| So, it begins Tim Burnett 23:05:48 |
| | The annual SEC NCAA tourney suckfest begins. Alabama leads the way. As a fan of Kentucky, it drives me crazy that the SEC teams can play so hard, and well, against UK, then seem to not really care when the NCAA rolls around...

| MI5 Persecution: BHS Croydon 18/12/98 (2677) Guest 06:48:27 |
| | Evil old bat in BHS 18/12/98
Certainty level: 40%
Not quite sure how sure I am about this one. I went down to Croydon (Surrey) with my mother to buy her a beret. After doing the shopping, we went to the BHS store restaurant to lunch on fish and chips.
You can guess the rest. Auditory hallucinations my shrink calls them, faithfully recorded on Sony minidisc. Some old cow going on about "see that chap, the one over there, something's wrong with him".
It is quite tiring being attacked by random idiots in the street, or as in this case, by some random, evil old bat in a restaurant. Fortunately it is only a sporadic occurrence. My enemies seem of late reluctant to waste resources in my direction. Should I take this as an insult? Am I not worth the millions of taxpayers money which has been wasted on me? Are the obsessives of MI5 themselves the "nutters" and "really mad" which they accuse me of being? Interestingly this suggestion as to the psychological profiles of Security Service personnel has been made by others... it does lead one to wonder, doesn't it?

| NBA Hornets' owner vows successful return to New Orleans Kienna G. 04:12:17 |

Sun October 28, 2007 Shinn vows successful return to New Orleans
Owner George Shinn and the Hornets returned to New Orleans, but will the team stay there? by NATE BILLINGS, THE OKLAHOMAN
The Hornets in New Orleans A look at the team's attendance before Hurricane Katrina forced it to relocate temporarily to Oklahoma City Year Total Avg Rank 2002-03 641,683 15,650 19th 2003-04 587,613 14,332 29th 2004-05 583,070 14,221 30th Source: ESPN.com
By Darnell Mayberry Staff Writer More than two years after Hurricane Katrina wreaked deadly floodwaters on New Orleans, debris-filled houses still litter entire neighborhoods. Many homes in the city's worst-hit areas retain their distinct door-knob-high water lines and neon-orange paint signaling searches for the living.
While many residents have returned to New Orleans, the city's pre-Katrina life has yet to be restored. Ready or not, this is where New Orleans Hornets owner George Shinn soon will learn whether his NBA franchise can stay afloat as his team opens this NBA season Wednesday.
"I really honestly believe that we're going to make a lot of people eat crow for saying it won't work, Shinn said. "We're committed to making this work. I might be apologizing later, saying I was wrong. And if I'm wrong, I'll tell you I'm wrong. But I don't think I'm wrong. I think we can get it done.
Defying doubters is nothing new for Shinn.
Skeptics questioned whether Charlotte was a viable pro market when Shinn's expansion Hornets were born in 1988. They led the NBA in attendance in eight of their first nine seasons. When Katrina forced them to Oklahoma City, the Hornets averaged 18,329 per home game during two seasons that propelled the city atop the NBA's list of relocation or expansion sites.
But this could be Shinn's biggest challenge.
Louisiana is a football-crazed state, and New Orleans was a borderline NBA market before Katrina. The team ranked last and second-to-last in attendance in the two seasons before the hurricane.
Causing more concern, the city lost an estimated 300,000 residents in Katrina's aftermath, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, dropping its metropolitan-area population to about 1 million and making it the nation's smallest market to host two major league franchises.
"One reason I would take a lot of pride in this is because a lot of people here are hurting and suffering, Shinn said. "There are a lot of people here who were born and raised in this community and this area that were devastated by the storm. They just need to be uplifted and they need some help. They need leadership, and I feel like I'm in a position to do that and I'm going to do it.
How he'll succeed is what's lost on most outside observers who are peering into a city with a shortage of major corporate dollars and has financially-strained residents with much more pressing needs than sporting events.
The Hornets have sold slightly more than 6,000 full-season ticket equivalents, about half the total in each of the team's two seasons in Oklahoma City. With the help of the NBA last spring, the team landed national sponsorship deals with Capital One and soft drink company Cadbury Schweppes. But that momentum has slowed, and Hornets Chief Operating Officer Hugh Weber called the corporate sponsorships a "work in progress.
"Nobody thought that we'd come back here and just turn the light switch on and people would sign up, Weber said. "We knew it was going to take a great strategy and a great plan to reengage and reintroduce ourselves to this market, both from a sponsorship level and from a ticketing level.
The Hornets have introduced "A ticket plan for every fan to spur season ticket sales. The team created ticket packages that include 10, 15, 21 and 41 games, with various options for weekend only plans or midweek games against teams that feature the league's biggest stars.
Shinn, meanwhile, is following the same blueprint that made his teams a hit in Oklahoma and North Carolina grassroots efforts that rely on word of mouth promotion, frequent speaking engagements, participating in charitable community events and being available to almost any media outlet.
He calls it preaching the gospel of the Hornets.
"The tougher the challenge, the better and more diligently he steps up to it, said Marilynn Bowler, who served as vice president of public affairs for the Charlotte Hornets throughout the team's days in North Carolina. "He loves a tough fight. Something bubbles up from within George, and he reaches down inside himself and comes up with whatever it takes.
Much of that is fueled by his core belief in his product and people, she said. "His belief in people is what's going to make the team successful in New Orleans.
But Shinn knows his efforts depend on winning.
"We have to control what we can control, and that's just the wins and the losses, said point guard Chris Paul. "That's all we can control as players, and that's what we're going to do.

I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse. I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails. (I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.) I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope. I will post results Saturday.
