Yeah, I came crawling back. Being this obsessed with the Hornets isn't healthy. I should have picked the Mavs or heroin or something back in the day. Stupid purple and teal Starter jacket reeled me in. Anyways, methinks we'll be doing the whole random shizzle thing more often now, since time spent previewing meaningless games […]

Game over.   I said yesterday that if the Hornets lost to the Raptors, the season was done. No Playoffs, see you next year. You know by now that the Hornets did indeed lose. And they didn't just lose in any old unspectacular fashion. No sir, not our Hornets. They waited until they had a […]

Well, last night's loss to the Sixers brought the Hornets crashing back down to earth. Just when I thought the season was finally beginning to look up, they go and drop one to the worst team in the Eastern Conference. Said Byron Scott afterwards: "Forget about this playoff talk. We got no chance if we […]

The Hornets are in Philadelphia today to meet the Sixers for the first time this season. Philly have been in the news for all the wrong reasons the past few months, from trading Allen Iverson, to buying out Chris Webber, to their lowly 11-30 record. After all that, they'd better get lucky in the Lottery. […]

Answers for the previous trivia gizmo are in the comments here. Now get cracking at this lot… Which Hornet has a brother named Jeremy balling at Gonzaga? Who the hell is Scott Cochran? Entering Tuesday's game in Philly, who was the last player to have a 20-10 game against the Hornets? What number did Byron […]

A few things worth your attention today. In no particular order… As mentioned before, I'm writing a weekly report on the Southwest Division as part of a big collaborative effort over at About.com. It's posted every Monday, and there's some great bloggers covering the other divisions, too. I think you'll find it's a handy way […]

I am positively BUZZING today. Forget drugs man, following the Hornets this season gives you all the highs and lows you need. I'd go so far as to say that the win over L.A. last night was the best of the season. The Hornets may have had better during the 8-3 start, but that seems […]

The Hornets lost to the Spurs last night, but as usual, I have F.A. time to throw out notes and thoughts on the game. Being a full-time veterinarian, sacrifices have to be made, sure you understand. Here's your linkage: box | recap | video | photos Real quick, David West and Bobby Jackson looked pretty […]

The Hornets take their unlikely three-game winning streak to San Antonio today, as they begin a stretch of four games in six days, three of which will be on the road. The 411… The Hornets have already played the Spurs twice this season, once in New Orleans and once in Oklahoma City. The Spurs won […]

Yes, the Hornets have one of those legitimate (i.e. more than two games) winning streak things like you’d read about in the Dallas or Phoenix newspapers. And it’s thanks to a bunch of scrappy underdogs like Jannero Pargo, who went and did some kind of Gilbert Arenas impersonation last night. News and notes and the […]

This latest edition of our trivia thing is all about Hornets' coaches. I'm talking past and present, heads and assistants. We'll do this in that oh-so-popular "Who am I?" style. So, yeah, get started… I have the best winning percentage of any Hornets head coach ever. I'm currently an assistant with the Detroit Pistons. Besides […]

I’ll barely have time to shit tomorrow, so this is going up now. In fact, I’ve been so busy lately, that I even completely forgot about the seventh anniversary of Bobby Phills’ death. And I call myself an old school Hornets’ fan? Shame on me. The Magic are 22-16 on the season, having cooled a […]

As you may already have heard, tonight's Hornets-Bucks game has been postponed. Details here. So it's all about the Saints tonight, baby.

Great win for the Hornets last night. Feels real strange being on a winning streak. Linkage: box | recap | video | photos. I have absolutely no time to do this today, so not even a half-assed preview for the Bucks game tonight. Good news for us is that Michael Redd and a whole host […]

The Hornets take on the other end of the alphabet this evening when the Washington Wizards hit the Ford Center. This is the first game of a back-to-back, with our guys travelling to Milwaukee to play the Bucks tomorrow, a game that will no doubt be completely overshadowed by Saints vs. Eagles. But before we […]

The Hornets took a trip to Atlanta yesterday and came away with one of those win things. In fact, not only did they win, they straight up blew out the Hawks, 96-77, running the lead to 27 at one point in the fourth. It's obvious now that the Ford Center was largely to blame for […]

Ok, I've got about five minutes to do this, and I'm real hungry right about now, so what follows may not be entriely coherent. It's a pity, too, because there's plenty to talk about today. Alas, it will have to wait, although this guy summed up the absurdity of the Bojangles situation pretty good. (Imagine […]

All the losing is getting real old by now. The Hornets finished up their four-game homestand last night by losing their fifth straight game. The Clippers were the ones taking advantage this time, using a fourth-quarter surge to win 100-90. Linkage: box | recap | video | photos That makes it 19 losses for the […]

I was counting on today's preview being done for me. It isn't, and time is short, so this will be the definition of half-assed. (Imagine a picture of Elton Brand here.) Know that the Clippers are playing the fifth game of a six-game road trip, and they come to the Ford Center having lost three […]

Given that the Hornets suck, I needed a distraction, so I went and checked out every cheerleader dancer eligible for that Vegas All-Star thing and picked a top five. Please note that this is based solely on looks, because personality and dancing ability don't really matter a shit. Without further ado… 5. Sarah from the […]
