Look! In the Sky! It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! No, it’s the Purple Hornet! This actually isn’t an audition unfortunately, but instead an interview with one of the Hornets most famous fans.

All Star Nods: West or Okafor?
The following is the first of what will likely be a recurring series here at Hornets247. It’s likely you have seen the Broussard vs Boucher weekly debate on ESPN. We have, and decided that we like it enough to roll out our own version. In this initial run, Mike and I debate who is more […]

Bee-Zanie Audition of the Day
For the next week or so I’ll be posting a new Bee-Zanie Audition daily. Unfortunately my flip cam sucked out on me so some of the sound didn’t get recorded. Either way, these videos are pretty funny. Props to everyone who went, and apologies to those who went and weren’t recorded by me. New camera […]

Hornets Center Emeka Okafor Faces an Uphill Battle for the All-Star Game
Emeka Okafor. Sexy. Unless you’re of the female gender, or just appreciate how a jacked man with shoulders the size of basketballs looks, those two words mix together as well as shrimp and crude oil. Press most Hornets fans and they will acknowledge that his basketball game is really more girl next door than Girls […]

D-West’s Game Winner
I could watch that all day, and that might just be what I do. Oh, and with 56 thumbs down (and counting) and a lone thumb up, this is the least popular comment in the History of our comment ranking system: “I hate David West with everything I have in me. But tonight, AND ONLY […]

Hornets Outlast the Thunder
The Hornets beat the Oklahoma City in an instant classic, 91-89 behind late game heroics from Chris Paul and David West. Paul came up with a steal with 10 seconds to go that allowed David West to take a game winning shot in the closing second, which he calmly nailed. It was a bittersweet victory, […]

Drink, Pray, Watch Basketball
(edit- Once in a blue moon the prayer is done by a Rabbi. Not sure how I missed that over the years.) Before each and every Hornets game for as long as the team has been in existence, a Christian invocation is done at half court before the national anthem, in which everyone is asked […]

Hornets Beat Down the NBA Best San Antonio Spurs
I was proud to be a Hornets fan tonight. In the third quarter the team played the best basketball I’ve ever seen at any time in my entire life. They were absolutely on fire on both ends of the floor and there was nothing that San Antonio could do to stop them. The Hornets absolutely […]

Calling all Hornets Fans: Bee-Zanies Tryouts Coming up
The Hornets are putting together a cheering section for their most hardcore fans, and tryouts are coming up. Awesome. Andrew Bogut did something like this in Milwaukee, and it went really well. I’ve thought it would be a great idea for a Hornets player to do, but it’s equally sweet that the franchise is doing […]

Hornets are Just One Injury Away From Disaster
Sometimes it’s good to take a step back from whatever you believe to be true in order to get a more objective viewpoint. I was recently asked on the Daily Dime Chat what the Hornets biggest concern is the rest of the season. Is it the attendance issue? The NBA owning the team? Chris Paul […]

Hornets Struggle Past the Raptors
Emeka Okafor, David West, and Jarret Jack. Oh, I thought you asked which Hornets players didn’t stink up New Orleans Arena on Martin Luther King Junior day. Honestly West wasn’t particularly good, but relative to the rest of the team he was great, and as usual he finished strong. Things were ugly for everyone else, […]
