My dislike for everything about how the Oklahoma City Thunder came to be is documented pretty well, so I’m just going to skip ahead to the part about how the “enthusiastic” and “deserving” Okie fans are dealing with a team that doesn’t have Chris Paul:
With 2:50 remaining in the third quarter Wednesday night, Thunder fans no longer could contain their frustration.
So they did the unthinkable.
They booed.
For two full seasons while hosting the displaced Hornets, local NBA fans never booed the home team.
That came while the Clippers were in the middle of a 42-12 run — the Clippers! — that sent the Thunder to their ninth straight loss. They’re now 1-11. Congratulations, Clay Bennett. You took a successful NBA franchise and turned it into the Grizzlies. **dances jig** **waves genitals around**

The ‘Thunder’ would be a laughably queer mascot even in the WNBA or MLS.
Somewhere Shawn Kemp is pulling out of one of his daughters’ friends for a quick fist pump.
You’d boo if you lived your whole life like Tom Joad.

That “Thunder Cock” logo would be great for a queer bar.

So is it bad that I have that tattooed on my waistline?
Note: the genital-waving is unrelated to the above story.
Surely you saw this: [www.nytimes.com]
Greek God Zeus frowns on the misuse of the name the ladies call him.
When I read that Oklahomans did something “unthinkable,” I just assumed it meant that they:
1) Read a book
2) Made a black friend
3) Ate a vegetable
4) Voted for Obama, or
5) Won a BCS bowl
Thunder Cock? I hardly know her.
(WDYA, Make Me a Channel of Your Peace still stuck in my head, thanks for that.)
“So is it bad that I have that tattooed on my waistline?”
Actually, that would be a great tattoo to impress the ladies with
This post allowed me to keep my morning wood going for another three hours.
…And you tagged this post with SEATTLE SONICS. Awesome! Now I need to find something to rape.
I love how you ignorant people get on this bullshit rumor website and write your little blogs while your probably and home jerking it to animal porn. Lets clarify a few things here, I sit on the floor front row of every thunder game, as I did for every hornets game, and let me be the first to tell as with the hornets, no thunder player was ever booed as was reported by the retard reporters we do have here in oklahoma. We may have booed refs, opposing players, and the numerous bad calls NBA refs make, but our player were never ever booed. So suck on that. Number 2, now how many of you loud mouth blogging retards ever attended a sonics game, or have attended a thunder game… ya i didnt think there was many. Explain to me how a city that has a team but has a average attendance of maybe 10000 (keep in mind, 5000 of those seats were filled by corporations and companies put their employees asses in seats b/c no one in seattle wanted to watch the sonics), but here in oklahoma we sell out basically every game…without much help from our corps…(i.e. chesapeke, devon, midfirst bank, etc.) so basically you can make your thunder cock comments and what not, but when you get down to the facts and look at it, it is you people onsites like these that are bitter b/c your life sucks, your probably fat and get no vag…so do us a favor write your good bye blogs and go choke on a “thunder cock” since you seem fairly good at making jokes about them anyways… thank you and have a nice day…
and btw, have fun while your typing and losing your money, if you havent checked oklahoma is one of the most recession proof states, so while we have a team and we have money and we are happy laughin at you sad people, cheer up its the holidays and all of your lives suck… GO THUNDER! GO OU!
“With Leather is a blog about all the assholes and idiots in the world of sports, and the hot chicks who date them. People who get offended or take too much pride in their favorite team should probably just leave now, because I hate you already.”
A reader here who hardly ever comments, but I’m going to take exception to the OKC Thunder cock-hole who just bagged on Seattle.
I am from Seattle. I have been to many Sonics games. What people from OKC cannot seem to grasp (intentionally perhaps?) is that attendance twindled for one reason:
Clay Bennett did his best to put out the worst possible product and alienate the fanbase; thus, people were not going to shell out their hard earned money to support a man who had no intention of keeping the team in Seattle.
It’s a cause and effect relationship with Mr. Bennett as the catalyst for the negative effect.
Is this that difficult to understand?
mucci – you can speak for an entire stadium as to what they’re booing at? congrats on being the voice of oklahoma.
