Pretty cool, Mavs are 3rd
http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/sports...franchiseRanks
Mavs should not be 4 in Stadium Experience. Me and my friend went to the season opener and he was racially profiled by Mavfans after they realized we were winning the game. Oh well, I guess this is just one more thing we have that the Mavs don't. Dallas is 11th on title track despite their record this season against top teams and a finals appearance last year? Should be 1st for all intents and purposes. Don't know why we're 12th on affordability. It gets more expensive in the playoffs but you can get decent upper level seats for $20 or less during the season on Ticket Exchange.
The first Philly team on there is the Eagles at #49.
The Sixers are at #115. :depressed
The f-ing Cowboys are 82Quote:

Why do the Mavs have a higher # than the Spurs for "titles won or expected"????
Just curious if you can elaborate on this. Seems to confirm a lot of my suspicions of the DFW region.Quote:

He was pissed about that the whole way home and I asked him if he wants to go back to D for the April game and he said no, because of what that fan said to him.Quote:

Maybe my friend was overreacting, I mean he has a right to be mad but not wanting to go back to Dallas b/c of that? Personally, I was walking around the AAC before the game in my Manu jersey and I got SO MANY "fuck the Spurs!" from Mavfans. I don't go to all that many Spurs games since I moved to San Marcos, but I went for Games 1 and 7 of the series last year and I didn't hear any Spurs fans talking smack at that kind of level. Maybe I wasn't sitting in the right section...who knows. Note the smack still continued after the game, no provocation from us...so who really knows why people are idiots.
My sole experience at AAC ended with Mav fan spitting on my friend's 13-year-old daughter.
This poll predicts the Spurs winning it all this year, since in 03 they were ranked third and won, and in 05 they were ranked second and won. Each year they were first they lost in the semis. Coincidence or Premonition. :tongue :flag:
Both the Mavs and the Wild (ranked 1st! LOL!) were higher in stadium experience than Wrigley Field and the Cubs.
I don't care who you are, who you're a fan of, or what sport you favor. There is no experience close to a game at Wrigley (aside from perhaps one involving the Green Monster). Nothing has ever approached that for me.
Seriously, any rating that puts the Texas Rangers above the Cowboys is worthless. The Rangers should be DFL...hands down.
And it's an odd-numbered year!Quote:

The Mavs fan kept trying to let it go and the office workers threw out some eloquent "white boy" comments and one actually tried to remove his Mavs hat. A scuffle ensued and security broke it up quickly. Granted, this was at a Spurs/Mavs game, and the Mavericks just beat you guys, but the entire situation was ridiculous and completely uncalled for. SA fans are known to be pretty aggressive.
This kind of thing most likely occurs even more often at Staples, I just have probably always just been surrounded by my fellow Laker fans and have never been witness to it.
Point being that these things are very typical of any arena in any sport where alcohol is served with opposing fans attending games. None of this is a reflection of the people in an entire city or area, it'e just everyday assholes being assholes.
spurs top 3 last 5 years?
<claps>
Yep that's how it happened. I still remember what he looks like. I'm a pretty laid back guy and he pissed me off. When I go to concerts @ the AAC I wear my spurs propaganda and I always get "f the spurs" all the time. I remember last year @ the last game the Spurs were in town I was sitting by an older lady that was a mav fan. Once I took my jacket off she saw my shirt and said "Oh, you're one of them". From that point on she was acting stupid towards me. Plus she was drinking. She was the type that was older, single, didn't go out much and couldn't hold her liquor well. She had on way too much makeup, wore gawdy jewelry and reaked of some Avon perfume. I kept my cool, but I remember her clapping hysterically when either Manu or Finley took a hard foul or got injured. She was actually cheering for it. We pulled away and started winning and she started getting mad @ me. She made the people that was with her get up and leave because of me. I could've been a prick and rubbed it in, but I knew it wouldn't turn out nice. Plus she was sloppy drunk. Hopefully, San Antonio fans act better. People are way more uptight up here in Dallas.Quote:

Don't bring the truth to this discussion! Spurs fans would prefer to think that all Dallas fans are bad and all San Antonio fans are good :rolleyes The intelligence of someone that actually bases their opinion of an entire fan base because of 1-2 bad experiences must be called into question.Quote:

I used to sit in the upper level at old Reunion arena for Mav games and some fans could get down right ugly up there. Anytime, I was down in the lower level it was always cool. I've only sat in the lower level at the AAC and have never seen or heard any bad behavior but I'm sure it goes on from time to time (probably even more so in the upper level).Quote:

I guess I had this perception of there being a lot of loud, obnoxious fans at Wrigley but it wasn't that way (that day at least).
Yeah, Dallas has a lot of bandwagon fans for sure.Quote:

That's also how I know the "fuck the Spurs" crowd weren't there back then, nor will they be there should the Mavs become a lottery team again.Quote:
