Volourn Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkan Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

EnderAndrew Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkan Posted June 16, 2004 Author Share Posted June 16, 2004 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.

mastaGAW Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderAndrew Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Detroit is shooting lights-out so far. Kobe is taking more shots than Shaq, shooting a lower percentage, and LA is losing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderAndrew Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
