<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>LOS ANGELES -- Although basketball fans may not recognize the name Darrell Bailey, they certainly know his super fan courtside presence. But unfortunately for Clippers fans, he may not be courtside much longer, KNBC's Mekahlo Medina reported. Video Bailey, who is known as "Clipper Darrell," is a fixture at Clippers games -- at least for now. After a chance meeting with Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban earlier this month, Bailey said he may be leaving Los Angeles to work as a professional super fan on the Mavs payroll. "I mean, it's very hard, the hardest decision I've ever had to make. I bleed red, white and blue. I love red, white and blue, but when a billionaire walks up to you and offers you a job, you have to think about," Bailey said. Bailey told Medina in a KNBC interview Thursday that the whole thing started after he bumped into Cuban at the Staples Center. "He was down there in the tunnel, and he was walking by, and I said, 'Hey, how you doing, Mr. Cuban?' He looked at me and he said, 'I'm your biggest fan. I love you. I've been in a lot of arenas, and I've never seen anybody do what you do.' He said, 'Have you ever been to Dallas?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'If you're ever in Dallas, you got a job with me,'" Bailey said. Bailey, a seven-year season ticket holder, flew to Dallas on Sunday to meet with the head of marketing, Mavericks vice president Paul Monroe. Bailey would not say if there were fiscal discussions about the position. "The vice president of marketing asked me, 'Darrell, are you willing to relocate?' And I said, 'If the price is right,'" Bailey said. Bailey said he was not given a deadline. Instead, the Mavs told him just to go home and think about the position, and they would meet again in the next few days. The position would include Bailey fan antics as well as working with the Mavs staff to build the team's fan base. "I can let you in on the position. What I do for the Clippers is I get the crowd riled up. He wants me to implement that into his game operations, but (also), he's asking me questions about how we can please the fans," Bailey said. Bailey, who runs a car detailing business, said he has yet to make a decision. "I love each and every one of my Clippers, but a job is a job. Just like when (players) get traded, they got to do what they got to do," Bailey said.</div> Source: NBC News Hahahah that is too damn funny. Your Super Fan could be next!
See this I like: Are there any Nets fans who could be put on the Knicks payroll to root for them? This is realistic because A) the Knicks have wasted money on far less talent, and with Dolan and Isiah running the show, this isn't a far fetched maneuver to combat the oncoming PR war that the NY Nets will start.
