One more funny thing

I was reading a forum post that I've been following most of the day in order to gauge how other Magic fans feel. One thing that popped up a few minutes ago was what will we do about losing all the Serbian fans if Darko leaves the Magic. What the hell kind of stupid question is that? First, I think we'll pick up a few hundred new fans that want to see Rashard Lewis. And that number will be greater than the amount the Serbian fan base provides us. Seriously, do we think our fan base will die that much if Hedo or Darko isn't with the Magic next year? Secondly, who cares. They're not attending the games in large numbers and they are certainly not contributing to the overall tax revenue that will be used to build a new arena. People, winning is what brings new fans to the team. Some fans have been around for a very long time. And I think any loyal fan can tell you the difference in the atmosphere of the arena depending on whether or not the team is winning. Build a team that can win, and the team won't have to worry about losing 53 Serbian fans or 101 Billy Donovan fans.
