A Season of Opposites

This season has not been typical for the Jazz. In fact it basically has been the complete opposite of most Jazz seasons.
Tonight as I sat staring at the final score, this point it home. I could not stop staring at the score. 90-83. I had to keep looking at it to make sure it wasn’t [...]

A Ray of Sunshine

It finally looks like November along the Wasatch front but to Jazz fans, today is a fine fine fine sun shiney day.  24 hours ago the fans in Jazzville were in utter despair.  Hearing the news that their leader on and off the court was returning home to Salt Lake all but put the dagger [...]

I Want An Apology

Why do you play with my emotions? Why do you show up strong for four quarters of basketball on a Thursday night, then quickly become disinterested again a few nights later?
Do you not realize how invested your fans are in you? You have fans in the stands who make sacrifices and spend good money to [...]

A Community of Fans and Friends

When I was a kid being a Jazz fan meant watching the games, reading a recap in the Deseret News or the Salt Lake Tribune, watching highlights on the news and if you were a real Jazz nerd listening to the post game with Dave Blackwell on the radio.
Its hard to remember but there was [...]

Stockton for three… yes! John Stockton sends the Utah Jazz to the NBA Finals!” The shot heard ’round the NBA. It was the first time the Jazz ever made it to the Finals, a turning point for the franchise which led to another championship series appearance and years of NBA Playoff success.
That shot also had [...]

It was the eve of the Jazz Regular Season. I decided to check KJZZ to see if a Jazz special was airing (I really didn’t want to watch the Lakers receive their rings). Much to my surprise there was an hour long special about Jerry Sloan and John Stockton entering the Hall of Fame.
I [...]

The Jazz have cut five players from the squad. These players were Goran Suton, Alexander Johnson, Spencer Nelson, Ronald Dupree, and Paul Harris.  A player that has not been cut yet is Wesley Matthews and here is why.
Its well known that Jerry Sloan doesn’t like three pointers. Jerry prefers the higher percentage in the post [...]

Tonight the Jazz play their first preseason game.  As a fan the season officially begins tonight.  Looking back the 2008-2009 Season was an emotional roller coaster for the Utah Jazz and their fans. The high expectations of the preseason, the devastating injuries to Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer, the joy of a 12 game win [...]

On Saturday night Tifie Humanitarian held a benefit concert at the Tifie Ranch featuring Thurl Bailey.  Before the concert began Thurl was mixing and mingling with the attendees.  I was able to talk to him for awhile about such things as Jerry Sloan’s well deserved induction into the HOF and the upcoming season for the [...]

In light of the induction of John Stockton into The Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame this weekend fans have been made privy to many highlights, articles, and interviews about and from John Stockton. Fans have perhaps seen more of and heard more about Stockton this past week than in his 19 year career as [...]
