End of the Rodney Dangerfield whining act? 

Post#1 » by writerman » Wed May 14, 2008 3:15 am

all year long I've been reading the Magic fans whining and moaning about how they didn't get their due respect. It got very old in a very short time.

Well, they couldn't compete with an aging Detroit team minus its starting PG.

So you should be asking yourself at this point--how much respect were they actually warranted?

They have some nice pieces, but despite winning the SE Division, they are not a top-tier team. End of story.

We don't deserve any respect.

We are a terrible team with terrible fans.

We are sorry for existing.

And once again, we apologize for ever wanting an ounce of respect, because we got so much of it in these two threads.

LOL @ Aging. Maxiell & Stucky is 90% of our bench contribution. Not to mention Prince, Rip, Billups all in their prime.

None of our players output has decreased from year to year.

Where does the aging stigma come from?

See, he even managed to piss Detroit fans off with a post aimed at Magic fans. But seriously....this might get bad.

Hahahaha.
