Welcome to the Blog

"Beasley Has Homer Fans" is a blog dedicated to showcasing the world's biggest Homer fans and the player who helps attract them - Michael Beasley of the Miami Heat.

For those of you who don't know, Michael Beasley is a 21 year old Forward from Kansas State University. Playing for a bad team in College with no supporting cast allowed him to showcase his talent on a losing team, where he averaged over 25ppg 12rpg and 2bpg. Nice stats, no? But he never played with another great player or for a chance to win for championship; you can see how he would struggle by being drafted with a team that already had a superstar in Dwyane Wade where serious basketball had to be played. After two years with the Heat, he still a bit inconsistent, having one solid month of basketball followed by 3 good games recently.

A "Homer" is someone who is so enamored and fascinated with something or someone that they become delusional and lose all sight of what is real and factual. Another unique characteristic of a Homer is that they always have an excuse lined up and believe that anything wrong with what they are obsessed with can be explained through an excuse. Needless to say, you're gonna see a lot of examples of what a true "Homer" is as I break down some of the comments made by the Beasley Homers on Ira Winderman's Miami Heat blog.

What's worse than a Homer, you ask? A "Troll." A troll is someone who goes on to a forum/blog where people go to discuss a topic (ex: Miami Heat basketball on Ira's MIAMI HEAT blog) and begins to change the topic in order to ruin everyone else's good time (ex:

Heat fan #1: The Heat did good, without Dwyane Wade they managed to beat the Grizzlies and the Nets, and came close against a loaded Dallas team. Good job by the team to step up. We're getting a chance to see what they're capable of when asked to pick up in Wade's absence.
Heat fan #2: Yeah, Beasley/Haslem/Chalmers/Cook/JO were all huge tonight. I'd like to see how they continue to play once Wade gets back, and see if Wade can also make an adjustment to get those guys in their rhythm.
Beasley Homer: (on Beasley's first good game in a month) Beasley is sooo awesome, this is what happens when you don't have Haslem playing and you play Beasley at PF for 40 minutes. This guy is dominating and outplaying every PF he faces night-in-night-out (Beas is averaging 16ppg/6rpg. Clearly, that can't be true). If it wasn't for the knee brace that Erik Spoelstra makes him wear, he'd be high-flying / running the court / rebounding / dunking on everyone (the irony is that he rarely has shown to be capable of any the aforementioned skills).
Beasley Troll: Beasley would be doing so much better if not for Spo/Haslem/Wade/Chalmers and those guys need to be fired or traded. And fuck you if you don't agree with me.

A troll doesn't know how to express themselves, so they resort to vulgar language in their statements and replies, much like a how a spoiled prepubescent child gets when they want something.

Well, that's the introductary. Stay tuned for more...
