Good evening. I normally don't post in these forums. i just read. For several years I have got a portion of my daily news, opinions, and mostly entertainment from this board. I'm a Utah native, but now living in Colorado. Salt Lake will always be home, but I'm not planning on leaving this area any time soon. I greatly miss the Philadelphian, the Bayou, and Pats, but I'll be back soon to visit. There are some pretty bltchen places here to eat and drink as well. Irrregaurdless <sp> of my exodus to the Centennial State, I've stayed true to my Utah Jazz. On Fridays, if I decide to roll my fat butt into the office, I proudly wear my blue Jazz note hat, and go about my day. I have a buddy that I make Facebook bets with when they Jazz play the Nuggets, but nothing too serious. I had that Mosgov dunk as my wallpaper for 24 hours. I made him change his wallpaper to a picture of Gordon Hayward (pre haircut). I love talking to Nuggets fans because I tell them that we really don't have a rivalry because they have always been bad and havsae never really had too many playoff series. It puts a smile on my face every time.Other than that, there aren't many Nuggets fans willing to talk trash. I'm guessing they have given up. You don't want to mess with their Beloved Broncos though. Not where you can buy a Peyton "F*&^%^&g" Manning T-shirt outside the Pepsi center before and after Avs games and on many street corners in downtown Denver.
During the regular season, this board is good for me to get general fan sentiment and updates. Most of the major updates I get are from here. Folks are trigger happy like to be the first to post the breaking news. The Twitter feeds blow up, then everyone wants to speculate. It seems like a competition, which in itself is entertaining. The offseason is fun on here because of players are leaving, the draft is counting down, free agent rumors, etc.. Then the summer league and more free agency talk follows. Then come the batcrap crazy ideas people think is that one missing piece that we've been missing since our days in New Orleans. Then in about August, folks get really bored and start doing fantasy games and talk about whatever they can think of. Mostly football. I hear there's a pretty good Utah State/BYU rivalry in football.
Anyway, I've been a Jazz fan since I can remember. One of my first memories was watching a Jazz game against the Sixers, and DR J was still playing. They interviewed him after the game and I thought he was the coolest dude. Don't worry, I didn't become a Sixers fan. When I was young, my parents had to bribe me with Jazz tickets not to swear. I would swear at church, at school, and in front of my grandparents. They tried giving me hot sauce, but I liked it. They would try leaving me with the babysitter, and I would just swear until she cried and called her parents. Yeah, I was the kid that nobody wanted to babysit. So my parents had to do something. They had season tickets to the Jazz and they made a deal with me that if I watched my mouth around the right people, I could go to the Jazz game with my mom or dad. I was still able to swear when no one was around or around my friends. I'd like to think that I've perfected the art of profanity over the years. Once I learned how to somewhat control my swearing, I was going to Jazz games weekly. I got a number 12 uniform in Junior Jazz, and became a Stockton fan. I used to love going to games. We would stay after autographs from the players and coaches. It was fun to be able to talk to the them. I also miss listening to the Jazz band that used to play during intermissions at the old Salt Palace.
The reason I'm climbing out of my shell and posting tonight is because I will be attending the Jazz game in Denver on March 27th. The last time game I saw the Jazz play was when Deron Williams had that awesome dunk on a fast break against the Spurs. My memory is bad, but that had to have been around 2009 or so. Fortunately, I have NBA League Pass and I get to watch every Jazz game on my Note 4. If I didn't have it, I would go crazy about probably become a Rockies fan... NO THANKS! So I got the tickets for ridiculously cheap. "Thank you Ticket Oak." We have lower balcony seats and I think there's a good opportunity for us to get on camera with a sign and/or jersey. I'm thinking about having a green Gobert jersey made that reads on the back THX4GOBERT. I think Harp would enjoy the signage, "FIRE HARPRING". There's "Rudy F*&^%^&g' Gobert" or my favorite, "Jazz Smoke the Nuggets?" Any other suggestions? It's good to just kinda talk it out, and come to a consensus. Keep in mind, that I'm going to be the friendly rival, who interacts with the fans kindly, but cheer my *** for our beloved Jazz. I don't want to get knifed or shot. If they want to pour beer on me, it's cool, I'll just open my mouth and enjoy. Did i mention the beer in Colorado is amazing? Seriously though.. This is a good time to be a Jazz fan. We're young, we have talent, and hopefully the coach to take us to the promised land. Be prepared, there will be bandwagoneeeeers. Thank you, and good evening.
