It has just come to my attention that KTBC FOX 7 Sports reporter John Hygh is a Dallas Mavericks basketball fan. Really? How can anyone be a Mavericks fan? I remember back in 2000 I was guilty of thinking hey this team might be good. Then they got knocked out of the playoffs year after year after year. I understand the concept of fair weather fan but after a while you gotta realize that sometimes the grass is greener in San Antonio. GO SPURS!!! I have several friends that are Maverick fans. Every year around this time I have to be careful not to bring up b-ball for fear that I might hurt their precious feelings. Here is an
blog excerpt from a good friend of mine..."Early prediction for next season? They fire Avery, Bring in somebody
else, keep the same basic team, by the all star break when they are
25-30, fire sale, for cap space and draft picks. I think Dirk will be
the only one standing when its all said and done." This of course was written before they fired Avery but I imagine that if that the rest of his prediction proves true the Mavs will be right where they are this year. GET RID OF DIRK... He is getting old and the Mavs gotta do something big to be a contender. Think Boston. That is all. Better luck next year. Man I hope the Spurs win tonight.
