Deron Williams has a piece of artwork in his locker.  It’s a masterpiece of number 8 himself, drawn by a child.
He made this statement in regards to his absence:
“I would like to thank (Jazz owner) Mrs. (Gail) Miller, Greg Miller and Coach (Jerry) Sloan for allowing me to return to Utah to be with my [...]

I’ve heard one thing come out of David Locke’s mouth more than any other: “Turnover on the Jazz.”  EEK.  I heard it so much last night my ears began to burn.  When things go wrong with their team, many Jazz Fans turn to stats.  I, being a normal woman, turn to food.  So in celebration [...]

While at the Jazz/Rockets game Monday night I was intrigued by the guy sitting next to me  (he’s provided fodder for two of my blogs.  Thank you to Guy-in-gray-hat-with-strange-facial-hair.).  For one thing, he was louder than I am.  No one is louder than I am.  But the most intriguing thing to me was that he [...]

Tonight I had the great…honor?…of attending my first game this season. 
A little ways into the first quarter I leaned over to the guy sitting next to me, pointed at this lurpy strawberry blonde haired kid on the court and said, “Hey, who’s that guy?” 
“I don’t know,” the fellow fan replied, “but he looks like Dirk [...]

I type with heavy hands and eyes full. I know that this is a sports blog, but I can’t help it. I’m a girl after all. I cry. Forgive me as I break the rules of column writing and wax overtly sentimental.
This wasn’t the season I expected. No, not at all. When October 29th came [...]

When I envisioned the season this year I didn’t envision what has been our fate over the past months. I’m sure that I don’t have to tell you, fellow Jazz devotees, how hard it has been to stay positive regarding the outcome of our season. One great thing about the hard times is that they [...]

I despise a lot of things. Seafood. The Dentist. Driving in the snow. But if there’s one basketball team that I despise it’s the Los Angeles Lakers. I don’t know why they disgust me more than some of the others but it’s just a fact. Maybe I see them as the roadblock to our eventual [...]

You know, the season isn’t really going all that badly. Yes, I know we’re 3rd in the Northwest. Yes, I know that when we play on the road we basically roll over and play dead. Yes, I know that it was supposed to be the magical golden season with sunshine and lollipops and Carlos Boozer [...]

I couldn’t believe it. Listening to the pregame show Monday night I could not fathom one more injury. Milsap? Really? Again? I was at least happy that it was the Pacers we were playing but I was still apprehensive about our ability to play as a team. Was I ever wrong to feel that way! [...]

Monday was my anniversary. My husband and I celebrated eight years of marriage. We sat at local culinary favorite Cucina Toscana (a mere block from ESA in case anyone needs a pre or post game dining suggestion). Time was spent reminiscing over the past eight years while simultaneously trying to inconspicuously keep constant tabs on [...]
