RutgersJetFan Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Knicks fans wearing an opposing players name on a Knicks Jersey is a disgrace. I'm sure the team is thrilled that their fans are rooting for the oppositions player. Oh get real. This team has no business getting mad at its fans for anything, ever. We've earned a lifetime pass for any and all actions. Not acquired, earned. As far as I'm concerned I should be allowed to dress up like Reggie Miller's penis and go around simulating anal with the entire bench for what they've put me through. Congrats though, you just sympathized with James Dolan. I really don't think you know what that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 keep it coming. you are hilarious If you're going to make blanketed bigoted statements and not make them up, you're going to have people call you out.

dbatesman Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Your the smart guy around here, what don't you understand? Knicks fans wearing an opposing players name on a Knicks Jersey is a disgrace. I'm sure the team is thrilled that their fans are rooting for the oppositions player. This alone, besides my hatred for the Knicks makes me happy that LeBron broke their hearts. Apparently not smart enough. Redundancy is no more an explanation than the "U MAD?" PS, and RJF has already explained why you're wrong. I'm still waiting to hear why you're right.

Who plays hockey? What is the average cost to play hockey. Start there and think about that. That's what makes fans, people who have exposure to the game. Then think about the average cost to play basketball. Chances are more people who have played hockey have also played basketball but it's not true the other way around. And then no matter what you want to say, TV networks dictate who broadcasts what and how much they're willing to shell out for the rights to broadcast. Why? Because the revenue they make off the ads. The NHL is on a fringe network meanwhile the NBA is carried on ESPN and other major networks. Facts are facts indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This consumer segment's distinctive characteristics make them an important group to keep in mind when communicating your message to sports fans I don't understand how the even come up with this. Sounds like a bunch of bull, plus it's from '08. And who the **** watches hockey? I guess I'm part of the 'lower class'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting to hear why you're right. Well you guys believe you have "earned" the right to trash your own team, understood. Dolan has made a joke of your franchise so i can understand your frustration from being known as the "Mecca" of basketball to praying you can lure away another teams player to become relevant again. It just makes it sweet that Miami fans weren't wearing LBJ jersey's and begging and pleading and he came here. So i will assume i will see NEW YORK KNICK Carmello Anthony jersey's in the stands a MSG next year....enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I'm a Hispanic kid who grew up in a white neighborhood and played ice hockey and basketball and follow both sports. For all you're saying about how other sports fans buy HIGH ticket items, the NHL, which with your incredible research I can surmise have higher incomes, is a dying sport. Why? Oh because they can't attract those "poor folk" to watch their game. TV deals dictate who is king. Not marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equating Knicks and Heat fans in this situation is such a transparently brainless example of false equivalency that I'm almost inclined to think it's intended ironically.

You're an ass because you have: -Said the NBA is for poor people in cities -Continued to tout the buying power/money of other viewers -Make an exit statement of how "poor people" mow your lawn and wash your clothing.
