I'm in a Christmas kind of mood - who wants tickets for tonight?
I like to read all the posts on Golden State of Mind religiously, but I never really do post. However, when you do see my name, you know that I'm probably giving away some tickets. It's hard to see the Warriors still struggling, but it's good to know that there are still some fans out there with some faith. And since Christmas is coming up, I would like to give away some tickets for tonight. Last time, I tried to give away some tickets to the moderators, but today I will offer it to any GSOM member who is actually reading this post this early in the morning freezing their hands off.
Please finish this sentence:
I still believe in the warriors because. . .
This is all in good fun so creative answers will probably get some tickets. Funny answers are always good too.
Hope you guys all have a Merry Christmas.

I still believe in the warriors because. . .
I am not a fairweather fan and wagoneer and because I want to see Stalone catch a fire, AR and BW to stuff people, see SJax take more 3’s, and cheer when Andris makes clutch free throws (which imo are equivelant to 3PTers)
Hasheem "The Dream" Thabeet or Brandon Jennings. A Warrior in 09.
With the 6th Pick in the 2009 MLB Draft, the SF Giants pick Donovan Tate.

I still believe in the Warriors because...
they have more guards than Buckingham Palace :-)
and I’ve been a Hard Core Dubs fan since 1970 and have a foto with me as a kid being hugged by Franklin Meuli !
GO WARRIORS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still believe in the warriors because...
we have SOOOO much potential in many of our players that i KNOW will start blossoming once ellis is back!
AR – i think can be a superstar
WRIGHT – i think can be as good as beans
BEANS – i think can be an ALL STAR THIS YEAR
Ellis – the highest potential player to come through the warriors franchise in a very long time IMO
Morrow – a future all star sniper if he can learn to drive and dish
and also i really like two of our ‘veterans’
jamal
turiaf
and i love the swagger jack brings!
BTW: I just finished my hardest final….boy do i feel good, cant wait to watch (or be at) the warriors game tonight ;)
i cant wait till...
we can run:
ellis
jamal
beans
AR/wright
AR/wright/jack/turfiaf
not sure if nelly would actually run 3 ‘big’ guys at once, but i think it would be amazing with JC and ellis tearing shit up :)
nice
what school do you go to? are you completely done with your finals?

Throw in...
John Starks and you got yourself a team.
I Still Believe in the Warriors because...
I was there for them in the Tony Farmer, Melvin Booker, Terry Cummings, Duanne Furrelll, Bill Curley days. There are always going to be those dry spells. The Warriors just seem to always be in one, but for some reason, I still watch every game till the end. I’ve been going to games since the first drought started and still share season tickets. I’ve stuck through and backed the warriors through the thick and thin and will never stop!!.
I still believe in the warrios because....
I remember billy owen, tom guggliotta and todd fuller. And as bad is it may seem, this team has more talent than almost all the teams of the 90s and is more entertaining to watch than any team in the league.
Very NIIIIIIIIIICE of you!
I still believe in the warriors because. . . of the good folks rooting for this squad.

I still believe in the Warriors...
because I’ve endured this type of losing before the miraculous “We Believe” season. I’ve been a fan since I was old enough to walk up to the t.v. and change the channel to KICU or Channel 5 to watch RUN TMC. I was still around when we traded Tim Hardaway (my favorite Warrior of all time) and Chris Gatling for a Bimbo and Kevin Willis, and I was watching every minute when John Starks would try and bring us back from a deficit, only to miss shots. I’m not doing this for the tickets… but I’m doing this to reminisce about how strong my loyalty is to a predominantly losing team.

I still believe in the Warriors...
because this guy might give me tickets and I don’t want to waste a 45 min BART ride to Oakland to see them lose.
I still believe in the Warriors...
no one else believes in them. nah just fooling with you all (ustedes).
Seriously, I still believe in the Warriors…We got Rob Kurz on our team!
Seriously part II; I still believe in the Warriors…because I’ve always believed since 1981.
JR...An All-Time Warriors Favorite!
I still believe in the warriors because. . .

Fans like us cheer when warriors got some wins. But the Faker fans whenever their team won its just another basketball game so boring to watch. That’s why give me those ticket even thou Im here in L.A I can still book a flight and get there before 7:30pm

i’ve never known anything but warriors basketball. Watching a jax/beans pick n roll is quite possibly the prettiest thing this group can do on the court. Seeing how I finished up finals last week I would love to get out and cheer on our boys!!

nelson is able to plan the most intricate comedic schemes ever, e.g. = bringing back a broken chris webber to embarrass him.

TIME IS ALMOST UP
I hate having to choose people to give tickets to. If you guys can help since you’ve been reading this post, who do you guys think should get the tickets and why?

Give them to the students as a reward for their hard work.
I believe in the Warriors cause despite the odds against it they are still on the TV when I turn it on.

TIME FOR SOME RANDOM QUESTIONS
People who get most of these right will get some tickets. These questions are pretty much random so basically everyone has the same chances of getting it right. Good luck. Only 1 answer per question.
1. How old am I?
2. Am I really going to give out free tickets?
3. Am I a moderator secretly trying to bring back faith and excitement for the Warriors?
4. In what city do I live?
5. Who is m favorite moderator?
1. 19 years old
2. yes
3. no
4. frisco
5. yao

Hey NIIIIICE
That’s hella cool of you to be giving out tickets. I don’t think I can expect these tickets though. I have finals tomorrow morning at 8 (DVC REPRESENT!) and I would probably end up bringing my notes to the game to study in during time outs. So who ever is tryna go can take mine. My answers were super off anyways haha.
by Captain Jack on Dec 15, 2008 4:22 PM PST up reply actions
i know what you mean
I would definitely go to the game if it wasnt for finals.
My next choice for tickets is Mr. Monday Night.
If not then, ejdacanay.
Let me know your email Mr. Monday Night if you wanna go to the game. Thanks

HOLD UP
I hate to do this…my friend Dan was just like I won tickets to a Warriors game…turns out that friend is Chris Gatling! WTF NIIIICCCEE did u send the ticket out yet?
Well i gave him two tickets
Can he take you?
by NIIIIIIIIIICE on Dec 15, 2008 4:35 PM PST up reply actions
im stoked!!
btw since we are kinda on the topic…does anyone have tickets to the celtics game dec 26th that i can buy, willing to pay well for some decent tickets (pref lower bowl)…otherwise i gotta buy the basic upper level ones and i doubt there will be any sneaking down for that game :(
Just a reminder
I did send you two tickets, I’m not sure if everyone realized that but hopefully you bring another hardcore warriors fan.
by NIIIIIIIIIICE on Dec 15, 2008 4:36 PM PST up reply actions
hmmmm
well, i’ve got two tickets and I think everyone gave up . . . any moderators want the tickets?
So if no one can go...
I freed my schedule. Chrisgatling is already taking someone…I’d be taking my friend sarunasmarchilonis whose also a GSOM blogger! It’s your call NIIIICE
sure no problem
Make sure you study for finals though too, haha. Email please
Oh and you guys better sit in my seats, they’re only 5 rows up so they’re close enough. Plus, I always get mad cause people in my section are too quiet.
by NIIIIIIIIIICE on Dec 15, 2008 4:56 PM PST up reply actions
I believe in Warriors still
because we have enough good players. What we need to do is create an a team and a b team. A team plays against good teams. B team plays against medium to bad teams. That way we have balance in our team and noone is disgruntled
i still believe in the warriors because
