I've been thinking about what the proper reaction should be for fans attending home games. I was at the "Here We Stay" game vs. the clippers last season and it honestly felt like a playoff game with signs and chants and such good positive energy and emotion directed towards the team. However, the team is not who we have beef with, it's the owners.
In MY opinion, should we boo the Maloofs if they ever show up to another home game? No, I dont think we should. Silence speaks louder than words in my opinion. If you've ever seen the youtube video of UC Davis Chancellor Katehi walking to her car surrounded by UC Davis protestors, you HAVE to check it out. Surrounded by protestors, you would think there would be booing and chanting by no, the protestors were completely silent. Not a word was said. Not a sound was made. They just stared at her while she walked to her car. (link to the video here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8775ZmNGFY) It was the perfect reaction to that situation and I believe made a greater impact than if they had booed.
What do I think our reaction towards the Maloofs should be? GO TO THE GAMES and support the team, a boycott does nothing, we should support the players. DO NOT buy any merchandise or concessions. Feel free to make signs or tee-shirts speaking our displeasure with the Maloofs but again, like I said, silence speaks volume. We should try to pack the entire arena and just for the first quarter, BE ABSOLUTELY SILENT. Just sit there. No clapping, booing, cheering. A completely solid out arena with nothing but crickets would have the greatest impact I believe. After the first quarter is finished, rock the s*** out of that arena!
Anyways, those are my thoughts. GO KINGS!!!
