I don't consider that journalism or even valid criticism. Relating it to the world of politics, it's about as valid as Rush Limbaugh. Whenever an article title has the word "suckcore" in it, and tells the reader "we must hate Creed," any intelligent person's instant reaction should be a smug smile and a quick dismissal of any ideas brought forward.

That guy, Nick Woomer, was laughable. The only reason his "article" was ever published is because it was a University paper that has very low standards and relishes getting reactions out of people.

Anyone who thinks it's journalism is, frankly, pretty dim-whitted. </b>

Well said....Bravo!!!

I'm sorry ... I REALLY have to disagree with that one! There is nothing "good" about anything he says! He is always negative and goes out of his way to disagree with everyone. He just likes to argue!

:lol:

That one almost made me wet my pants!!!
Voice???? I thought we were talking about Britney Spears??? "Oh Baby, Baby!!" ... just think about how she sounds when she sings that line! She doesn't even use her real voice on the album!!
Imagine ... "Britney," "voice," and "musician" ... all used in the same sentence!!!
:lol:

:lol:

Not to split hairs, but it's what I do for a living

...the definition from the Merriam-Webster dictionary, while emphasizing instrumentalist, says:

A composer, conductor, or performer of music; especially instrumentalist.

I think it's safe to say a singer can also be considered a musician, whether that singer sucks or not.

OUCH had I been ever mean to you? To you personally? No? And I'm the one who is supposetly starts shit here, when it takes one person to have something good to say about me before before "Lech must die" party starts it's activity.

You people would be so bored here without a scapegoat like me lol

No ... in all fairness to you, you have never been mean to me personally and I was not trying to be mean to you. And by the way ...
I have never and would never jump on the "Lech must die" bandwagon. I think that is uncalled for.

I just get really annoyed when I read some of your posts. You are just always so negative ... and I don't understand why.

All I was trying to say is that it does seem as though you try to deliberately say things that bother most people here.

That is not to say that you are not entitled to your opinion ... just that sometimes you say things that are uncalled for.

I apologize if I offended you.

Very well said.

''Suckcore'' that's so lame...:lol:

TruBaBe · 08-11-2003, 08:35 PM

im sorry everyone... but i have to agree with Lechium on this one. the guy is entitled to his opinion. just because u dont agree with what he has to say doesnt mean you have to bash him and act like hes the worst person to ever walk the planet. give it a break. yes creed is a wonderful band, but just becuase someone gave them a bad review doesnt mean you have to have so much hate against him.

DangerousDan85 · 08-11-2003, 08:41 PM

i love to hate
