[top dawg]

Yes, this is a football forum, but the Bobcats make for more exciting news this time of year than the Panthers. Their FO is making some noise. LINK

Already posted where it's supposed to be...

yayyyyyyyy now we'll know what it's like to get ESPN love for no damn reason. Also get ready for the MNF guys to never shut the eff up about it during our games now.

Not for those of us who wouldn't care if they fell off the planet.

Well good luck to the bobcats they are really gonna need it now.

I loved Jordan as a player and keeping Jordan means keeping Brown (Larry, not Kwame... LOL) but I'm concerned about this on several fronts... 1) Is Jordan being sold the team because he's the most finacially viable bidder or because he's Michael Jordan? 2) As the majnority owner, will Jordan start showing up at games on a more consistent basis and engage the community?

Jordan is definately the sentimental favorite, but Postolos's accomplishments as the Rockets president are pretty impressive (see today's observer) and he sounds exactly like the kind of owner the Bobcats need right now.

On a side note, would this make the Bobcats the only ex-player owned NBA franchise... and if so, would that mean Charlotte is home to the only ex-player owned NFL and NBA franchises?

I just wish he'll change the name of the team, I've always hated the name because it was named after the owner. Seriously why?

Is it baseball season yet?

[CarolinaPride5]

A lot of people hating on a team that's almost in the playoffs? And beat the Cavs 3 of 4 times? Damn.
