remainder of the school year. (And by the way, thanks for directing your brother Demetrius to follow suit when I had him for the same course a couple years ago.) We had some great times together wading through the worlds of Poe, Dickens and Shakespeare. You were my official assistant when several of us went to Seattle to watch a live performance of "A Christmas Carol." I took advantage of your then-6-foot-6 heightto keep track of our group on the ferry, the bus and at ACT Theatre. Remember when you convinced me that you should read the part of the nurse in " Romeo & Juliet"? You respectfully — and wisely — reminded me that in Elizabethan times, a man indeed would have read all of the female parts since women weren't allowed on stage. With standardized testing time part of our own March madness in the world of public schools, I recently shared another "Marvelous Marvin" anecdote with my students. I so enjoy reminiscing about the spring of 2001 when you raised your hand from your favorite back corner of the classroom to inquire, "Mrs. D., if the kids in Washington state have to take the Iowa test, do the ones living in Iowa take the Washington test?" At the time of frosh basketball tryouts when you brought me the mandatory grade check, I promised to put in a good word for you with the coach. There was never any doubt that you would make the team, but you didn't allow my ignorance regarding your athletic skills to override your consistently polite attitude. You simply grinned and said, "Thanks a lot." Then do you recall our time in the vocational lab when freshmen were instructed to choose a career path? You told the counselor that you planned to be a professional basketball player, and although she and I entertained the notion for a few moments — we told you to select a more realistic option. As graciously as always, you humored us right back and did as requested. Marvin, your talent has earned much-deserved positive press. But you also are fondly remembered by many for your courtesy, your kindness and your pleasant demeanor. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of my class, of Bremerton High School and of our Kitsap community. In a land where Husky purple and Cougar crimson abound, there has been a recent surge of Tar Heel support. We are all so proud of you and are rooting for UNC to continue all the way to the top. Your jersey says No. 24; to many fans you represent No. 1. Warmly, Mrs. Downum

Lee and co. hate kids like this, but idolize violent, no-class clowns like Julius Hodge.

We'll get to meet another THUG after the Final Four. You may be suprised. Or maybe not

Geeze sz, do you want to hold Marvin's hand or something!


And you said the "word" again.

If they were so fond of each other, you'd think that Mrs. Downum would've been able to track her favorite nurse down directly instead of having to post a letter in the newspaper.

Sounds like somebody's been shagin their teacher.

Isn't it funny how when this douchebag wants to make a State thug referral he has to go back to Jule's freshman year (and it's still a weak argument), and when anyone wants to make a hole thug referral all they have to do is go to last week's blotter?

So, all this article is really saying (besides that he was knocking his teacher), is that McCants, JWad, Scott and crew are having to work a little harder to turn him into the best unc thug he can be. JamesON would have been so much easier, I know. Crap, if MWill doesn't comeback next year, he may never reach the level of thug that Rasheed has maintained for years now. I'm sure this is very worisome for the holes. I mean, where would they be without their "swagger"?

Are we actually going to call the kid who bagged groceries in suburban washington over the summer, came to school instead of going to the pro's when he could have been a top ten pick, and has as far as I can see done nothing wrong, a THUG?

Do you take medicine to become such a dickhead or is it just a natural symptom of attending unx?!!! What a PUSSY!



After the State/kurlina game in ch, I called him a showboater and said that he looked like a thug with that hand-behind-the-head hotdog dunk. What was that, 2 months ago? You're really reaching, tool. What a weak crock of shit.





BUT... OTOH, I find it hilarious that you're so hellbent on trying to one-up me that you would go to the trouble to look that up and start a thread on it. And what's even funnier, is that rather than come out and just confront me from the get-go, you use this bullshit fluff piece to try to bait me into saying something. Wow - you sure are crafty there, capt. bullshit. LMAOAU!!!!!




Please play again.

Thanks again, though... really... for starting a thread entirely devoted to trying to one-up me...










... even though you failed miserably.

Do you have a problem with spacing or something? I guess you think if you space your bullshit out enough it will somehow appear to resemble a rational thought.

You called Marvin a THUG out of the McCants mold after your sorry ass wuffies were taken to the woodshed and now, instead of being a man, you're manipulating your words. You are a pussy, as if that even needed stating.

QUOTE

No, you said that he SHOWED he was a THUG due to the dunk.

Be a ######ing man, dude. I feel like Grundy all of a sudden, like I'm beating a girl around.

Hey sz, one good deed does not an un-thuggish person make.


If he plays basketball at unc, there is a 99.99566323% chance that he IS a thug.


Enjoy that bowl of STFU.

I see you enjoy facing yourself, capt. bullshit. Go back and reread the post - it dealt with the showboating dunk (no mention of off-court behavior). IOW, he's an on-court hotdog just like mccancer (diamond sign, posing, throatslash, etc.). But by all means, keep arguing that the hand-behind-the-head wasn't showboating, numbnuts. The fact that you read it to mean that murvin is also a thug off-court (a la mccancer), only serves to indicate that you yourself, despite your constant denial, view mccancer as a thug as well.


It won't be long before the truth comes out about that one, too, btw.

If that dunk was hot doggin then everyone is hot dogging. Melchioni and Redick both make a cocky little expression and raise their arms after a big three pointers or freak out after a made shot, Hodge pounds his chest and pops his jersey after big baskets. Everyone does it. Who cares? If I could dunk like Marvin Williams I'd be "showboating" too.

