‘The Pistol Pete’s?’
Anytime someone here in New Orleans learns of my diehard allegiance to the Utah Jazz, they respond with the same predictable tripe, “Did you know that you stole our team?” No genius, actually your fair city refused to support its basketball franchise, so they left. Don’t get me wrong, I love New Orleans: [...]

‘For Jerry’
In my last post I talked about some of the endearing qualities of Jazz fans living in Utah.  I talked mostly of the positive traits such as extreme loyalty.
To fulfill my constant need for balance in all things, I need to talk about some of the not so pretty traits of many Jazz fans.  I’m speaking mostly [...]

‘No Love for Joe?’
As the holiday season kicks into full swing, prepare to hear countless messages about love, joy, and peace on Earth. Like any objective writer (stop snickering), I have a duty to provide fair and balanced coverage. Jazz fans need the opportunity to express their rage and anger even as they celebrate and [...]

‘Something for Memphis’
Please stop the torture. I can’t take anymore…I’ll tell you anything, ANYTHING! Just please salvage the season! I’ll do whatever you ask, just please stop the proverbial bleeding…
I’m obviously frustrated. This is not how I pictured or expected the anticipated dream season to start. It’s like we are being punished. What did we [...]

I’m pathetic, I already know this. I start by telling you this so I’m not flooded with comments about how ridiculous I am for what I did last night. Unfortunately, I couldn’t watch the game, but I had my sister McCall hitting me with text updates. Once I heard about the emotional finish, I was [...]

‘Street clothes for Korver’
Kyle Korver underwent another MRI today on his injured right wrist today.  It was confirmed that it is just a sprained right wrist.  He will miss tonight’s game, but is listed as day-to-day for the near future.

‘Shaq: Still feels the Heat’
About once a year a business associate of my husband treats us to first or second row seats. I had the great privilege of watching the game on Monday night in the second row! Thank you Hudson Printing! It was, of course, amazing.
After I stopped crying and giggling- it happens [...]

‘Dantley makes this list too’
Kids like to dream, so I asked my students what their idea of a fantasy night at a Jazz game might look like.  As you will see, these kids have no shame when it comes to creating a fantasy.  Here are a few of their ideas.
My idea of a fantasy night [...]

There are no clear signals, no inside sources.  In all probability there won’t be any signals or inside sources.  When Jerry Sloan does retire – it’s just going to happen.  There won’t be a farewell tour, no rocking chairs, golf clubs, not even a commemorative tractor. There won’t be fanfare or pageantry of any kind.  [...]

‘Love and Support, Memo Style’
I just wanted to give a shout out to all of the mothers, fathers and significant others of the Jazz players AND to all the mothers and fathers and significant others of Jazz player ‘wanna-bes’.
For all of the time spent giving rides to practices, games and camps.  For providing constructive criticism at [...]
