Around SBN: Todd Haley Is The Steelers Next Offensive Coordinator

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 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)

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 ;)

by DeepS on Dec 15, 2008 11:54 AM PST reply actions  

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 :)

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!!.

by belinell on Dec 15, 2008 12:24 PM PST reply actions  

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.

by Warriors510 on Dec 15, 2008 12:58 PM PST reply actions  

Very NIIIIIIIIIICE of you!

I still believe in the warriors because. . . of the good folks rooting for this squad.

by Atma Brother ONE on Dec 15, 2008 1:01 PM PST reply actions  

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.

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.

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!

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!!

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?

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?

Thanks for everyones comments and hope you guys have a good time at the game. You will all be sitting next to each other if you actually sit in my seats.

by NIIIIIIIIIICE on Dec 15, 2008 4:18 PM PST reply actions  

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?

by Captain Jack on Dec 15, 2008 4:33 PM PST 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 :(

by DeepS on Dec 15, 2008 4:35 PM PST reply actions  

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  

yep, my buddy that im bringing is the one who made me into a basketball fan/warriors fan like 8 years ago

by DeepS on Dec 15, 2008 4:37 PM PST up reply actions  

and yes, i got the tickets…thanks so much! :) good luck on finals

by DeepS on Dec 15, 2008 4:38 PM PST up reply actions  

hmmmm

well, i’ve got two tickets and I think everyone gave up . . . any moderators want the tickets?

by NIIIIIIIIIICE on Dec 15, 2008 4:53 PM PST reply actions  

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

by Captain Jack on Dec 15, 2008 4:53 PM PST reply actions  

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

by asandhu23 on Dec 16, 2008 1:01 PM PST reply actions  

I believe in warriors

because noone else right now does