I think that it all hinges on whether a championship is won.

IF they win...I say that everybody that CAN go WILL go, with May teetering.

If they don't, I say that only Felton or McCants goes, but not both.

Who actually gives a shit what you think, flapjack?

But just to play along (and edumacate you), there's a difference in hotdogging during the shot and showing emotion after a (crucial) made shot. If you can't see the difference, you're stupid. (redundant?)

Mrs. DOWM 'EM!?!
Down what? Tootsie Rolls?!
And you're gonna try to tell me this is for real?!


And if it is are we gonna see her when she gets out of jail for riding 14yos saying she wants to have Marvin's baby?!

Seems like over the last three years this thing of 30something white teachers bangin' underaged black boys has gotten a little out of hand.

If Mrs Down 'Em really is one of his teachers why didn't she call his mom and get his school address to send that letter to?

I have to agree with paxno's assessment. CP's not a punk but rather a model citizen off the court and should be given respect.

Melchioni and Redick don't limit it too only crucial shots. After every shot Melchioni makes he gets all kinds of excited and freaks out. Marvin puts his hand behind his head on an open dunk and he's a showboating loser. I can bank on the fact that if this was shelden williams or JJ Redick or Julius Hodge no one would even have brought it up except for maybe UNC fans.

Redick did it during the FSU game, where they were pretty well ahead that entire game.

He did it to intentionally jeer the fans that were jeering him.

I don't see a problem with it, just like I don't see a problem with most other people doing it. If you DESERVE to do it, then, by all means, do it. When the MSU guy dunked on Redick to go up 11 (IIRC), he went crazy and started hitting his chest. He deserved to do so. NOW...if you're someone who isn't upper-tier, and doing shit like that, it's showboating that shouldn't be done. Melk, for example, has no business doing anything after ANYTHING unless it's a go-ahead three late in the game or some shit. That's like Quentin Thomas moonwalking after a good assist. Just dumb.

That goddam showboatin' white boy. All those 3 pt shootin', fundamental bball playin', two hand passin', set shot shootin', good grade gettin' honkies are RUINING COLLEGE BASKETBALL!

Well, when the bit players start freaking out over something that's of little significance, then it's going to the dogs.

I don't much care for ANY show boating EXCEPT for dunks. I think you're there to put on a show, but for goodness sakes act like it's been done before. Three pointers have been made, sick dunks have been dunked...you ain't the first one to have ever blocked a shot, or dunked on someone's head, or made a clutch shot. Just act level-headed about it. That's just my opinion though.

Good post, hoc.

Of course. But that would ruin college basketball as we know it... which is quietly turning into a mini-NBA. Who the hell wants to watch Stanford play Wisconsin? We'd much rather watch unc play Louisville or NC A&T.

^^
Actually, that's probably the only post I've ever come close to agreeing with you on. Nothing wrong with being excited after hitting a big shot, but nowadays it seems like half players have some post-shot schtick that serves no purpose but to say LOOK AT ME! Folks are getting sick of it, plain and simple.




I can tolerate jersey-pulling; that seems to at least indicate school/team spirit. Hand-behind-the-head dunk, diamond sign, throat slash, etc. = LOOK AT ME! = HOTDOG.

^
Excellent example! Hodge must have just made a crucial shot. Notice no throat slashing, no diamond sign, no pointing at himself... just a little exuberant fist pumping. Possibly from the last Wake game.

Do you have on file murvin's hand-behind-the-head, or mccancer's throat slash, or mccancer's diamond sign?

Hodge doesn't showboat...umkkay. What was I thinking.

I guess, as usual, you weren't thinking. I never said Hodge never showboated - stop making up 'faks'. Never seen him hotdog a shot, throat slash, or flash gang signs though. Too bad you can't say the same about murvin and mccancer.

Marvin put his hand behind his head once on a breakaway dunk and you're all upset.

Hodge fist pumps, taunts the crowd, taunts players, unties shoelaces....ELBOWS players and was suspended by the ACC. Hell hit hit Ewing in the face with the ball this year.

As far as on-court antics, Hodge takes the cake as the biggest hotdog in the ACC, if not the country.

Continue berating Marvin, it's funny, especially coming from a Hodge fan...of all people.

No, dumbass - it's you that's upset. You're the one pissing and moaning because ONCE, 2 MONTHS AGO I said that the h-b-t-h shit made him look as thuggish as mccancer... and it does. You're the squealy-ass that brought it up, and even went so far as dedicating this lame-ass thread to it in a feeble attempt to one-up me. Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm still not impressed. Now, stop whining like a schoolgirl... you make people want to throw up.

I don't care that you aren't impressed. If someone was making me out to be a moron, I wouldn't be impressed either.

You said it 2 months ago and you're defending it to the death now. It's hilarious.

This is simply another illustration of the double standard you jackoffs practice. You denigrate Marvin as a THUG yet you will not apply the same criteria to your own players.

QUOTE

If you didn't contradict yourselves on a daily basis, there would be no need for me to point it out.

I thought this was about Marvin?

Is the hand behind the head dunk really ruining College basketball for all eternity. This is ridiculous. The only reason you are complaining about it is because it was done by a UNC player. If it was anyone else on your own favorite team would you still complain about it? I doubt it. Its just a little flare added to a wide open dunk. Who really gives a shit. Remember dunking itself used to be "showboating" as well.
