    QUOTE=Mac66]As an avid spurs lover, I was pretty disgusted by the bad manners shown by Spurs fans...no class whatsoever( Quote)



    .... you say that and demand we mind our manners and show no hostility.

    Get a life! You can't have it both ways.





    Yeah, the Pistons are fantastic losers!
    I think bdubya was being sarcastic... I thought it was funny. Props to the Pistons fan for helping us make fun of the hypocrite.

    As an avid spurs lover, I was pretty disgusted by the bad manners shown by Spurs fans during the introductions of the Pistons line-up. Booing the visiting team during introductions is pathetic and conduct unbecoming a spurs fan. It's what LOSERS with no class whatsoever do! And DON'T say that's what Pistons fans do, We're NOT Pistons fans. Show some class people. I live on the east coast, and I was especially ashamed about this after bragging to people here about how friendly and respectful San Antonio fans are. Oh, and by the way, I also read that you all booed Malik Rose, OUR OWN PLAYER, for making a bad shot in January!!!! PATHETIC.

    Other embarassing things.... the totally ridiculous pre-game show/circus, the tacky, tacky, TACKY, trophy replica the Spurs stood in front of during intros (uggh..that was soooo gaudy. someone please fire the SBC genius who came up with that), and the funeral march music used to 'welcome' the Pistons. I always thought we had the best team and fans in the NBA. Well, at least we still have the best team.
    Did you see the part where Carlos Arroyo got injured and Spurs fans cheered when he got up and was taken over to his bench? is that Classless too? I didn't think so. I think Spurs fans are one of the classiest in the league...we didn't clap when arroyo went down and didn't boo when he got up. That's the diffference between us and others. And the funeral music is ALWAYS played during Spurs games.

    The topic starter does have a point. It would be nice to show the rest of the NBA world watching on National Tv , that San Antonio does not hate any NBA team .

    And It would be refreshing one day to go to a game,and everyone sit back and enjoy the game ,without making it a Jerry Springer show. Unfortunately we live in a very strange and sick world.

    And thanks to Al Gore we can all share our views from the comfort of our homes, no matter who disagrees with us.


    Rack the Topic starter .

    he at least got you to respond and in the process may have got a Goat or two.


    This person could very well be the next
    of spurs Talk.

    Not booing the visiting team left San Antonio de Bexar about the same time THE PINK and Mac66 did.

    Suggestion: Keep your Yankee ass on the East coast and be the kind of fan you want to be. 1,000 fans booing Detroit players we don't care about does make the whole San Antonio fan base classless. Some people about anything...I bet if you won the lottery, you would that the payout was in $1.00 increments.

    I think in the 80's/90's it was much worse. What about the behavior of the Baseline Bums back then, hurling avocados at Larry Brown?
    If anyone wants to hurl avocados at me...wait...OK...I NOW AM HOLDING A BUSHEL BASKET...please go right ahead.

    Avocados are expensive, but delicious.

    No need to ban basketball, but I don't think they should keep score. It's bad for the morale of the losing team.

    I simply could NOT agree more; the utter lack of taste and sophistication on display simply HURTS MY EYES. The Trophy replica could at LEAST have a reasonably reflective finish on it - is craftsmanship dead in the league, or are we having trouble finding decent help these days? (lord knows I am, but don't get me started....). As for the signs your fans are holding up? Two words, dearies: GRAPHIC DESIGN - study it for a few years and get back to me. And while we're on the subject, we simply MUST have a chat about those road uniforms. Silver and black? PuhLEEEZE, shoot me before the 80s come back full force and we're all wearing skinny leather ties again. We're at WAR, people; something in understated earth tones would really be more apropros, wouldn't you say? And as for the numbers you're putting on the scoreboard? I'll be blunt: it's a tragic display of nouveau riche, arriviste, gaudy, over-the-top excess. At least ONE team understands the beauty of understatement, and has the grace to keep the numbers toned down.....

    Mac66...are you fugging kidding me? Don't boo the opposing team? And you call yourself a former season ticket holder!!!

    I'm beginning to question whether or not you are a Spurs fana. By the way that trophy was by BOTH teams. You got a problem with it, talk to David Stern and the marketing gurus.

    You cannot ask anyone who is cheering for their team to have 'golf like' manners; it just ain't happening in this series.

    Good thoughts.

    Next time I go to a Spurs game, I'm going to cheer on both teams. That way no one gets their feelings hurt. Heck, maybe we can get Stan Kelly to use the same enthusiasm when announcing baskets made by the road team. Better yet, we should pe ion to get the SBC Center's name changed to the Neutral Location.

    Wait, why not just let the opposing team always win? That way they feel good about themselves and every team will want to come to San Antonio. Great, great plan Mac66. You are a genius.
    LJ you are totally off base here. Don't you realize that your proposed line of action will evidently lead to hurt the feelings of one of the teams?

    The solution is so obvious and logical that I'm surprised nobody in the US has thought of it: Just stop keeping score! Let them play for fun and let's give both team at the end the exact same rings.




    Edit: Kori beat me to it! That'll teach me not to read the whole thing before replying.

    Not knowing about the Spurs fans prior to this Finals, I have come to find out that this seems to be the common theme there. Loud, Obnoxious, six shooters, chap wearing, cactus slinging, barn burning, hay whipping snake biters..

    Mac66 has a point. While we're at it, how rude is it of Spurs fans to start cheering when something bad happens to the other team, like a turnover, a missed shot, or a basket scored against them? Schadenfreude is not very becoming. If we were decent and classy people, we would show sympathy for their plight and encourage them to do better.

    In addition, why must fans make so much noise when the visiting team is trying to work? I would find it very rude if all my co-workers were screaming at the top of their lungs while I was trying to get something done.

    All this is very unseemly. A fan with manners would give a light, polite clap to the achievements of both teams, with the occasional "Cheerio!" or "Good show, old chap!" mixed in.

    I think you meant to say "curling lover" if you're actually talking about Canadians, but I applaud your effort to find something else to chastise about Detroit fans other than throwing things and bomb threats. Imagination is key.
    I believe HULK may be posting tongue-in-cheek, though.

    Bdubya : ROTFLMAO. Bravo.
