    Why would I be pissed off? I'm in Dallas and I'm going to my second Finals game tomorrow after watching some WC, life is good. I see you like to talk all the time, I just saw some of your other puerile posts on some other threads, I should really take you a lot less seriously from now on. Name calling is such a witty way to piss off trolls.

    Wow, going to a Finals game for your favorite team? It's only been 7 years since I did for mine. The 1st time, mind you.

    And? There's always a first time, even for Spurs fans who used to root for the Rockets before their team suddenly got good in '99. What a ridiculous statement, "We were there first so we're better!" Yeah, well your franchise has been around a lot longer, starting out as a Dallas team! First time I went to a Finals game was back in '95, Rockets friend of mine invited me and I liked and still like the Rockets. Took the Spurs 32 years, will take the Mavericks 26 years.

    eh, Spurs fans never cheered for the Rockets. Before I forget, yeah, the Spurs "suddenly got good in '99." That's it.

    That's bull . There are loads of Spurs fan in Austin and they all cheered for the Rockets in the early 90s. Anyway, just remember, 32 years for the Spurs, 26 years for the Mavericks.

    Now you cheer for the Mavs. Go figure.

    Anyway, just remember, 32 years for the Spurs, 19 years the Mavericks.
    Um, the Mavs have been around since '80. Seriously, are you trying to be stupid?

    I've been cheering for the Mavs since '96, I didn't just jump on the Mavs bandwagon in the 2000s.

    Um, the Mavs have been around since '80. Seriously, are you trying to be stupid?
    That's not a quote idiot. Regardless, we will get there sooner than your franchise. It's funny to think that the Spurs were once a Dallas team, I'm ashamed of that little fact. Anyway, later hater, I've got to go talk to fans who are still in the playoffs now.

    You edited after I pointed out your ignorance.

    'Spurs were once a Dallas team'? For someone who wants to bring up history you better review yours.

    Yeah, you need to talk to fans who are "still in the playoffs" so you've been hanging out in here every day. What the is your deal, ? This isn't therapy. Posting in here won't make you lose weight or make your job any less tier. Seriously. You post in here like it's a religion. Beyond that, you can't even talk basketball. All I see is 'I hate the Spurs because they won 3 les before the Mavs.'

    NBA finals give ABC ratings bounce Thursday
    Fri Jun 9, 2006 7:23pm ET163

    By Cynthia Littleton

    LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - The start of the NBA finals on Thursday had a bit more bounce for ABC than the opening salvo of last year's championship series.

    Game 1 between the Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat, which ended in a 90-80 Mavericks victory, averaged 9.3 household rating/15 share in Nielsen Media Research's top 56 "metered" markets. That was a 6% gain over the first game of last year's San Antonio Spurs-Detroit Pistons series and probably enough to give ABC the nightly bragging rights. (Reliable national estimates for the live game coverage were not immediately available.)

    Elsewhere in primetime, NBC had some traction with the 10 p.m. premiere of the lottery-winner drama "Windfall," which drew 9 million viewers and 3.3 rating/9 share in adults 18-49, according to preliminary estimates from Nielsen Media Research. "Windfall" moved the needle from its 9:30 p.m. lead-in, a repeat of "My Name is Earl" (6.2 million, 2.6/7).

    Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance" (10 million, 4.0/11) continued to perform well in the 18-49 measure, but was still topped in viewers by CBS' "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" repeat (12.4 million, 3.3/9).

    CBS' 8 p.m. summer series "Game Show Marathon" (6.8 million, 1.9/6) remained sluggish in the 8 p.m. hour.

    And I like this from the mercury news:

    "The national rating for the Mavs-Heat was a 7.8. That's slightly better than last year's 7.2 for the Spurs-Pistons opener, but well behind the Lakers-Pistons two seasons back at 9.8. You think ABC was happy to see the Mavericks eliminate the Spurs? The Spurs in 2003 and 2005 played in the two lowest-rated NBA Finals since the games were moved to prime time. . . . At his news conference on Friday, NBA commissioner David Stern called local television coverage of the Finals, "quite remarkable." Obviously, he has never attended Bill Parcells' Monday news conferences during Cowboys season."

    I am a fan of good basketball and damnit that was good entertaining ball
    It's a good thing you're so horribly bitter that your team is no longer playing.

    Dont you people get scared about this? I mean if Stern doesnt like the ratings, does that mean he could officially ban defensive teams from the league to make sure every team average 150 ppg and 300 dunks per game?

    Um RubADub, I was aware of the fact that they were the Dallas Chapparals. I was mocking someone who thought the Mavs had only been in existence for 19 years. Try again, kiddo.

    It would have been very difficult for the Spurs to win the NBA championship between 1968 and 1976, given that they were in the ABA.

    True. Funny how SA is disparaged for being able to support the Chaps when Dallas could not. Also slightly humorous that SA had a NBA team four seasons before DFW. Oh well.

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't agree with you more, Whottt is up!!!

    Btw, I hope the ratings sink down the f-ing toilet for the entire Finals. I ain't watching, but I'm in Brazil watching the World Cup. Basketball doesn't even exist to me right now with the Cup, Team USA being #4 in the world and the Spurs being out.

    Please, fellow Spurs fans, don't watch the Finals. ha ha ha ha
