I pay my hard earned money to see the kings and whether some here agree with me or not, I boo to show my displeasure if they are playing like CRAP. As far as im concerned brad can kiss my a$$.

When did he say that?
 
KHTK played a clip of him after last nights game. Grant and Mike Lamb are talking about how the fans had every right to boo the kings last night. Grant said had he been sitting in the stands last night he would have done the same thing. Mike Lamb said that Brad is wrong to call us fairweather fans. It is up to Brad, who is getting paid 6 million plus, to motivate themselves and give the fans a reason to cheer them on.

I'd love to see proof of this(not saying it didnt happen), but I still want proof.
 
Bring it on, Brad. If this is true, he should be traded RIGHT NOW. And don't accuse me of hotheadedness because this is NOT the player I want on my team.

BTW anyone notice how heavily the Kings are advertising ticket sales right now? They are hurting.

ok...just heard it. Oh, FYI, Brad makes $10 million/yr;)
 
If your not here in sac I can't help you. If you do live in sac turn on KHTK right now and you'll hear the debate.
 
I heard it also.

Hey Brad....Maybe if you stop Kamen, Pryzbilla, Foyal and Kandi Man from looking like Wilt Chamberlin maybe they wouldn't boooo.

What radio station is it. I never listen to AM so I don't know.
 
Im sorry but after last night brad should not be opening up his mouth. What do you hope to accomplish by saying this?
 
It never made sense to me to boo your favorite team. Not even for lack of effort. I don't expect booing makes the situation any better, but rather makes things worse. I'd personally rather not contribute to a bad situation than make myself feel better by venting my negative feelings. That's just my opinion though.

I wouldn't call fans that boo "fair weather", but I certainly wouldn't praise them either.
 
I'm not mad at Brad. He can say whatever he wants. I'm sure it is just out of frustration.

BUt.... we can call a team that puts an effort like last night a FAIRWEATHER TEAM.
 
Thats not a very good thing to call someone. You don't call anyone a fairweather fan who isnt one. Its pretty damn insulting.
 
I'm just afraid that alot of people will take this statement seriously and intentionally boo him next game. I really don't want to see that happen. We are better fans than that!!
 
So you're all going off on Brad based on something Mike Lamb said?

...

...

And so it starts.
 
Ooh! This is going to be a good little chapter in the Kings season! Brad really pissed us off, most callers are screaming on the air at Brad! This is FIRE baby!!

It was a clip from Brad after practice. They played it at the begining of the Grant and Mike Show.

They are going off on Brad because of something Brad said..............that Mike Lamb brought up :P

I would really like to see a quote though....

Actually, Brad said it after practice today and they just played the clip on the radio....and yes...it does begin.:(
 
No VF, they played his comments on the air. Straight from the horses mouth. Listening to the radio its nice to know that im not the only one whos pissed.

Well, given some of the things we routinely call the players I think we are being a little thin-skinned here. ;)

This whole thing is getting dangerously close to meltdown though. Tuesday could be some sort of watershed if we don't bring it. Cavs are a good team. Young and inexperienced. But damn good. If we're flat again...
 
I would certainly give Brad the benefit of the doubt before jumping straight to the conclusion that he's badmouthing all fans.

You don't know the whole context. It could quite easily be something about the few fans who are ready to dump the team, who are booing at every game, etc.

I am NOT about to start badmouthing one of our own over something like this. Remember who MIKE LAMB is and how little regard he has for US or the KINGS before you take his word on anything.

Talk shows exist for controversy. If they can get people riled up and calling in, their ratings improve. Slimey? Yep. But it happens all the time.

Brad Miller has NEVER said anything disrespectful about us before. If, out of frustration, he made a comment then I certainly think he should be allowed the same forgiveness we give each other when we say something out of anger that we really don't mean.
 
BTW, for all us thousands of miles away people, does anybody have a direct quote? I do miss Reina with her full transcripts. :(
 
Oh, big tough guys. Brad can kiss your whatever...

GIVE ME A BLEEPING BREAK.

They played part of a clip. Were any of you there? Did any of you hear the whole thing?

Why would they play that clip? Love for the fans or the team? NOPE. They do it for ratings.

I cannot believe how incredibly fast some of you are willing to pillorize our own players.

Shame on every single one of you.
 
can someone post what brad actually said?

it could be something taken out of context, something he didn't really mean, something blown out of proportion, or a misunderstanding.

i'm not defending brad or anything (not taking sides. i only know what you guys are giving), but i don't think brad would intentionally say something like that to the fans.

i hope fans don't boo him because of it, though.
