Golden Tate: Our fan base kind of turned their back on us

#1


Quote:<div>After his Detroit Lions suffered another disappointing loss Sunday, wide receiver Golden Tate had stern words for the fans that exited the stadium in mass well before the game was over.
 
According to The Detroit News, over 60,000 fans showed up to watch the Lions take on the Arizona Cardinals. However, around 1,000 fans remained by the time the fourth started in the 42–17 blowout defeat. 
 
“Before the game started, I looked up, there were a lot of empty seats. Early on in the game, our team is getting booed,” Tate said after the game. “Later in the game, it sounded like the loudest they got was when (quarterback Matthew) Stafford was leaving the game and Dan (Orlovsky) was coming in. And that's not the support that we want.”
 
Tate went as far as to say that he felt abandoned by his fan base. 
 
“When we win, we all win together—the city, as an organization, as a state. When we lose, we all lose together. And today, I felt like, at times, our fan base kind of turned their back on us.”

Players that whine about stuff like that make me laugh.

 


Golden Tate should ask himself, if he paid money for an expensive IMAX 3D movie advertised as an entertaining film, and he walked into the theatre and the entire movie consisted of a fat guy taking a huge, huge dump for an hour and 45 minutes, and he walks out of the movie theatre in the middle of the movie, should the theatre staff, with surprised looks on their faces, run up to Golden and criticize him for turning his back on them, and that "when we have bad films, we watch them together"?

Methinks he doesn't understand the difference between the people who get paid to play, and the people who pay to watch those paid people play...

Gus Bradley said his team is built this year they will own the AFC South, team is dead last in the AFC South heading into week 6 with its only win against the Miami Dolphins whom fired their HC partly because Gus defeated him.

 

The fans still rally behind the Jaguars taking bus trips to Tampa to over take their stadium with cheering for their favorite team whom couldnt stop one of the worst offenses in the NFL until the rookie QB played the leagues worst DBs.

 

Poor Telvin Smith had to tackle everybody because the rest of the Defense doesnt know or care to...

 

Jag fans arent bad fans, and probably Detroit fans arent either... they've stuck with a stinking team for decades..
