For 12 minutes.

Hornets vs Magic.

They played a lot of gangsta music...

Left when the 'dance team'  (not cheerleaders, you understand) finished their thing after the first quarter and went round a few bars.

So it wasn't all bad.

Next time, I will miss the basketball out completely and it will be better.

Any NBA faithful here?

spaceage.

12 minutes -- heck you didn't even have time for the first fight to break out. ;D  Haven't been a NBA fan for years and it has a lot to do with the music selection! [sm_devil] ;D

LOL @ gangsta muzik.

I watch on rare occasions.   Usually when you have two marquee players playing each other. ex, Lebron Vs Wade.   I'll probably watch the first game that Iverson and Carmelo play together.  Other than that the game is too slow for me to watch. 

You have to admit Gilbert Arenas is a ball player.

Why did you leave after 12 minutes?  too much gangsta muzik or you didn't like looking at the dance team.  :drool:

i watch the spurs/suns/mavs  whenever they're on.   very good players, actually playing some team bball

spurs and mavs even occasionally play defense


3 best teams in the league , easily,  on top of it.

do the suns have what it takes to win it all.

not if stoudamire can't get back 100%

Threadjack,

Did you see the highlights from the UT and Oklahoma St game last night.  Great game.

I like NBA but generally prefer to watch it at home- beer's cheaper, can flip channels if the game's going poorly, don't have to share armrests with obese Lakers fans, etc.

Well, those 12 minutes of play actually took about 40.

There was a kid sat on his dad's knee behind me and using my back as a football/footrest more often than I would have preferred, the game wasn't electrifying, the beers were 6 bucks for 16oz bud light, they stopped every two minutes and they had some free seat upgrade or t-shirt presentation thing going on. 

The guy doing that stuff was some little white gangsta wannabe and annoying as all hell.

The gangsta music was probably the best part of the ordeal.

 :)

We made it to the end of the first quarter just to see the cheerleaders dance team and when they were done, so was I.

LOL!  ;D

You couldn't pay to go to that!  I had to endure a hockey game once. [sm_disgust]

I went to one Queens game, didn't care for it. Tailgating was awsome.  I'll tailgate again, but when the game starts, I'll stay outside, and watch the game on tv.

I guess seeing it live, isn't my gig.

My buddy is an OSU fan and we caught the last quarter of that in Tapwerks (they have about 200 import beers, wheeeee).

That was a great finish, like watching it in a movie.  With beer.

We hit a microbrew, a piano bar (don't ask) and then Tapwerks.

I had a great night, but the NBA wasn't why.

Oh, we did get some bobble head figures of CP3 (not a Star Wars extra robot, as I first thought but Chis Paul III) which are pretty cool. 

It's snowy and icy out so the attendance wasn't massive but the venue was great.  Lots of jazzy stuff and only built in the last few years.

 

[sm_shock] Say it isn't so. :sad3: ;D

The Queens were awesome, although we lost in overtime.  But trying to watch an NFL game live, not to mention; in the Metrodome, was difficult, and a letdown.

So it was an awesome letdown? :D

I MIGHT go to an NBA game if it were free, MIGHT.  Used to love the NBA; the one-on-one, 3pt or slam mentality just killed it for me.  It's better than it used to be a few years back, but that's not saying much.

I grew up on Celtics-Lakers during the time delay of the 70's and 80's.

Stroh - you are a blasphemer for your comments about hockey.  For shame.

LOL! ;D  You know what's worse??!!!  It was a pre season: Stars vs. Whoever game.

Like 4 years after Norm moved the team!!  WTF!!  Why did they even think they could come back and host a game here??!!

Target Center.  Long before "The X" was built.  I haven't been there.

My highschool girlfriend was the hockey coach's daughter...Down here, there's not a bad seat in the house for a hockey game.

I would have had a hard time going to that Stars game and enjoying it.  Pissed me off when they won the cup.

Obviously it was for free.

 :)

We missed out on box season tickets though, or whatever they were, which were closer to the bar.  That they were closer to the bar is the only bit I really listened to.

A friend called and said he wasn't going, so he could let us have his tickets, he can email them to wherever he wants apparently.

So, being the cool tech guy I am, I went to Kinkos which is close to the stadium.  Logged into my email and called the guy, 'hit me, I'm here.'

Bah, problem, the small print says he has to do the email thing at least 2 hours before the game starts and that is about 40 minutes away.

Oh well, we made do with the tickets we had already been freebied.

And the kid kicked me in the back, sweet fun.

You listened to the important part.  Your buddy shot me a picture of you that night.  Rockin cool beer holster!

I've been to a few Timberpuppy games and have enjoyed them a good deal.  Watching the play live was fun, but the best part is always the friends that I'm with.

Hahahah, campy.  I burst out at that, which means an extra kreamy one for you.

I saw the dead link last night and went to sleep on thinking of a polite way to tell lenny that he sucketh at the internets.

I wish I had gone your route instead.

 [sm_laughing]

Oh btw lenny, your link didn't work. 

 ;D

Damn Tripod for making me look the fool!!!!  It's suck a cool holster that I just had to rehost the picture myself (though the joke is well past now - except on me).

TFT - if you ever worry about being polite again with me, please reconsider.  My skin is thick, as is my fat-ass waist.

Hmmm, that piano bar said it didn't allow cameras in.

Lying buggers.

 ;)

I'm just relieved they didn't take one when the blow up friend was out.....

 [sm_shock]

That was the first pic I posted (said link now appearing to work, though rehosted). 

TFT, ready for action:

Heh, I know.

I had a look at the pic you tried to post before by following the url and I thought I'd set you up with a floater over the plate to get it back in play.

Home run, baby.

I'm on the lookout for a larger capacity drink holster though, you got any leads?

Maybe something involving a hat or straws, or both?

 ;D

I have never turned down a courtesy floater and I never turned down a courtesy date.  Appreciation on the former; no need for the latter.  Go to bed, you crazy Brit. [sm_beertoast]

I try and avoid sleep.

It's boring.
