    The Jazz fans made ESPN's front page!

    Another Ugly Incident:
    Irate Jazz fans pelt court, refs with debris after game
    http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/index

    The recent, ugly trend of angry fans hurling debris onto the playing surface reached the Delta Center in Salt Lake City after the Kings beat the Jazz 98-96 on Saturday. With the game tied, a questionable loose ball foul sent Chris Webber to the free-throw line, where he hit his third and fourth FTs in the final 8.5 seconds for the win. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=221214026

    The Jazz have the worst fans in the league. Stockton got the benefit of a dubious call on Jackson before Webber got the foul in his favor when Amaechi touched him.

    That was SUCH an uplifting game to watch after the awful Rockets game.

    Has anyone ever seen a better sight than John Flopton missing a game-winning free throw? That was so beautiful.

    I could watch that over and over again. That was sweet.

    Finally some justice for that Rockets/Jazz playoff game. They needed to be screwed in the A$$ for sometime!

    Hey, soccer hooligans have lynched officials who decide games against their team. This incident (throwing sh*t on the court) is pedestrian in comparison.

    It doesn't justify throwing crap on the floor and making an @ss out of yourself, especially from a fan base that claims they're classy and their team is classy and tries to rub it in your face that they're allegedly classy. I've see far worse calls cost teams more important games.

    The words Karl Malone, bear-hug, and Clyde Drexler come to mind.

    Well I guess you can't blame them. If you were a Jazz fan you would probably be throwing !@#$ on the floor every game as well.

    If I was a Jazz fan, I would have shot myself in the face four years ago.
