Good job on the site, but that comments section should be removed or at least moderated.

Revolutions start out with a handful of determined individuals and turn into movements......20 people one game.....50 people the next....and so forth

Some of you guys are trolling and /or haven't read too much into world history. Or you are Bargs/BC fans.

The Arab Spring started with a few individuals wanting change and then turned into a mass movement with all classes, religions, age groups joining in. Its a different story the current condition of Egypt, but you know what I am saying.

By the way, I hope the posters commenting in this thread are not keyboard warriors; its one thing to support online and another thing to be a foot soldier at the ACC wearing "Fire BC" shirts.

We live in different times. Most people don't take revolutions seriously, and in my honest opinion I think revolutions are illusions. Same crap happened in Greece, right now people think they can overthrow the government, but it's an illusion.

We live in modern society where technology is worth more than a human being, which means people will not leave their technology in order to help out another individual. Just look at everyday's incidents. If someone is dying or drowning, the first thing people do is to make sure they get in it on camera. I wouldn't want to have someone like that in a group.

Anyway we're talking about two different things. Revolution vs sports.

In all seriousness, the more i see Lillard play, the more i want Colangelo to be fired. He could have easily told Casey last year to stop playing his starters major minutes the last month of the season. Bargnani, Calderon, DD played major minutes in close victories in the 4th quarter the last month of the season- Denver, Charlotte, Philly, Boston, Atlanta, etc., while i was screaming for losses. This team went 6-8 the last month of the season, and three teams jumped up from behind. It was widely publicized that Golden State, Portland and
Cleveland management told their coaches to basically tank the rest of the year. Colangelo should have had the balls to tell Casey to start

Solomon Alabi the last month of the season and play guys like Magloire major minutes alongside Alabi. I got into back and forth exchanges with idiots on this forum, who wanted victories for "winning culture". Where are you idiots now? How would Lillard look right now instead of Ross. That is why this team should have tanked properly. Portland has the last laugh. Two more losses and we would have had Lillard. For this sin, someone needs to pay a price, and Colangelo did not have the balls to tell his coach to tank properly. F*** you Colangelo, F*** you Casey. It makes me sick to my stomach to see Lillard play right now. Portland snuck up from behind to snap him up. Toronto fell from 4th to 8th in the draft in three weeks. It can not even tank properly. Sorry for my rant. Saw Lillard highlights an hour ago. We had to trade our pick next year to get Lowry, since if we had drafted Lillard, we would have not traded for Lowry. F*** my life as a Raps fan.


Its even worse, cause with lillard we would not have traded for lowry thus would have our pick and there would of been no need to pursue nash (still do not understand why) thus no landy stupid contract.

Team this year would be

Lillard/Jose
DD/AA
SF ? issue still kleiza
Bargs/ED
JV/AJ

Certainly enough to get a bottom 5 pick which we would hold.

That is how you tank properly. YOu add a high 2013 pick and probaly a 10 -15th pick in 2014. In the meantime you trade Bargs/Amir and keep your cap space.

You would have a very nice team with tonnes of cap space. Why they deviated by winning those meaningless games and accelerating the rebuild with 2 rookies and still devleping DD and ED ?????

Ok boys, here goes.

If you guys are serious about this, I can print like 300 flyers before the Wednesday home game.
Reply here or hit me up on Twitter to confirm that you can make it pregame (say 5:30).
All we need is like 5 6 people to start, and the rest will take care of itself.

Are you in or are you a keyboard soldier?

5-6 people to start? no my friend. We need to organize it and get way more people.

This is how society works

When 15,000 people see 5-6 people, they will think we're crazy.
If 15,000 see 50+ people, then they will follow the trend. It's how it works.

A good idea would be to recuit people AT the game, and make a video and put it on youtube. Signs always work too! I can't make the game, but I'll try and spread the message. #FIREBC. #ENDTHEPLUTOCRACY.

Couple of useless wins &this topic goes quiet. If anything theres more reason to be upset as our pick is slipping away.

Our fans are so accepting of crap

I'm not even mad at Colangelo anymore, he's been exposed for what he is. This is all on MLSE now.

I'm pretty sure everyone besides the Toronto Basketball media knows that to build a championship caliber team, we need to burn this team to the ground.

My biggest concern is that MLSE actually doesn't care if we are ever championship caliber. They are more content with being competitive for a playoff spot (aka mediocre), and saving face, rather than doing what's really necessary.

A lot has to do with the majority of fans being idiots with short term urges they cannot control. I blame TV for the shortening of our attention spans, and the internet for providing us with adult sites for instant gratification. Now we are trained to expect the same type of experience from our basketball team. Unfortunately this has very little chance of leading to a championship caliber team.

Accepting mediocrity has been the way it's been for seven years now with this fanbase. I guess it was too much to expect it to change now.

What? Who wants to get BC fired any less after those wins? Nobody has said anything of the sort.

Who is "accepting" this right now?

How dare you criticize porn!? Take that back! Lol, JK, your post is right on. Except you forgot one important thing: the fans are not only impatient, they're delusional. For instance, some lunatic just made a playoffs thread after our two-game win streak. smh
