Well, it looks like its time to look ahead to the 2009 draft for our Thunder. Its has been a tough transition year but we can definitely turn it around in the coming years. It will be interesting to see who stands out in March Madness this year. If I were an online betting man and thought about a bet on March Madness, I would have to say that Oklahoma with Blake Griffin will be the ones on top.
Hopefully the ping pong balls drop right and and Mr. Griffin can grace the uniform of the Thunder. He will be a perfect complement to Durant on the floor. Hopefully he can help turn this thing around.
Out first preseason game tips off tonight.
And for all our readers in Billings, if you are over 6'8" and can play a little ball, come on down and I bet you can get some minutes for the Thunder.
Notes tomorrow.
The real team was announced this week. And I am talking about the new Thunder dance team. The don't have a cute name yet, but the girls seem to be less than ugly. And is you can tell from the pics, it looks like the finals were at Toby Kieth's I Love This Bar and Grill. Would have been cool to be there.
From the pictures, I can't tell if any of the former Honey Bee's are on the new squad. But I do think I have a good name for them. Forget about where your tickets are, these girls can be the most distracting thing on the court.
Let's hope not. But I felt the need to put this out here.
New and old haters are definitely around on the web. I wonder if this guy is even from OKC. Seems just like a covert Seattle fan. But regardless, they can eat it. We might lose for a couple seasons, but we will have some kickin' jerseys and some fly cheerleaders. And here are some auditions.
Hola, amigos. I know it's been a long time since I rapped at ya, but things have been getting plenty hairy around here. But our team has a new name and I feel the need to interject my opinion.
First, I think it is kinda bogus that we can't get jerseys. And even worse yet, we don't even know what they look like. That guy at too the max!! was still sporting old Sonic jerseys. Though I noticed he was wearing the early 90's era uni, one Shawn Kemp might have fathered some children while wearing. They said we have to wait 3 weeks to get jerseys and mascot info.
Second, the logo could be a lot worse. I mean, there is some dark blue in it, but no purple. And I really do dig the light blue in it and I am need one.
Lastly, the logo and the colors will change. No team, with a few minor exceptions, keeps their colors, logo or even cities the same forever. And usually with expansion teams in all sports, you find team colors and some times names, change early on.
VOTE! Poll on the sidebar.
No free shirts, but you can buy some stuff.
Word was going to come later this evening, but I guess officials wanted to make some money and sell some merchandise a little early. This confirms the leaked photos of OKC Thunder merchandise last week.
Thanks to David H. for the heads up and we will have more news to come very soon. Like what the jersey will look like.
