We had read some comment that most Lakers fans have no class and are sore losers.
We have class and I can Promise you we are not sore losers either. Win or Loss, we are a Lakers, Dodgers, Sparks, and Rams fans...
Our family's supports and loyalty to all these teams continues even if they are continues to perform poorly year after year.
Last year, The Lakers give their fans an entertainment value that we derives from spectating and motivates us to remain a loyal fan. Entertainment value of team of any sports are also valuable to communities in general.
How are you supportive of your favorite team what sports that maybe all year long?
Do you think Dodgers pitcher Hiroki Kuroda, can help the Los Angeles Dodgers win division series and be a champ again?
About Kuroda, yes, he should finish off the Cubs tonight; the Cuba have been broken, and they won't recover.
As for supporting my team, yes, I'm always rooting for my home teams to win, but if they deserve a kick in the pants, I'm not blind to doing that. It all depends on how the team is run, and if they're run poorly (i.e. the Lions), I can't put all my heart into them. I was high on the Tigers to begin this year, but after it became apparent that their pitching would not be good, I backed off. Basically, support should not be mandatory; it should be earned based on performance.
When you grow up in an area that has a lot of Professional teams it's normal to grow being fans of those teams. I agree with that and understand that.
In my case, we don't have professional teams in Oklahoma and my family have been laker fans for a long time. So now We have the Thunder. I will watch them, I will hope someday they get good but I'm still a Laker fan. The Lakers have earned my loyalty and the Thunder have not yet.
Cubs is the best team in the league, and they struggle in the playoffs, so our Dodgers go to 2nd round. We are hoping they go into world series....LOL
Even though the Lakers, the Dodgers, and the Rams move around or move to a new town, It didn't threatened our family's loyalty and that pass it into us. Our family had never switches support to another team, but followed and supports our favorates players.

Yes the Rams run poorly for the last decade, but my family kept telling their self that some day they will be good again, but because Archie been my great papaw classmates in school we are rooting for the Manning brothers to do well with their own team.
Funny thing is, we always asks him why Rams and not the SAINTS?
He really doesn't answer any of us reasonable answer, "JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE THE RAMS, WHERE THE YOUNGBLOOD'S AND THE DRYER'S YEARS" and here we go again, hearing him telling us about them in their years like that year is now.
He is the same way with LAKERS, he go back Magic’s and Birds years but more of Kobe’s accomplishment with the team because he’s fresh out from high school.
The Thunder is young team and they have plenty of room to be great with Duran and with the community’s supports. Thanks for the visit and comment Miss ND.
Why you say that partofla?
Who does Kobe plays for?
Her Dad gotten her to like the Lakers Team, but her favorite player is Kobe, what is wrong with that?
Who knows maybe she is going to be a THUNDER FAN and Kobe can still be her favorite player right?
We all have our own favorite player and believe it or not all of them plays for different team...LOL
It's not easy being a basketball fan in Toronto when the vast majority of the city only cares about hockey. I like to think in my own perverse little world that I have raised a bit of awareness about the Raptors not only back home, but a little bit in America. They're a good, exciting team. Check them out when they come to your city if you can.