well freeway rick i guess offering three sites to build what would have been the nicest arena (surpassing denvers) and drafting kevin durant qualifies clay in tryin to make a bad product you should probably stop there, im sorry your team sucked ass….yes sucked ass when the professional basketball club L.L.C. bought them… since we have been in office we have been drafting quality talent and are preparing salary cap room wise to make big moves for better players and still have something like idk 10+ draft picks leading into the 2013 season…and merk…who are u… i dont speak for my state but i attend the games and sice you dont watch them i believe id be a little more informed at what the boos are about
you people in seattle are crap fans that gave up when the glove and kemp left…your crap
lol you live in oklablowma
Well, that stirred up some shit, can’t say he doesn’t make a point about OKC supporting their team.
However: “oklahoma is one of the most recession proof states”. Hard to dip into a recession when your economy starts from a baseline of absolute zero and is based on (i) tumbleweeds, (ii) dust bowls, (iii) Texas rejects, and (iv) seized Indian territory. That is all.
wow mucci really doesnt get it. dont you realize nobody here gives a fuck about oklablowma(thanks anemal).and usc dominated your fat, slow and stupid ou team. and California will always be hot bitches recession proof while oklablowma will never be fat ugly stupid bitches recession proof. go lakers we are the best your team sucks. yeah and im sure the fans WERENT booing the team while getting blown out by the only team in the league that could compete with thunder cock for the worst team in the nba. i could have said i second saunders but your a complete douche bag and should stfu.
Yeah I’m pretty sure mucci and rossmoor are the same guy. The writing style gives it away. Flame war’s over pal.
nope notice the spelling
btw go felch yourself cf
Lamest posts ever?
I say, yes.
Avid With Leather reader and from Oklahoma.I was at the game… and the crowd DID boo. Not sure who or what exactly, but they did boo and it was after a Thunder missed shot. That being said, the arena was 95% full, 90% more that Seattle in recent years. Granted the team was dismantled for the very purpose of moving, don’t blame Bennett (he is a douche) blame your elected officials and Schultz. It is in the past, get over it. It happens, I dont see the team being here for more than 10 years to be honest, mostly due to Bennett and his poor financial planning. However, the team has seen alot of support – being as awful as they are. Fans are allowed to boo, they paid admission to be entertained and they were not, so why is it a big deal? Oh wait, maybe it is because of Matt and his obvious hate for the Thunder. (Also, who cares that OU lost USC 4 years ago, we are over it and you should be too – besides OU has more AP titles than USC – so eat that!) As far as Matt and his absolute hate for the genesis of the Thunder, I agree it was sh*t, but get over it. It is a business and once you realize this, know that teams move (Oilers, Browns, Dodgers) – you own nothing but your memories and really, those are worth more in the end. Cheers.
Whoa whoa whoa. Who invited the guy with a sense of perspective?
Wow, the Thunder finished the regular season with a 50-32 record, and succeeded in winning game 3 and blowing out the Lakers (the defending champs) in game 4 of the playoffs on Saturday. I guess the move to OKC and the lack of support and terrible financial planning is finally taking its hold.
The OKC area has 1.2 million people. You guys bagging on Oklahoma are some of the most ignorant people I’ve ever seen. It’s not just “tumbleweeds” and “dustbowls” here. Why do you think the Hornets loved it here, and the Thunder (and KD) especially do? Don’t badmouth something until you actually check it out.
I wish I could see your faces when the Thunder win the championship.
It will happen sometime in the near future.
Ok. So let’s get a few things clear: I’m from Oklahoma. I have read many books (masters degree), I have black friends, I voted for Obama (as did every 1 in 3 okies), and I have eaten veggies, alot. I understand Californian’s (I’m assuming lakers fans are behind this) anger, but remember, you did choose to follow a sports team that might occasionally loose. Take your lumps and don’t make fun of the people of Oklahoma just because you lost. Oklahoma’s economy IS woefully lopsided: Oil and gas, and agriculture. We DO need to diversify. But you’re not really interested in our problems. You just want to bitch about the team that you like happening to loose to the upstart new team. All of that out of the way, the thunder are a joke. the state can only afford them for so long. I can’t wait to see the team return to Seattle. I will help them pack.
