    i remeber going to an eagles/falcons game on the day of game 4 of the '08 world series. it was a sea of green birds jerseys and red phils shirts/hats. a thing of beauty. i wore my cunningham throwback as usual but also sported my phils hat. one time thing. perfectly acceptable. that was a glorious day.

    ah, the fall of 2008. good times.


    i've changed my mind....you are a fraud. :P

    Unless you are in Miami. Then you just sit in the arena and text on your phone and act like you would rather be at the gym.

    white chair covers should only be used at weddings not sporting events. :x

    the entire miami heat organization is fraudulent.

    teams are getting a little carried away with white outs, see red, blue man chu

    i think it was hte dallas/okc city where the dallas crowd was all blue, just like the OKC uniform. looked goofy.

    I was looking for this thread...

    I was at a bar last night in LA and all these Laker fans were cheering, rooting, high-fiving, clapping, etc for the Dallas Mavericks?!? :-? Now, is there not a rule against rooting for the team that fucking smashed you in the Western Conference Semi Finals? I figured these Laker fans would have not given a shit, but apparently they are all Lebron haters. Smells like FRAUD to me. I think the thing that really bugged me was how vocal they were about the Mavericks winning.

    A lot of the Laker fans around here are short sighted. This whole off season is about the re-tooling of the Lakers to be able to compete with the Heat. They don't care about anybody in the West. For some reason, the Heat are the new rivals now and that's all that matters. Gotta be able to beat them to win the championship. That's how a lot of the articles/sports talk segments are setup as well. As if they have the West wrapped up for next year already.

    they could also beat pulling for the underdog, like the rest of the country. i don't think this is too fraudulent in my opinion...

    i don't see it as fraudulent....once your team is gone, root for whomever, so long as it's not your biggest rival...ie Chicago should never root for Detroit.

    unless detroit is playing heat. :P

    right. like i'd never root for the cowboys or something in the nfl.

    that's why i can't understand eagles fans rooting for the giants against the pats a few years ago.

    the entire miami heat organization is fraudulent.

    did you see the game where someone went into the crowd next to the hoop in miami- maybe deshawn stevenson? - and there was some clown miami fan pretending to punch the player?

    that's not my point... my point is the player took out this woman who was in a white dress that could be worn at a wedding... wtf? is this sports or a club?

    checked it on dvr and she flashed her beav just a little... so it wasn't all bad ;)

    i assume it was because the pats took out the eagles previously in the superbowl while ALLEGEDLY cheating? and were on pace for perfection

    makes some sense... although i guess i'd never root for the yankees in any situation



    i was worried this year would end up lakers v heat... as a celtics fan i'd have to just hope something tragic happened ;)

    i look at the heat a lot differently than i do the pats.

    would you have rooted for the pack or vikings against them?

    Nah, dude, I have to intervene. I hate NY teams as much as the next, but I had to outweigh one against the other during that Super Bowl. First, obviously, a tidal wave of AIDS over that entire stadium would have been best. And the worst thing happening was Boston winning that fucking SB, worst than the Giants winning. That SB win, if NE got it, would have been absolutely insufferable.

    yeah we've discussed this before i think.

    i just don't have the hate towards boston a lot of people have. and i like the way that organization is run from the top down. they're not our rivals in anyway. they're fans are annoying, sure...but something about the giants winning yet another one...and being the first team in our division during the reid regime to win one after we were so close for so many years made it impossible for me to pull for them.

    Yes, we have been over it, and because of that era of time there were "die-hard" Boston fans in fucking Wyoming. And this is fucked up - a grinned a little bit when Brady's knee got torn apart. I know, I know, messed up.

    even thinking about participating in a wave at a sporting event is fraudulent...and idiotic.

    I haven't done it in 18 years, but what if you have a child that goes to the game solely to participate in the wave? Is there an age exemption for this? Like under 12, and over 75 (just to prove you can sill move).
