That's cool and I totally respect that.

I on the other hand, as a fan, boo the other team simply because they are the other team. Except for the dudes that scare me, like Dirk. I tip toe quietly around him.

After the last time we faced the Cavs I won't even look at LeBron.

Haha Dirk? Really?

that really would be playing with the sprit of the game. If Tj did that he would have my respect as a person not a basketball player. I see that some raptors have a difficulty finding the difference between the two.

Yeah OK buddy. This is sports, not the ballet. His foul caused our starting pg to miss several weeks to date. We all know it wasn't intentional, but he should definately get booed. What do you think is going to happen? He's not going to go run and hide, if anything, I hope it throws his game off, cuz the guy is a baller.

Man, like Smiley says, some of you guys are real pansies.

Yeah, I saw Dallas for the first time this year. And I was the loudest guy in my section in the first half, but in the second when got up by 20, I was terrified. I just kept seeing in my minds eye dagger 3 pointers right into my heart.

People that can't separate life from professional sports, need to get a real grip on reality. And I'm referring to people like you.

I feel embarrassed and sorry for you.

Ah and then he proceeded to hit a whole bunch in Andrea's face. I see your point.

Some Raptor fans have come to our board and have said much worse things, anyway I'm done wasting my time.


see ya.

i boo every opposing player, unless it's MJ...

Booing at the game is a part of sporting life. It happens all the time, not just basketball, so don't make it seem like it's so out of line. This being a regular season game, the intensity would not be cranked up but he deserves a little reminder to play with his head.

It would be classes to have one of our bigger players, (humphries, joey) return the favour with a flagrant 2, then we'd just be playing enforcer hockey. Let the fans have their fun as long as it's not personal or physical attacks to the kid.

Who?

wats wrong with Booing Al Horford or anyother opposing player? Looks like the league has gotten so soft that boo an opposing player thats playing on ur homecourt is a sin.

Or it may backfire and more people will call this team "soft"

Our own fans are starting to boo Bargnani for goodness sake, so I have no problem with our fans booing Horford. Is it a nice thing to do to a young rookie who made a reckless mistake? Not really... but that's the advantage of having our team play at home. The point is to create the most hostile environment as possible for the visiting team.

We're always criticizing our players for not being tough and standing up for their teammates, and yet, we want our fans to be nice and polite to the oppsoing team? Although this kind of behaviour from fans can be somewhat considered as abhorrent, this is why it's so intimidating for opposing teams to step into stadiums like Fenway or MSG - in the past anyway. Their fans are relentless.

TJ's already said that he knows it was accidental as he made a last second move away with the ball & has forgiven him

Sorry I just don't get it TJ is big enough to forgive but we fan's aren't

Respect of the player & respect of the game s/b the same

KRANG IS OUTRAGED !!!!!!

YOU PU**IES BETTER BOO THAT HORFORD FOOL !!!!!!

But seriously I can't believe what I'm reading right now. Anyone going to that game better boo the sh*t out of that guy. He hit TJ right in the head. Nowhere near the ball. Yes everyone is saying all that BS for the cameras how they didn't think it was intentional and how he's so sorry, but come on people. Wake Up. I hope Rasho lays this guy OUT !!!!

PS: You better BOO

PPS: Horford = BOOOOOOO

If I was there, I'd boo. Attempted manslaughter deserves at least some harmless booing.

It's funny that some posters complain that the Raps aren't macho enough to get in Horford's face. And now that the fans wanna do something like that they complain about it.
