After Party
Last night we here at Hornets247 hosted our first ever Hornets watch party, which may or may not have been the best party in the history of mankind. It all went down at Handsome Willy’s Bar and Lounge in the heart of New Orleans. The good folks there went all out with a massive screen […]

The DVR League Pass Report #1
My League Pass almost always shows the broadcast for the team opposite the Hornets, so I’m going to make note of some of my favorite bits from the announcers here. (Note: All my journals will be late as I’m almost always watching the game the following morning. I perform live comedy most nights in Austin, […]

Morris Peterson: Un-Sung Hero
Of all the guys on the Hornets starting five, the most maligned would definitely be Morris Peterson. He also plays the fewest minutes of any starter, and is the first to be subbed for in Byron Scott’s rotation. Couple that with the fact that the guy that replaces him is a fan-favorite (Jannero Pargo last […]

James Posey is a Phantom part III
As I pointed out last night at the Worlds Most Awesome Game Watch Party Ever (c)(r)(TM), Posey wasnt in focus when he was being displayed in High Def! Now, please excuse me while I close my office door and fall alseep at my desk.

The Hornets beat the Warriors
After a hard fought game, the Hornets took until the last 29 seconds to finally close out the Golden State Warriors. The game was a nail-biter and had my buddy complaining that he was gonna need blood pressure medicine during that final minute. Before I get to the observations, I first need to declare that […]

Viable Visions
As I sit down to watch the season kickoff show on TNT I find myself in a mixed wave of emotion. Coming off a seeming endless wave of negative situations in the long anticipated Saints season it seemed as though nothing could go well. Not only do we, a city who lost a whole season, […]

James Posey is a phantom II
Nope, not a single frame. I have a theory. Maybe he can only be in focus when his teammates are in the frame. Maybe, he doesnt really exist unless his teammates are that close to him. Beats me, but here’s George Shinn and the Honeybees.

If you don’t already know, you can find all the details about the party listed right […]

An ode to my Teal Hat
When I first started going to Hornets games a few years back, I was, as many of you are in your 1st Hornets experience, without Hornets apparel. It was time to fix that situation, HIVE style. I bought this teal hat with the then official Hornets logo on it. I decided to spread the word […]

James Posey is a phantom
I went to the Swarm last night, cameras in bag to get up close and personal shots of the Hornets and I got much more than I expected. Saw Ticktock6 and Niall Doherty of course, the Queen and King of Hornets blogging, as well as many other commenters (good seeing you!). I got shots of […]

The Saga That Was My Season Tickets
Ok, I’m in my 4th year as a season-ticket-holder for the Hornets, well 2nd full season. But, I’m counting the two OKC years dammit…. not my fault the Bees weren’t here the whole time. Anyway… I heard that the Hornets had contracted their ticket-printing to a company in Arkansas, and, in a tragic twist of […]

Introducing the Blogger’s Power Rankings
One day, I was driving into work listening to the book The Wisdom of Crowds. The book was nothing if not convincing about the power of a group of experts, appropriately isolated, to pick the correct answer more often than a single or pair of experts. So – I figured if all of us blogger-types […]
