respect

I don't think the magic get the respect they deserve by the media. To be honest i don't think they ever will even if they win a championship. It's all about the media and who they

The reason we arent gettig respect is not Otis it is that we have the market to be a big time town but the fans around here are fair weather fans. Look at the packers, and the Celts their teams were pretty bad for a while and their fans still supported them. With us if we arent winnig alot or dont make the most popular move every one of their so called fans hates on the Magic weather it be the organization, the ownership, the front office or the players. we have the abbility to be a huge market if we all had the right attitude.

its all speculation assuming any person could do a better job than otis...but i can promise you that our team would look different than it does now.

 

as far as the respect thing goes...how much respect do you want from a team that only made it to the second round in the EASTERN playoffs?

You know as much as i hate to admit it that's true too. It's that and as much as what the national media wants to happen as well. The magic need the support of it's fans as well. But until the "steven a smith's" of the world give the magic the respect the earn they will for ever be an after thought as far as national coverage is concerned.

As a Packers fan for most of my life, this is offensive. No one cared about the Celts until they got KG. I guarantee you could've gotten season tix for them a couple of seasons ago.

Ok let's see the national media, if it were up to them they didn't see anyone in the east excecpt detroit and boston all year yet the magic had winning records or tied both of them for the season. And the magic had a winning record against west as well. And if if weren't for d12's injury I will gaurantee they they would have definately beat the pistons.Oh yeah and the national media didn't even cover the fact d12 was injuried until it came till the olympics.

I didint mean to offend any Packers or Celts fans but a few years ago you couldent even give away magic tickets. I know that there is still a waiting list to get season tickets to the packers, and while the Celts you could get tickets yes but their arena was mostly full. while ours was empty most of the time.
