San Antonio Against The World.
Chopper goes out of town for a couple of days and my favorite board has been overrun by a bunch of half-wit Piston fans. WTF??!!
I must say, I like their moxie. Nothing like wandering into another team's message board and starting 25 threads on how their team is going to kick our asses.
From what I've seen from their comments so far it's obvious to me that the Spurs play in the west far past most of their bedtimes. They seem to know a lot about their team, but not much about any team playing west of the mighty Mississippi. Note to Pistons fan: Next season ask your mama if you can pick up her stogies or her late-night pint from the corner store one night and find a TV to watch some real basketball being played on the late game on TNT.
Unfortunately for them, it appears that they haven't paid attention to the fact that these Spurs have gradually elevated their game through each round of these 2005 playoffs while the Pistons have beaten a Miami team that had its two stars hurt, and preceeded that 7-game nail biter with two series victories against teams that would have had a tough time even qualifying for a Western playoff slot.
I like the Pistons team, and I think the matchups will prove tougher than had we faced Miami, but I still think the Spurs prevail in 6 games. Unless this Detroit team has been dogging it to this point I don't see them beating the Spurs in a 7-game series if our team can stay relatively healthy. <-- That's not smack, that's fact.
As for the Detroit fans. . .like their team, they'll try awfully hard, but they won't have enough to stop us. Their bravado will be replaced with awe-inspired silent admiration for the posters that comprise Spurstalk. <-- Smack, for those keeping score.
In the end, we'll be back to our comfortable surroundings with only Sparky left to call all Spurs fans idiots, Aggie reminding us why Pop was lucky to coach the Spurs to three championships, and T Park telling us all randomly to go ourselves with Solid trying hard to keep us all on the straight and narrow.
Believe in the SPAM my brothers and sisters and keep Spurstalk controlled by those who have the faith.
San Antonio Against The World.
its hard to keep up with the WC when youre listening to kid rock and eminem all day
And here I thought I was coming to a board that wasn't full of y heads (with a few exceptions). I might as well be a troll because the majority of people here are thickskulled with their heads up their asses. Off I go.
see you in yankee
haha. i was just thinking, i haven't seen this influx of piston/detroit hatred since.......well since i joined the board a year ago. i could see the civility breaking down the closer we get to game 1. but to be fair, some pistons fans have come trolling here so if you dish it and you get it back. but there are a lot of good discussions too.
I understand that, but I was one of the first piston fans to post here for this series, and I believe my post was pretty civil. Nobody is looking for a hug or a "pistons could win bro", but damn, I thought spurs fans were more mature, humble, and realistic then what I've seen so far. So far it's the same lame ass jokes about the city of detroit, 'Sheed, and offense that came from miami fans. You'd think a team with a similar composition would have more respect for an equal opponent.
A lot of the Pistons fans have been posting city smack, racist comments against Mexicans, bringing up the Spurs asterisk Championship in 1999, etc.
So, there's some bad smack on both sides. But there's also a lot of good conversation.
Take the ribbing (even though some if it is senseless or inappropriate) and carry on.
Well, the Pistons fans are the worst of "new" posters since the playoffs started.
Worse then the Denver fans, worse than the SOnic fans, and diff. worse than the Suns fans.
Did you ban any of those re s?
Sorry, but that's bull . The Pistons fans have actually been the most basketball knowledgable group that's been here in the playoffs.
No, should I ban the Spurs fans who are talking too?
Let's not talk about Spurs fans and being mature, when was the last time there was a brawl at a San Antonio Spurs game, or when was the last time we had riots after winning a championship, or the last time we yelled "bull " in unison after a bad call (which we get our share of)?
[/THREAD]
No, I'm talking about the one who brought up the racist comments.
There was a fight in the SBC Center in the first round of the playoffs (it just wasn't with players, it was fans vs security).
The "bull " chants and the "refs you suck" chants are far from non-existent at the SBC Center.
That's pretty much true, a little trolling and some interesting user names but that's about it, not as bad as the other teams but I won't be shocked if more come out of the woodwork once we go up on them by a few games...
That wasn't even a scuffle, and I've seen every game for years and I can't recall those chants....
It wasn't a scuffle? A security guard got punched in the face.
I hear the Refs You Suck chants at every single game -- The Baseline Bums start them. Bull chants are more rare.
Must not go to many games. Chanting BS is tame to what you can hear at the SBC Center.
I've been to plenty, I'm not saying I won't hear a couple of people yelling , but I never hear the chants from the entire crowd...
Spurs fans have been there, done that.
Spurs fans at the SBC Center did the Bull chant quite a bit throughout the arena during the Sonics series.
I punched a security guard once, what's the big deal?
Wait, you guys are right, you win, Spurs fans are a bunch of stupid ing assholes....
The dissing has been both started and continued by both sides so let's not get 1 sided here.
No one is saying they are a bunch of assholes. Just people shouldn't act like Spurs fans are all high and mighty and would never do something like chant "Bull ", when in fact it happens at least once a series. And other not so nice chants, every game.
