just a question

[Magic_Johnson]

hello
this is my first thread
I follow the spurs they are on tv in france (since tp came)
and I started going to spurs forums
and I am surprise many fan don't like tp
even after a good game like sunday they find a way to bash him

I'm new so if someone can explain me, please?

[ducks]

I do not get it either!

[ducks]

I will admit though it was not one of his best games
but atleast 2 of those turnovers were not his fault!
all spurs played crappy in second half

[longrod]

Many fans are rednecks who hate the french because their parents were rednecks who also hated the french. They may have attended school, but rednecks are uneducable so it makes no difference.

Just ignore them like you would ignore a dogshit in a park.

BTW, Pop is NOT a redneck, his bashing of Tony is his way of caring...

Point guards are always under the most scrutiny from a fan base. They have (along with centers) the toughest job on the team. You read other team's forums and you'll find the same thing out of their fans regarding their point guards. The point guard is the first player blamed and the last to receive credit. The last point guard who was universally loved by their fans might have been Magic Johnson.

Spurs fans expect too much from all their players. Whileas some other NBA fans want their players to be at least decent.

[hater]

americans don't like the french

[ducks]

many people complained about david robinson when he was a spur

[Magic_Johnson]

[CosmicCowboy]

We like TP as he's one of the trio... some of us ... wanna kill him when he forget he's human being

[longrod]

I really don't like him either but, aside from that, your statement is a prime example of redneck mentality. May I clarify that being a redneck is not a universally desirable quality...

[bdictjames]

My history teacher bashes France for being useless in the 2 world wars. I dont know why but he despises them.

Hahah. Out of topic I just wanted to share. :lol

hehehehe ... you are getting a point here, but I personally disagree ... Manu is criticized so hard when he sucks ...

Nash is pretty well-loved.

[Shelly]

I don't get when people bitch that a point guard's assists are low...especially when the doofus he passed it to didn't make the shot!

[MadDog73]

Parker is only 25 years old...

He'll get better, and he's already one of the best point guards in the NBA.

[ObiwanGinobili]

and I am surprise many fan don't like tp

I like Tony Parker. I get mad at him when he fucks up, but i get mad at the other guys when they do too. And I am very proud of the progress hels made the last 2 seasons especially.

Stick around the forum for awhile - there are some people here that would love to trade manu, or just kill him off.
Personally I think it's all retarded. But i guess it's better for a fanbase to be able to discuss the teams flaws then pretend that everything is perfect.


french just don't like your president
what a coincidence. the Majority of americans think he's an idiot too. bull in a china shop.

[ATRAIN]

EVA likes Tony

[Mr. Body]

I began the season thinking Parker's days with the Spurs might be numbered, but he's turned out to be a gamechanger and in good stretches the most difficult Spur to guard, and so the most important. I feel his command of the game is stronger now than it ever has been. I'm a real believer in him now. Mistakes? Yes, but so many positives. Everyone makes mistakes.

[SA210]

french just don't like your president
:lol Most Americans don't either.

[MoSpur]

Welcome! I like Parker. I like all the Spurs, but I get on all of them when they have bad games, but realize they're human and will have a bad game from time to time.

Ask your stupid teacher what does (S)he think would have happened if the US was a neighbour of Germany, remember it took several world powers to defeat them.

[rwb]

Tony is half American, so most of the people here like him half of the time. How do you say "fickle" in French?

[ChumpDumper]

It's just that Tony sucks and is the devil, that's all.

[cornbread]

Tony is a young attractive guy who makes more money than all of us, his fiance is a sex symbol, he's from France, and he has the best job in the world AND he plays for the Spurs. He's just not going to be able to win with some b-ball fans.

Plus he raps.

[Bruno]

Parker is a ballhog and France sucks.

[smeagol]

:lol Most Americans don't either.
Wy didn't they vote hi out in '04 then?

[smeagol]

Parker is a ballhog and France sucks.
Nahhhh . . . it's Manu and the Argentines who suck the most around here

[Bruno]

Nahhhh . . . it's Manu and the Argentines who suck the most around here

:stfu

Manu is God, Oberto is Jesus and Parker is the antechrist.

[longrod]

Wy didn't they vote hi out in '04 then?

Because they don't vote.

[ArgSpursFan]

well I have a feeling that people are less harsh with manu than tony

well,Keep on reading the NBA forums and you´ll find out that Every time manu has an off night,all fans want to trade him.Fans are harder on manu tham on PT.

[DarrinS]

Because he's a dirty player.

[Sec24Row7]

We prefer the rap of Ron Artest.

[Man In Black]

Hey Ducks, France is better than Yuma!

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Fans were saying Manu < Manure two games into the Phoenix series.



Fickle fans who won't buy tickets to the game. San Antonio, what happened to my city?

[GrandeDavid]

french just don't like your president

I agree. I spent the New Year in Paris and absolutely loved it. I found the many people I met there to be very friendly and warm. I went there a bit leery, but left impressed. Paris rocks!

Also, when I went to the Adidas Megastore on Champs Elysees, the staff gave me mad love because I'm from San Antonio as they were big Parker fans. Was pretty cool!

[picnroll]

Nothing personal, the Spurs all suck unless they win. Unless of course you're Argentine in which case Parker sucks all the time, win or lose.

There's no explanation. You just can't make some fans happy. :madrun
