Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

yeah yeah yeah - we should do something like this. If Donald Sterling was our owner we would have to do something like this and be billed for it as group therapy.

Sounds exciting.

And yes, we should do something like this

WOOT WOOT! Baseball's back!

Damn. That's rough.

Although i’m a Lakers fan (I know, I know, they’re the basketball equivalent of the skanks, but I attended my 1st game before Riley took over, so i’m no fair weather), I still have a soft spot for the Clips. Maybe because they’re painfully mediocre, like a certain baseball team I love once was. Or maybe it’s the fact that so many fellow Laker fans are so damn smug, like skank and sux fans. Plus my youngest son is a Clips fan for some strange reason.

Being a clippers fan

just because they are in the same situation as the Angels USED to be: second ticket in a two team city, is ridiculous to me.

I know of some, not accusing anyone on here.

Also, Go Lakers! (Fan since age 6)

What?

Did anyone say they were a fan just because the Clips are in the position that the Angels USED to be?

My love for the Clippers actually stems from being rebellious. My dad was a huge Lakers fan. I was a baseball fan/player. All other sports came second. However, after day in and day out of being forced to watch Laker games, I decided to rebel against my father and assign my allegiance to the “other” LA basketball team.

BHM, you sound like my youngest son.

My family and I, for the most part are Laker fans, going to games, watching games,buying the gear etc. And one day about 3 years ago, my boy had it. He said he was tired of so many bandwagon Laker fans, tired of people constantly talkin’ smack about the Clips, so he became a fan of the Clips. He is the only kid I regularly see sporting Clipper merchandise at his school. And he catches alot of flak for being a true fan, but his reply is the same as yours…
Our day will come. Reminds me of being a Halo fan, not so long ago.

I sympathize with your son

I currently live in Portland and recently caught a Blazers/Clippers game. Of course, I wore my Baron Davis shirt to the game to show my pride. The Clips lost by 27 points that game. Really bad stuff. On the walk home, Blazer fans were yelling all kinds of shit to me from their cars….it was ridiculous. Why make fun of a guy who roots for the team that just lost by TWENTY-SEVEN FRIGGIN POINTS.

If you wear anything Clippers-related, its like an automatic free pass to be mad fun of. Totally sucks. So I sympathize with your son. But once they are good, and it will happen, he can hold his head up high because rooting for a losing team makes those winning seasons all that much sweeter.

Hey BHM, you're talkin' to a fellow Halo fan.

I know all about being made fun of, I wore Angels gear as a kid, when we sucked, back in the 70’s and 80’s. ;)
My kid seems to take it in stride, and for what its worth, he gives as good as he gets. After school one day I overheard a conversation between him and another kid, who happened to be a Laker fan, he basically said "How are you gonna win the title when you can’t win on the road against the east? He went on to say that he would root for the Jazz, Suns, Nuggets, anybody but the Lakers. I don’t know if I should be pissed as a Laker fan, or proud that much like me, he’s no fair weather.

With as many fair-weathered sports fans as there are nowadays...

I say applaud your son.

I honestly, truly, believe that one’s loyalty to a sports team is deeply rooted in the make up of their character as a person in love and life.

Good for him.

By the way, I saw the game you're talking about on TV.

It was the same day, or day after the Camby trade. And I was pissed. The game was already over and the blazers continued to launch 3 pointers to drive up the score. Totally classless. If there’s only 1 minute left, and you’re up by double digits, no need to shoot the ball, let alone treys. And again, i’m a Laker fan.

thank you...

so many effin self-righteous northwesterners talking crap on LA and everyone from Southern California. Gets so annoying.

Okay, sorry about the brief rant.

The Angels were NEVER the Clippers

They may be similar in their position as the second ticket team, but in no way does Gene Autry compare to the despicable Donald Sterling. Disney maybe, but even they put together a winning system and got a Championship out of it. Donald Sterling is a disgrace to professional athletics and should be forced out of ownership.

I would love to root for the Clips—I really would—but until Sterling is gone, I will actively root against them. Anyone foolish enough to put their faith in any team under the money-grubbing Sterling deserves to suffer the pains of disappointment again and again. Bless their hearts.

agree in principle

although the difference between the Jackie Autry era & Sterling was kind of slim

I dunno man, the years that Jackie Autry in power were pretty disgraceful...

you cant help your owner, you know?

You root against my team

because of the ownership? That would be like rooting against the Halos because Disney was in charge…wait you didn’t…did you?

by blochead on Mar 9, 2010 11:39 AM PST up reply actions  

I dont really know why im a Clips fan...

maybe cause being a laker fan seems so trendy now… i do know im a big Shaq fan and previously would pledge my allegiance to whatever team he was on… but i kind of just wandered over to the clips during the young Lamar, Q, MIles era… cant wait to see Big Griff tearing down rims next season though.

oh... and another thing about the clips..

me and my bro would always catch the Clips games when they would play a few at the “arena formerly known as the pond.” so that was another thing

FOOTBALL!

Is the second-best sport behind baseball with all their crazy dribbling, slide tackles, and epic shots on goal.

They have a "nation". LIke Blefuscu, I guess.

At the Big A or Throwbacks

or even at the Rev’s place if he still has Salma there like he claims.

The Salma claim

was poetic license.

For some reason I feel sad.

Yeah, I am a clippers fan….
