Post by Superbone »

Time: 8:30 pm AZ (7:30 pm PT/10:30 pm ET)
Place: Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix, AZ

Man, have things changed since opening night. Two franchises moving in opposite directions. The Mavs have won 12 of their last 15 and are fighting for a playoff spot while the Suns have lost 10 in a row and have the worst record in the league.

Go Suns!!!

On Reddit they are trying to organize anti-Sarver protests for tonight's game. There will supposedly be chants during each quarter.

1st quarter: This is OUR team!
2nd quarter: Sarver sucks!
3rd quarter: Sell the team!
4th quarter: Sarver out!

I hope there are enough people that show up and know about the plan. I would like to have it be heard on the TNT broadcast. Sadly, these are the things I have to look forward to as a present day Suns fan.

Is it bad that I hope Luka scores 30 with 10 assists right in front of Sarver's stupid face?

These chants are amazing. They express exactly how I feel about the Suns and Sarver. I hope they're loud and proud! Go Suns fans! #FUSarver #SarverOut #SarverSucks #SellTheSuns

I wish them luck but lets be honest there aren't enough fans at Suns games to make a decent chant. :)

But if it's quiet in the arena (which it probably will be), even a handful of loud people could make a chant that would be picked up by the mic.

I refuse to go to a game until the product is worth paying for.

I understand some of you guys have taken it personally that the Suns suck and it's Sarver's fault, but what if he's the one getting roasted and it's unwarranted?

C'mon man. Do you even listen to the stuff he says, or the things people have said about working for the Suns, or his bullshit management practices?

Yes, I take it personally because he's actively insulting the intelligence of anyone who supports the team.

Of course I've listened to it. I didn't say I like the guy, and I've roasted him plenty of times for overstepping and overreacting. I just don't think it's productive or healthy to knee jerk blame him for everything and especially when it's not his fault.

What exactly isn't his fault? I can't honestly think of anything that can't be traced back to him. I guess player injuries or the Donaghy stuff, but that's about it.

If he didn't threaten anyone on the council, and it's a made up story, this is not so good. Ultimately, he is responsible for the disaster that has become the Phoenix Suns, but blaming him for the nachos being cold or someone making up a story about him, helps in what way?

I agree that it's not good if the story is made up, but my point is that we have a long pattern of this kind of behavior from Sarver that he's lost any benefit of doubt in my opinion. No one really cares about Nachos, but that line from Barkley was just his way of expressing his frustration with Sarver without being direct and getting himself in trouble with the league.
