Clippers Front Office Get Rid Of Clipper Darrell

[QUOTE=GOBB]So what stops him from continuing to go to games as Clipper Darrell regardless? :confusedshrug:[/QUOTE]
Maybe they wont let him come in dressed up as Clipper Darrell? IDK.

Probably nothing... but it's the gesture that's so terrible.

This is the most loyal Clipper fan of all time, and he's getting public ally slapped in the face.

LOL@LAC. Seriously.

I was hoping Twitter'd teem Clipper Darrell important enough to get one of the verified checkmarks

This fan was straight up Buffoonery and Foolery and while this is a punk move by the Clipper Organization as this should have been dealt with in the off-season in a professional manner this fan made it a point that while at the games it wasn't so much about the Clippers as it was about him being a Fan Legend

Some of you have to see the Forest between the Trees sometimes with people and their agendas. He has a semi image of a Pimp who at times appears drunk, sloppy, disruptive, and out of sorts at games. It's not an endearing image of a franchise nor represents any form of professionalism even as a fan. Just because you commit so much of your financial resources towards a cause/work/company does not give you unlimited entitlement/right to display a poor image of a model fan that of which you claim....


This guy was a piece of work at times and like I said just as much about himself as he was the team.

That's exactly what you get a lot of when he's at the games.



You wish as an organization the Clippers would have better timing and professionalism themselves when resolving internal issues. Bad situation all around

Just the fact that this guy has a "Clipper Darrell" website, a "Clipper Darrell" myspace, a "Clipper Darrell" twitter, a "Clipper Darrell" facebook, a "Clipper Darrell" youtube, sells merchandise and the fact that you can "book" him goes to show this thing of his is not entirely about the Clippers anymore.


All they did was tell him to tone down the personal branding and attention whoring a little bit probably. So now he's crying foul to get more attention.

Yet most Clipper fans dismiss this notion when you mention Griffin, Paul and future success....

+ Infinity

I mean get real I as a paying fan would not want to sit through 41 home game watching him and his act. All the shucking and jiving with the Cheerleaders and running around like he's a Mascot and whatnot.....

Are you a Clipper Fan and/or are you role playing for an Oscar as a Clipper fan as Clipper Darrell?

"Uhhhh no calm down a thousand broham or else"

They want him to drop the "Clipper" from his name and stop marketing himself with it. Even offered him a free season ticket.

Totally reasonable request yet once again handle this in the off-season as he's been doing it for this long. It's not like this couldn't have waited to be addressed at a better time.

Yeah call himself "Darrell Darrell" and get Chris and Busta to put him on another remix version of "LOOK AT ME NOW" if he wants more exposure

I guess its just a huge coincidence that as soon as the Clippers no longer need the promotion that "Clipper Darrell" brings they all of sudden have problems with him making coin off of the name. SMH.

Agree 100 percent. Darrell is a pretty selfish dude. When you go to games and talk to him it's as if he loves the attention. Dude isn't doing it for the team, he's doing it for the fame. I get it... he's been loyal... but they are still giving him FREE season tickets. He rubs a lot of Clipper fans the wrong way including me.

When the Clippers were doing bad, it was ok for him to be "Clipper" Darrell. Now, the team is winning, and Sterling's greedy ass pulls this?

Really?

Watch him become Laker Darrell now. Everyone knows their quiet fans could use him.

What the f*ck is the Clipper front office smoking?

This guy is the BEST thing about the Clippers period...even with the additions of Paul and company. Come on now.
