Since you like songs, how about this one, Queens' fan:

"We are the champions, my friend. And we'll keep on fighting to the end. We are the champions. We are the champions. No time for losin', 'cause we are the champions of the world!"

LOL. I can't believe none of these Sore Loserman types have had the testicular fortitude to answer your challenge. I guess it is beyond their limited conspiracy minds to accept that the Lakers are a more talented team than the Kings. So they have to cry and blame it on the referees.

Someone posted earlier that the foul total for the entire series was 174-170. Yeah....there's a fix. Keep crying and tell yourselves that, maybe you can form a support group or something - Depressed and Battered Kings Fans or something like that.

Bob Fitzgerald's observations and suspicions about Game 6 officials go back years, before Shaquille O'Neal signed with the Lakers.

I am not a Kings fan. I am a Warriors fan -- barely. They are so awful year in and year out it's hard to care. The Clippers have now passed them in promise for the future.

I was rooting for the Kings not only because I have despised the Lakers ever since I became a Warriors fan, but because they -- like the Yankees of the past decade -- are heralded as conquerors before they have earned the distinction. Even if they turn out to be right, it is profound disrespectful to the other competitors to suggest that they shouldn't even bother playing. And here you are, singing "We Are The Champions" before game 2 of the Finals. Typical.

Fans like yourself are part of the reason I root against teams like the Lakers, the Yankees, the Red Wings, Miami University, Notre Dame, and the Williams sisters.
