Let me clear it up for eveyone - if you are a supporter and you choose to go to the game - the only thing you are obliged to do is to stay - "and Support" your team in whatever capacity that is, and not leave early. Also if it happens to be a Red Sox Yankees game - beat the shit out of as many Yankees fans as possible - they are worse than Man U fans or also fans of SP-- you know whom. I Digress - again.

If someone plays like shit, or shite as "you people" say, then you can Boo them all day long - it shows as a supporter you care. It would be worse if someone like Euboue played the way he did and people were indifferent. Trust me if I am at Fenway and the Red Sox are shitting the bed - especially in matters where they shouldn't you can believe me there are going to be some boo's. Just like there are cheers when they do well.

It shows you give a shit. I would hate to support a team with fake fans who only cared when the team was doing well - That isn't a support base that is a band wagon. It's not impolite to Boo - it shows you care.

I mean to say that was impolite would be like going to war and saying that, to be polite, you were going to wear bright red uniforms and go into battle marching in a straight line.

HEH

hey...well i think theres a differnce in booing a player n really hating one of ur own team

i remember kyut was booed last season coz he didnt score at all n now hes beloved and famous for his all-time-running-even-when-asleep+scoring

fans have a good right to boo but i think u shouldlnt be too hard...sometimes a lift up helps more than bad critics and players can always have a bad run of games, u shoudlnt forget that they are no machines who can do everything
nevertheless...if a player doesnt give 100% or is not comited to his club u should give him a good idea about what the u think of that

btw labradoodle...statisfied with obama? sry had to ask this

Since you asked. I am Satisfied that he sucks. This is not the place for that - but if you really want to know what I think is happening - take a look at this.
