We all make signs and go protest the next home game
Signs must demand trades, action etc...
I think we would be the first fans to ever protest our own team.

Protest the team? Sure, that'll really attract players tomplay in our city. They'll wanna come right over here so that if they hit a losing streak they'll be protested. If this continues, BC will be out the door. The players and coach should not get that negative fan attention.
yeah protest the team, if you really love someone brutal honesty is required in order to make the relationship work.
I also agree. No protesting players
Sorry, but that's not the answer. This isn't a relationship. Protest MLSE, protest, Colangelo, protest the coaching staff....but don't protest the players. You'll shoot the organization in the foot cuz players will not want to play here even more than they already don't wanna okay here.
I think protesting is a great idea but for it to be effective it would have to be well organized. For example setting a date for later in the season and purchasing a block of cheap seats and getting AT LEAST 200 people to come. Print some t-shirts. Maybe for the first 18 minutes we all stand with our backs to the court (1 minute for each year of torture). Send emails to media on what we plan to do. Basically embarrass ownership.
Yeah go ahead, make the raptors the laughing stock of the league. Give the media time to pay attention to our shittiness. Thatll make EVERYTHING better.
All thats going to do is cause an irrational move from the execs up top, derail our process as a team, and ruin everything for the rest of us patient fans.

keep using social networking to voice our displeasure for now, It doesn't seem like a bad idea but that may be because I'm very angry right now....
Rich people don't like to be embarrassed. Since they are not competent enough to compete while staying under the cap. Then why not go over. Look at the nba teams payroll. Why are we not close to the top? Because of suckers like us.
I guess you don't know very many rich people. Do you really believe that some petty little protest from 200 fans will produce any response from the owners? You idiots are suggesting that you buy 200 seats to do it. Seriously? This franchise is still one of the more profitable ones in the league and if you think that by supposedly embarrassing the owners they will change personnel you are very sadly mistaken.
What is the answer? Having Mcgrady,Vince and Bosh and getting absolutely nothing for them. I just want qualified people running my team. That's all. Getting nothing for those guys set our franchise back years. This is what I mean about going in circles
We already are the laughing stock of the league. Process? We suck! We always have! We are just going in circles.
shutup. No one cares for your 'Woah-is me' attitude.
Ill tell you what is NOT healthy for any progress:
Another Coaching Change
Another 'Blow it all up' season
Another desperate move to get slightly better in the short term
Cant you for a second see the message you are sending as representatives of toronto fans? We want to be known as the 'Best fans in the league', that is our only way to attract free agents from our part.
Just relax and stop watching for a while if you really want to protest.

Agreed, though I doubt fan reaction is a big part of player recruiting, even though every free agent ever signed sites the fans as a reason he did...that's bull.
You know what idiots, a few more wins and it's a 500 team, so just calm the f down. Demoralizing start to the year, yes, absolutely, team missing a true star player,yes, team missing a small forward, in more ways than one...misguided focus on running in training camp, probably, but if we had gotten the pacers opener, the jazz, the bobcats, let's say just those 3 easily had games that came down to make or miss, the playoffs would still be in sight,which is where the team is in it's stated plan, and should be. Leave the decision making to basketball professionals, pleeeease.
Oh, and maybe cheer for the team if you happen to be at a game and not in your basement.
RaptorsVic, Im not going to judge how much NBA you know, but going over the cap is not the answer.

Embarrassing the team more like it.
