    it's extremely smart of the Seattle franchise. They have an extremely loud and rabid fan base. And they build on that. Trying to knock them for it just seems comical.

    That's not what Paul Allen, Pete Carroll or Richard Sherman said hoisting the trophy. It's not what Berman just brought up on NFL Primetime. It's saying that the fans are a defined and appreciated part of the team, and affect the game on the field in tangible ways (false starts, delays of game). It's given by the team to the fans--who do you think picks the people who raise the flags, encourages the jersey sales, feed into things like "world record noise levels", etc?

    I'm not saying it's not gimmicky, but it's not solely the Hawks fans. This isn't an organic, bottom-up "save our sonics" thing, it's given by, encouraged by and acknowledged by the team. :dunno:

    Yup. The same rabid fanbase that just threw food on a guy who destroyed his knee on the football field.

    I'd like to think Blazer fans would never do something like that, and since they don't tailgate outside the arena drinking for hours, i doubt that would happen.

    A few people. Come on Nate. As an Oregon fan, do I include you into the group harassing the Love family? Or in that instance is it just a few random people, not indicative of the fan base as a whole? Did 70,000 people pelt the guy with food? Have you seen video of the instance? Or did you find the one tweet? I've seen some Blazer fans act like complete assholes to visiting fans at our arena. I don't think it represnets me or you. But keep reaching.

    Come on man.... do you really think heckling is the same as throwing food on a severely injured player? Now THAT'S reaching.

    I think they work the fans up into a furor and then shit like this happens.

    back to the football--watching the ESPN highlights, the Chancellor pick was actually diagrammed by Jaworski in Countdown this morning.

    one fan throws.....who knows what, let's say skittles, and one fan calls someone's grandmother a whore. Yeah. I think those are actually pretty comparable and terribly shitty. Is the thrown hotdog or whatever going to hurt him? No.

    If the game was in Florida the 49'rs could have shot those fans.

    You can't block mods and mods can't block you. We're stuck with each other.
