Have got to stop man, MVP, MVP...wtf man...don't get me wrong Bosh is my favorite raptor and he's an amazing player, hes helping the organization alot.. but he is not an MVP, in a few years yes, but not yet.These chants are making our city look stupid, and you could tell people are already laughing at us (VC) ..yeah everyone hates him but that doesn't matter
I say we don't chant it enough. Who the hell cares about what everybody else thinks. Who's laughing? Carter was because he was getting his ass booed.
Why stop?????????Bosh is playing MVP-material beasting it and leaving his all on the courtI know he won't win it but Toronto hasn't had a player like this in a minute..enjoy it

They dont necessarily mean they're the MVP.</div>Exactly...we know (at least I do) he's definitely not getting it but he's just a great guy on and off the court...have to love him. Despite that I know there's no chance he'll get it I'd still chant anyway.
I wouldn't want the fans to stop. It makes the Raptors play better with a lot more energy and Bosh enjoys it even when he knows he's not MVP, but you can tell with the smile on his face.
Is Bosh the MVP of the NBA? No. Is he probably the Most valauble Raptor all time? Yes. He sure will have a chance to showcase that if his raptors can go into the playoffs and make some noise.Also the Bosh11 if you were at the ACC and you heard these chants, would you sit in your seat quietly? I dont think so.

Fans are just happy for what he is doing this season helping us come out of the playoff slump. And this is one of the most exciting seasons we have experienced in quite a while.
I agree stop the chants it makes the city look bad and fans look stupid.He's not MVP calibur and he's not playing like an MVP.. fans are just copying being wannabes of other towns with real stars.Nothin against Bosh he's just not there yet and it makes Toronto look bad I know exactly what the poster is talkin about.
I said why, it makes the team and fans look stupid. Chant C B 4 .. BOSH BOSH BOSH .. whatever, but MVP is takin it too far because he doesn't deserve that.Like I said people are just copying fans in LA or Miami or wherever REAL MVP candidates are playing.. we dont wanna be wannabes.
People in philly used to chant MVP for iverson every year.. even when he had no chance of winning. It doesn't make your fans or organization look like idiots at all. Its called motivation.
Iverson was at least winning scoring titles and dominating the floor... there's a difference.You can't compare Bosh to AI, not at all. He's not there yet. I know it's motivation but use something else besides M V P, save that for when hes really an mvp.
I think the fan base can chant smarter/ more realistic things than mvp. or maybe these fans dont know about the superstars who are leading their teams to 18 game win streaks named steve and dirk, and that guy named kobe surrounded by a crew of children . this mvp chant just shows more how much of a cow-herd mentality the raptor fans are. ooh I hear mvp im going to start chanting without thinking about it . its like the years before where raptors fan booed their own rookie. *sheep noise* I hear booing, im going to boo too. I hear this guy sucks, he must suck! I cant make an opinion of my own. thats basically half the raptor fans at the acc. hey that guy made a shot hes awesome! now he missed he sucks! everyone is saying this I should too! the sheep mentality of raptor fans is hilarious. any rational ,realistic basketball mind would know that there are far more deserving candidates , and bloating someones ego on false grounds is not going to fire them up . its going to set them up for a very hard fall. but bosh actually has a brain and doesn't fall succumb to the sheep flock . they'll boo him just as quickly as they cheer for him, he knows it. they've done it to him.

But they sure did it to Hoffa after his rookie season.
