I don't know if it is rude or inappropriate. I mean, if you are sitting down all set to watch a match and someone stands up and you can't see, it seems fine to ask them to sit down so you can see (as long as you don't do it in a rude or inappropriate manner). I thought a good compromise at championships was standing up during the pre-match team announcements and then sitting down during the match. Then everyone can see AND you still support your team.
