June 15, 200421 yr Of course there will be. As long as the Clipper are around there'll always be able to say, hey, we're the best team in LA. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
June 15, 200421 yr Having lived in the LA area, I can attest to the fair-weather nature of the fans there. That's why both NFL teams left the LA area.
June 16, 200421 yr Author Almost game time! Come on, Lakers!!! "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta
June 16, 200421 yr Author Having lived in the LA area, I can attest to the fair-weather nature of the fans there. That's why both NFL teams left the LA area. Please. You see the effect of the fair-weather fan everywhere. How many baseball games have you watched and seen 90% of the seats empty? Same with basketball and football. Fans don't like to see their team lose so many except the most die hard of fans don't want to waste money on tickets. "Of course the people don't want war.

June 16, 200421 yr we need cheerleaders in soccer. oh, and ice-hockey! no cheerleaders in europe sigh It's very hard to be polite if you're a cat.
June 16, 200421 yr I live in a state with little money, yet has sold out every single football game for over 40 years running. That's a record, BTW. Nebraska has real fans. We don't have the monopoly of them, but they do exist.
June 16, 200421 yr Author I agree. I'm just saying that the fair-weather fan syndrome is not unique to LA. "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.

June 16, 200421 yr So far the game is close. The Lakers might have a chance if Kobe doesn't hog like he did last game and Karl Malone isn't playing. For anybody that lives in LA I wonder why does nobody care about investing in the Clippers or the Warriors.
June 16, 200421 yr Detroit is shooting lights-out so far. Kobe is taking more shots than Shaq, shooting a lower percentage, and LA is losing again.
June 16, 200421 yr Author Well, crap. I suppose I'd feel worse about it if there was something I could do about it. But there isn't "Of course the people don't want war.

June 16, 200421 yr It's over. Congratulations to Detroit for beating up on a cripple and a uselsss fool. Seriously, Detroit earned this victory. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
June 16, 200421 yr Why are the Detroit starters on the floor? Get your role-players some time on the floor.
June 16, 200421 yr Who is your series MVP? I think it will go to Billups or Hamilton, but I'd give it to Prince. Shaq still got his points, but Prince shut down Kobe hard-core for four games. Prince played incredible defense.
June 16, 200421 yr Author Why are the Detroit starters on the floor? Get your role-players some time on the floor. It's a conspiracy! He' running up the score! Boo hiss!

June 16, 200421 yr Gotta be the team, I'd say Billups on Offense and Big Ben on Defense. Dungggggggggggggggggg What if I wanted to kill the other bounty hunters but still have the Twi'leks chase me?
June 16, 200421 yr Author Gotta be the team, I'd say Billups on Offense and Big Ben on Defense. Dungggggggggggggggggg Dung is right, hehe. "Of course the people don't want war.

June 16, 200421 yr I figured he would. I think Prince really got overlooked in this series though. So did Darko. Darko for MVP!
