The game Saturday night against Seattle was certainly a welcome win. Watching the game from the stands is always more fun than watching it from the couch, even though this game was not in any way close to the level of excitement or skill I saw at the Laker game a couple of weeks ago.
I […]

One of the rules of cyberspace is that me too posts are poor form and unnecessary. I know just about every blog on Jazzbots up here now is about the Lakers, but I just can’t help chiming in. First, I have to agree with JR. Twice actually. 24 MILLION DOLLARS?!?! Does the front office […]

While I certainly enjoyed the Jazz victory over the Pistons on Sunday, the win did make me think about just how good is the team-really. Double-doubles by the dynamic duo, Boozer having a season high game with 36 points, and Williams handing out 14 assists is definitely something to […]

‘Starting for the Jazz…Lucy Harris’
The New Orleans Hornets are next in line to play the Jazz on Friday night. A continuation of the rivalry Williams shares with Paul is somewhat in doubt though, as CP3 sprained his ankle last week. This is the same ankle that kept him out of the line-up last year for […]

The first leg of the nasty road schedule the Jazz face now through Christmas got me to wondering about how the NBA schedule actually gets made. With the help of Google and a few early morning hours to myself, I learned a fair bit about how this happens. And you get your history lesson for […]

Throughout the summer, pre-season, and early going, the main concerns for the Jazz centered on AK’s future and the starting two spot. At least for now, those issues seem to be resolved. Andrei is all smiles and playing as well (or better) than in the 03-04 […]

Air travel hasn’t been a fun experience for a long time now. Since 9/11 it has, in fact, become the opposite. But the airlines are trying to make it better. Delta recently unveiled plans to help keep its customers entertained. With the installation of this seatback system, passengers on U.S. flights of four hours or […]

Having worked in a predominantly male environment the majority of my adult life, I am pretty inured to the way guys sometimes behave, especially when it comes to chatter about the opposite sex. Still, I was a little surprised by Friday morning’s “sports” discussion on KFAN.
Hoping to hear the pundits offer up some consoling words […]

Last year Utah led the league in comeback wins in which they were down by 10 points or more, achieving that nail-biting stat 16 times in the 2006-07 season. And in the final regular season game against Houston last April, Utah almost added to that record, coming back […]

1. Boler and Booner’s pre-game repartee leaves something to be desired. Admittedly, this is not a new discovery, but head shaving discussions? Just grow it back Ron.
2. Contrary to what Thurl thought, it does not look like we will miss Fischer. Williams and Boozer (newly designated team captains) have the leadership thing well in hand.
3. […]
