[QUOTE=rufuspaul]Hey OWL. At least right now we've got the Panthers to keep us occupied. I too think we won't have an NBA season. It's a shame but it might be necessary to fix the league.[/QUOTE]
I can't imagine that the league can be 'fixed' any time soon because right now everyone is still self-centered. The players egos are too big. What's wrong with a 50-50 revenue split? What's wrong with enabling the small-market teams to be successful? That will take a salary cap so the Lakers can't spend 20 times what the Cats spend on player salaries, though, but I can just imagine players whining that they just can't live on 20 million dollars a year!

If what MJ said is true (that 22 out of 30 teams lost money last season), then I don't see the owners backing down any time soon.

Re: Welcome to the Charlotte Bobcats fan forum!
I hate it that I'm missin this season.
Re: Welcome to the Charlotte Bobcats fan forum!
Don't worry OWL, I'll catch you up.
We won our first game this year, which got us thinking, "Hey, maybe we won't be as bad as we thought." Then we lost a shitload of games, made national news at least three times for being absolutely awful, and I think the team is on the verge of complete anarchy.
In short, we suck.
Now you're good till the offseason.

Re: Welcome to the Charlotte Bobcats fan forum!
pray tell where is the best place to get accurate, indepth information about the Bobcats? They're official site is just a bunch of PR crap. I want info and objective analysis. Any ideas, guys? And gal. Where is TarCat these days? She's usually re-joined the forum by this time of the year.

If you don't trust the amazing Rick Bonnell and his stealthy reporting, there is a Bobcats blog, Rufus something, I think.

My brain is still so wrapped up with what I'm doing here in California that I didn't even think of the Charlotte Observer website.
Thanks!
