Change? Well... Maybe some new chants? Or other ideas? 

Post#1 » by rrosario35 » Thu Jan 3, 2008 5:31 pm

In the safest way possible Cablevision needs to have it's image tarnished a bit more than it already is.
How can we do this besides chanting "Fire Isiah" or by Booing?

Chants:
"Dolan Sucks" "Dolan Sucks" "Dolan Sucks"
"Pat-rick Ew-ing" "Pat-rick Ew-ing" "Pat-rick Ew-ing" ( A knock on Curry)
"Der-ek Har-per" "Der-ek Har-per" "Der-ek Har-per" (A Knock on Steph & other guards)
"Mar-cus Cam-by" "Mar-cus Cam-by" "Mar-cus Cam-by" (A Knock on everyone)
"We want refunds!" "We want refunds!" "We want refunds!" :nod: (A chant that I dont think could be ignored)

Actions:
throw those free t-shirts back at the city dancers... Seriously if we are all angry about whats going on; why do we go crazy and reach our hands out for free shirts. :clap: (Throw it to me!!)

It is my honest to god belief that since the Boos are not effective and neither are the "Fire Isiah" chants. Sports Center is tired of the same old stuff. But In my opinion if Fans start demanding refunds when the Knicks are on it would get some media attention that may have Dolan rethinking his loyalty to Isiah.

Also in Europe I heard they don't "boo" teams they dislike but they turn their backs on them and stay completely silent. Like you could almost hear a pin drop.
Imagine if during the entire team intro if 17,000+ plans turned their backs and didnt say anything. How cool would that be?

Prayer:
:pray: I'm sure there must be someone with power that can help us. :pray:

But then again to coordinate an entire arena to do this would be extremley difficult. I think the Daily News had the best shot.

A Knicks marketing rep came to my office tried to sell us ticket plans buy 1 get 1 free. You buy the package for like $30 and get 6 buy 1 get 1 free coupons. I thought long & hard about it then I declined, figured if I add to the 17,000+ fans that go to every game why would Dolan even care to fix this team.
I know plenty of the tickets are already sold but more & more fans keep buying.
I did ask him what he thought about Isiah and he said "no one likes him" not sure if that's true but hey he's the only garden employee I know.

The sad thing is somewhere deep down inside we believe in the talent and we believe in this team, and that's why we keep watching and rooting. Even when they are down by 20 and make a run we see light at the end of the tunnel we just cant stop hoping/rooting. I could easily stop rooting for the Mets or Yankees but not for the Knicks. NY wants this team to do well more than we need it to.

Remember 94? The city wasnt doing all that well and the city NEEDED some spark the Knicks came through and gave everyone something to read about besides crime & prostitution.



SO ARE YOU WITH ME!!!!!!

Just poo in your hands and throw it on the court. Nothing says "You Stink!" like a pieces of hot feces.

I think chanting "Derek Harper" or "Marcus Camby" would just confuse the hell out of everyone.

See the problem with that is your ticket rep will probably end up selling your ticket to someone else without it being a big deal. This thing needs to be done in unison with all other fans

Correct to all of the above :D

I am kidding, of course. The refund chant i think is the best one to be honest.

Yep. Do it when the Garden expects you to chant 'dee-fense!'

Mass walkout would be awesome, though is definitely impractical because it would mean that a lot of people would waste their money if they participated in the walkout.
