Well Dallas does have idiots for sportswriters but let's get shit straight, though. Dallas will forever and ever and EVER be a football town. The Mavs can win 6 rings in a row and they will still be a distant second to the Cowboys. So what you saw in the DMN should not be surprising.

Good call.
I've been going to Addison & North Dallas bars to watch Mav games for years now and have never encountered any fans like that but I'm sure there are exceptions. Maybe, I'm just in my own little world and don't notice it when I'm watching the games? That is lame for anyone to cheer an injury.

Re: It couldn't happen to a bigger pack of jackass fans
I cheered for Houston (even after they beat the Spurs in '95), because that team was nothing but class, from Hakeem Olajuwon down to Clyde Drexler to Rudy Tomjanovich (plus, they had the balls to kick cancer Vernon Maxwell off the team). I was always happy to see guys like Hakeem succeed, and it was nice to see Drexler finally get that ring.
With Dallas, fuck them. I hate their fans. Jason Terry is a piece of shit. Who punches another man in the fucking nuts? Jerry Stackhouse acted like an ass to Finley last year. Cuban disrespected my whole fucking city, so it's so sweet to see that he cannot buy the championship he wanted so badly. Josh Howard can go fuck himself after the flagrants he's committed on the Spurs.
I don't know which is sweeter... how Dallas lost last year, being up 13 with 6:00 left of game 3 with a 2-0 lead in the Finals and a title within arms length, or in the most memorable upset and greatest show of pussiness in NBA history in getting dominated by a team whose best player was going on one leg. All I know, is that Dallas has lost in the worst possible way imaginable the last two seasons, and I'm ecstatic that Cuban and his loser fans have to suck on that. Fuck you all, the way you came on this board last year and shit all over my city, mimicking your faggot owner.

That's all that is required...a small qualification that doesn't throw everyone under the bus. Well done!

Based on the sample we have had in this forum I'd say the characterization is fairly accurate.

I've hung with coworkers and watched games at about five different sports bars in and around Dallas.
Last night I watched fans openly cheer injuries to Baron Davis and SJax, and boo when they returned to the court.
I wore Spurs gear to a Mavs game earlier this year (GS ironically) and half the section I sat in (that was close enough to say something) spent the entire second half talking trash to me about being a Spurs fan and completely ignored the game.
And then you've got all the idiots on this site trashing everything Spur that are Mavs fans.
You've got an owner that has trashed SA, the city, and the Riverwalk, and spent the last two days running smack about Nellie.
You've got a hot head guard who enjoys shots to the groin, bulldog takedowns in the corner of the court, etc.
You've got a guy in Howard who has single handedly committed more flagrant fouls against SA than the rest of the league combined in the last 3 years.
How big a sample size do I need?

Re: It couldn't happen to a bigger pack of jackass fans
New verb: Sports teams no longer "choke".
If a favorite collapse to an inferior team or a team with a large lead ends up losing at the end, they have not choked, they have "Dirked".

What do the highlighted items have to do with the Mav fans? Hey...I don't want to argue with you about this...I'm just saying that to throw and entire fan base under the bus based on you going to a game or two and watching a game at a bar doesn't make much sense to me. I've had stuff thrown at me and yelled at me (w/o even wearing Mav gear) at different Spurs games in San Antonio yet I don't think all your fans are that way. I've read the most ridiculous and hateful posts on this board from Spurs fans yet I don't think the majority of Spurs fans are that way. Should I?

Was it Jason Terry or Josh Howard who deliberately ran into Fabricio Oberto, giving him heart problems? Screw the Mavericks!!!
On a side note? Where can I find a black Michael Finley t-shirt with his name and number on the back and the Spurs logo in the front?

I mention that stuff because the few decent Mavs fans I know point to it as the reason why the majority of Mavs fans are such assholes.
They see their asshole owner and asshole players doing shit, and that entitles them to be assholes as well.

Ok.

Re: It couldn't happen to a bigger pack of jackass fans
It has to hurt, I remember Spurs losing upsets to Jazz, Rockets and getting swept by the Lakers badly one year but at least we now have the memories of 3X championships with another a realistic possiblity.
This however is a logrithmic step above this and probably the most shameful loss ever by a heavily favored team in a series (not just one game) and so badly at that.
I cannot imagine how shocked many fans feel but with Dirk as the center of that team I wonder (kind of like the Kings with Webber) whether or not they will ever have the "mettle" to bring it home.

Alas...life as a Dallas sports fan. The Mavs & Rangers have never won a title, and the Cowboys haven't won a Super Bowl in 12 years. Yeah, the Stars won a Stanley Cup but I'm not a big hockey fan.

why are you so shocked? take off your rose colored glasses sweetie. Watching the games on TV, you can see the mean-spirited attitude of the fans through the screen. You don't see it cause you have that common bond with other mavs fans, you're ideals are the same.
Its disgusting to see the fans react through the TV. I think to myself, damn these people are Texans? How rude, clapping, laughing and pointing fingers when players are down or kicked off your court. Even Steve Kerr said last night towards the end of the game, dallas had an arrogance about them this year. It all caught up with everyone including the majority of the fans.

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.... So, 67 wins sounds like a great idea now doesn't it? Everyone hates you and the 2007 Playoffs proved it."
