TO: Kingsfans who cannot view games...

[albeitrue]

You guys are AWESOME! I never knew fans of ANY team could be so loyal, props to all of you who have to struggle to view and/or listen to the games.

You all make me feel like a weenie -- can't say with any certainty that I would remain a fan if I could not have complete and total access to games. It must be so frustrating, PROPS to all of you for hanging in there, and PROPS to VF21 for her undying loyalty to the pbp thread. And to those who are concerned enough to give info to others about listening to games on-line.

We are the best fans ever, and you all are proof positive of that!!! And thanks for your contributions on this board.

Great thread!! Of course, I'm biased.

I don't get to see the games as often as most of you guys do (I'm in the Philippines right now), and although we get at least one live game a day here, they only show the Kings like once every week or so. Twice, if I'm lucky. Ha... But I NEVER miss it for the world - I drop everything and stop work to focus on the game. Because of the time difference, the games are in the morning and I feel lucky that I have a job that allows me control of my time so I don't miss any of the aired games. I also usually watch the replays (at night) and just whenever the Kings are on TV, I'll be right there on my couch with my Kings stuff ...I was in the US for a few months last year, but unfortunately, it was the offseason and I was mostly out east so I never caught any Kings games then. Hopefully next season.

So whenever the games aren't aired here, I'm ALWAYS online (except if I'm out) on the NBA scoreboard and of course, I'm on here, following VF21's PBP, so I REALLY appreciate all the effort she puts into it. I also enjoy reading Bricklayer's grades (and comments), and other people's thoughts, raves, and rants about the game. I love the energy and enthusiasm here, from no less than the best fans ever! Whoo!

I

the Kings (and will be a fan forever!)! And I

Thanks,,, ya I live in Canada, and we don't get most of the stations ith the Kings but you know I get too see about 20-30 a year, good enough for me! I sitll read every game!

I've seen one Kings game in my life, and it wasn't even live. But its OK, as long as I've got this site, everyone in it and VF's PBP, I think I should be fine.

Well from France, I've gotta say that it's been tough to follow Kings for a couple of years but now we have NBAtv and I get to see 3 games per month.
You can't imagine how excited I was when I was studying in the US three years ago, with the opportunity to watch Kings very often.
Also, I've used sometimes bittorrent thing to see some game. I know it's illegal and I shouldn't do that but it's how far my love for this team goes.

Great thread, albeitrue.

I'd like to echo some of these sentiments. We have some pretty awesome fans. My hat is off to all of you!!!

 

[GoSACtown]

wow doone, you have only seen one kings game in your life ? are you serious ? what about all the playoff games ?

 

[Just_Lurkin]

well, it's either this or be a hawks fan. i think the former is less painful.LOL

 

[TheSerbianQueen]

I also get to enjoy only about 30 games a season (incl. playoffs), because that's all we get up here in Canada (unless you are willing to pay for digital cable).
so I am always excited for days beforehand, when I know there is a game coming up on TV. Month of January was completely KINGS-less as far as TV broadcast here. But it will start to pick up now: next one I get to watch is on Friday vs. Dallas.
WOO-HOO!

 

[Brewer16]

Thanks..only games I get to see are the ones on ESPN/TNT and the playoffs, but VF and espn make it pretty easy to follow games (thanks VF!)

I was at the Pacers game last year, where Bibby hit the buzzer beater to win it. It was sweeet

 

[doone]

The only Kings game I've seen was a playoff game. Last year Game 1 against Dallas.

Thanks 6th, but it was written FOR YOU TOO!!! Like I said, YOU are awesome...

WOW, you are from France, Phillippines, Canada ... Kings fans are everywhere!

Doone: I went to that same playoff game, took a good friend who died of cancer just a few months later, very bittersweet but oh-so-memorable.

We've also heard from fans (in other threads) who attend King's road games. There's nothing finer than seeing Kings fans in the crowd at road games.

GO KINGS FANS!!!

Thank you very much for the recognition. I'm from the Philippines as well & it is sad but true that we don't get as much Kings games here. So i make it a point that whenever a game is on, i'm able to watch it or i record it. & when there's a game that will not be shown at all in any of the stations that do show NBA games back here, i stay here & just read on VF21's PBP.

Just so thankful that we have a community like this & people who are the best fans in the world!

I Love this TEAM & I Love all the fans!

Go KINGS!!!!

i dont get how you can possibly be a fan lol...hey but props to you for doing it

 

[KingsChick]

Im from Chicago and its so frustrating not being able to see the kings play live in sacramento .. i'm really looking forward to the kings/bulls game, although it sucks its not in arco, this is my 3rd time going to a kings/bulls game in chicago . It is WAYY better watching the game live..lol I don't get how people CANNOT be kings fans because we are talking unselfish, great chemistry, teamwork, an overall great team.. and just words can't explain how big of a kings fan I am, they're like all just one big heart lol. My whole family and basically all the people I know are major kings fans. Im not a major fan of any other team except the kings. I get so happy when they're on TV whether they lose or win I still see them at least.

And thank God for this site and all the Kings fans from Sacramento and everywhere else there are no GREATER fans than you guys! This site is always available when the kings aren't on, too. THE KINGS FANS AND THE KINGS THEMSELVES CANNOT GET BETTER~!

Thanks a lot for your recognition. I've been doing it this way since 1994. It's been 10 years already? DAm!

Well suprisingly this year they have been showing quite a few Kings games here in India. Also I figured a way to download the games from the net. Although it's not live it's still great to be able to watch the games. Last year was really painful though. Great thread albeitrue.

 

[LPKingsFan]

Eh, I've had 19 years of seeing them live. What's a year at college only seeing them on national TV going to hurt?

I haven't seen a single game in real time this year. However, thanks to KK here, I've seen a few "re-runs", downloaded the next day. <Thanks again!>

Getting the audio is key also, so thanks to that thread.

On a brighter note, I think I'm gonna be going to the Wiz-Kings game here in Washington. I have tix, remains to be seen if I can make it or not. Life here is pretty danm hectic right about now.
