Apologies from Magic Nation.

[cole1200]

Hey guys great game last night, welcome to the playoffs. I am a STH here in O-Town and you guys had our section pretty stressed for sure.
I browse our forum often but rarely post. Also, during the playoffs I'll check out the oppositions sites just to get the other POV, but again usually don't post. However, after reading some of the trash talking troll BS put on your forum by a small, but loud group of 13 year old Magic fanboys, I feel obligated to speak up for the silent majority.
Throughout the last 20 years I can't remember a time when members of our fan base would act so cocky and rude to another. Maybe it's because we were the underdog most of the time, maybe it's just that we have sooo many bandwagon fans these days. Whatever the reason, as I read these trolls posts on here, I can't help but be disgusted by the fact that some of our 'fans' sound exactly like the Cleveland & Boston trolls that we so despise on our boards. (probably more like Cleveland in that at least the C's trolls can back their talk with a recent chip).
Anyway, I hope you don't judge our entire fan base by a few posts made by some pre-adolescent smack talking losers. (every team has a couple). As for the rest of the series, good luck (not too much tho) and good health.

(To any Magic 'fans' who take issue w/ this thread, feel free to meet me in Section 221 for further discussion. K, Thx.) GO MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"You know you've made it when" last year's EC champs have fans apologizing for other fans coming to your team's site to predict them winning.

Apology accepted, and in good fun, enjoy the loss Wednesday.

Welcome and thanks for posting. I certainly don't consider the Magic trolls posting here as the majority at all.

Predicting a win over your opponent is one thing. Disrespecting and/or underestimating that opponent is just stupid. Ask the Cavs. :cool:
GO MAGIC!!!!

(To any Magic 'fans' who take issue w/ this thread, feel free to meet me in Section 221 for further discussion. K, Thx.) GO MAGIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fabulous post! Frankly, none of that shit bothers me anymore. As an Astros baseball fan, about 10 years ago I let Cubs and Cards trolls get to me and cause me to make an ass of myself, and finally stop being a member of any fansite 'til I found good 'ol BCP, and a couple youngins hiding behind internet annonymity aren't going to ruin it for me.

Thanks for taking the time, it's definitely appreciated nonetheless! Especially love the postscript! Give 'em hell, man :paddle: And after this series, I wish you guys the best.

Good ol' post old chap.
As you can see how bad the social degradation of society is.
We have bandwagoners, immature 13 year old brats, aggro kids on video games (you get that so much in Counter Strike, it's hilarious to diss them), and people like Miley Cyrus, Paris Hilton and that Justin guy...Bieber or whatever.

It's like the new generation are full of immature brats...we can only pray that they grow up. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

Good post, Cole. We will see how the series goes. May the best team win.

lol I think that's a strong generalization. The people who listen to those musical artists are typically girls. As for bandwagon fans..well..kids will be kids. I get frustrated when I go to a Bobcats game against the Lakers or Cavs and see hundreds of Lebron and Kobe fans. Most of these people have never been to those respective cities, yet they love the teams.

Then I recalled when I was a child. I liked the Charlotte Hornets, but I LOVED the Bulls and MJ. It was a huge moment for me being able to see MJ when he came to Charlotte, and there was no doubt who I was rooting for. So if a kid wants to jump on the bandwagon for a great player, I think that's fine. They will develop a love for the game as a result.

I do agree that there is a strong level of immaturity. Trying to play a game online is difficult to do without subjecting yourself to the insults of some E-Thugs.

Cole, you are an embarrassment to the Blue and White Nation. There's nothing wrong with some good-natured smack talk, even if it involves taunting and braggadocio. Take pride in your team and don't be such a wussy. I would meet you in 221, but I don't like climbing the steps to the upper level. Feel free to meet me down in 102 if the ushers let you.

I thought 12 year olds were suppose to be in school now. Skipping is not good for you little fellow. Go to school where you can educate yourself, become successful and become a Bobcat fan. See you here in a few years.

While your offer is tempting and certainly appreciated, I would rather follow a team that will allow me to have a rooting interest beyond the first round of the Playoffs. Thank you.

PS: I'm sure you accidentally left the "d" off of "suppose" and that's not a screamingly-hilarious example of irony.

[bing!]

^ Lo! Your monkey's on fire! ... no, not the one in your pants, numbnut.

spell-check or did you get someone to write it for you?

PS: Grow up.

[WarioVsMooChicken]

I don't understand why people get so insultive about all of this.

When you get down to it, you have pretty much nothing to do with your sports team. So why do people like to mock and insult those who care for a team that's less sucsessful?

So many people seem to think it makes them better if they like a better team, I don't understand it, and it's stuff like this that makes me wish I wasn't into watching sports at all.

[Wolfpackbobcat]

at least we have a nfl team to brag about too

[Plowright]

Great Post mate, Just want to let you know how much i appreciate it )and the rest fo the guys i guess) this series looks set to be a good one!

[teej]

at least we have a nfl team to brag about too

Not to mention we actually have a pro baseball team :rolleyes:

Blueandwhiteignite, if you're so confident in your team, get the fuck off our boards and enjoy it. If not, stop having false bravado and join Cole and a few others in normal conversation.

[TheLegend]

I except the apology but still I swear to god all these Magic trolls have Mickey Mouse stuck in their ass. For the Magic fans that like to talk shit go back to where you came from and stop posting your shit here.

I am a Magic fan, and do take pride in my team, but some of the post from our fans have been embarrasing. There is no reason to come over here and say things like "we win in 3". The fact of the matter is we should win this series, but dont need to rub it in there faces. The Bobcat fanbase knows the Magic SHOULD win, but they have confidence in their team, and we saw on Sunday that the Bobcats will not go down without a fight.

Smack talking is ok, but some of it gets out of hand. By reading some of the comments our fans are making you would think the Magic have won more championships in the last decade than any other team. Stay humble and enjoy the good years we are having because in just a couple of seasons (Dwight free agency) it could be right back to mediocrity.

BTW...Im in section 109 and keep that elitist bull**** to yourself!

Or basically, one championship :biggrin:

And Dwight's going to be a FA? Fuck Chris Paul, new plan guys! Dwight plus Crash plus DJ plus Jack/Hendo = contender.
