Yes, but that's not the point. We have to wait until preseason for some good ol' Hornets bball. Time to study up on the NBA draft or sumpthin... :O I believe it was nice to see a healthy contingent of South Ovarians at "THE HIVE" yesterday.
i believe some chick took my picture for some magazine when i was at the game the other night. i also believe monica and i were seen on the "big screen" dancing.
I believe I will be at the Hive on Wednesday 'round noon. I also believe the #12 and #15 picks will be nice contributors for the near future.
The italics are mine, but if you read between the lines it is exactly what I've been saying; they are positioning this thing so that from a PR standpoint they can throw up their hands and say "well, we tried, but it just doesn't make sense right now." I believe the Hornets aren't going anywhere.
In other words, he's going to say, "we definitely want to come back, but we have to have economic guarantees that we don't go bankrupt for doing the right thing." The city and state can't afford to give money to an NBA team to stay, and NBA owners won't subsidize a million each per year for the foreseeable future, either. If the city or state did try to give money to the Hornets to stay, there would be a national outcry. I seriously don't see any scenarios whereby they return to NOLA in the next five years. I believe that when the NBA returns to the Crescent City, it will be a team OTHER than the Hornets.
I believe I wish I didn't have to buy a new computer so I could have bought a mini-season plan like I was planning.
I also believe there are certain people who are employed by the Hornets organization who have, lets just say a healthy amount of income, who want to make an investment and are downright giddy as to the ameneties of said investment in our fair state. I believe a larger investment is needed in NOLA for a return of comparable ameneties.
