***I generally respond to strongly held beliefs like A with a question: If you could put odds on it, what would be the odds of me changing your mind about anything? I would put those odds at zero. If you're honest, you would, too. Based on that, what's the point of replying with any substantial defense? I'm not going to convince you to change your mind, and vice versa. Should we really go back and forth a dozen times just to prove that?

- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Basketball-related deletion discussions. -- • Gene93k (talk) 15:22, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
- Keep — Coach of an annual powerhouse in NCAA D2. Sources are only necessary for direct quotes or material that is being challenged. Nominator has a history of antipathy towards me that suggests this might be a bad-faith nomination. Kurt Weber (Go Colts!: 14-0) 16:00, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
