apparently you can get public recognition (no money unfortunately) if you make a wallpaper that the Bobcats like http://www.nba.com/bobcats/wow_us_wallpaper_060815.html

I figure some TWW cats have some Photoshop / Illustrator skills

yeah you guys are right, most expansion teams make the playoffs in their first two years in the league

8/15/2006 10:05:42 PM

Somebody take the old Fat Dump Happy Meal pic and photoshop a Bobcats jersey over his UNC one

8/15/2006 10:17:30 PM

^^OMG the Panthers and the Jaguars did it like in 3.

/sarcasm.

But seriously if you actually follow this team, you could see that they are headed in the right direction.

Also they will have plenty of ca$h to spend next summer on a big free agent possibly.

Actually, it was 2 years for both the Panthers and the Jags.

The Panthers went 12-4, 1 game away from the superbowl, and they beat the shit out of the Cowboys and the 49ers twice.

I'll never forget watching both Deion Sanders and Michael Irvin get knocked out of the game by that ferocious defense. Deion was stumbling around on the sidelines with a concussion, and Irvin came out of the lockerroom in a damn pimp suit, with his arm in a sling.

it doesn't help the bobcats that they came into the league just as the east actually became good.

8/16/2006 11:21:56 AM

8/16/2006 11:28:36 AM

Fire Bernie Bickerstaff! I really hate that guy.

8/16/2006 11:30:30 AM

he's a pretty good coach

8/16/2006 11:55:33 AM

i don't care that he's ranked around like 30-something on all time wins for coaches. he doesn't get me excited about basketball. he may be a fine GM, but i don't like him as a coach. here's his coaching record over the years.
