I don't need them to be super serious or analytical, but Alex was too far on the other end, just terrible and/or sensationalist takes when he's on the mic. I do really enjoy his books tho.
I'll definitely support and tune into their new show to start.
I’m about to finish up pre historic. It has been a great and eye opening read.
coles notes?
- John Bitove Jr beat out Larry T for the franchise.
- They had to sell something like 12,500 season tickets before they could officially have the franchise, which they did. Vancouver on the other hand really struggled to hit that quota.
- The rules for expansion teams really hampered their ability to start off on the right foot, including a lower salary cap than the rest of the teams in the league.
- Players loved the food scene here, even back then.
- The SkyDome was terrible to play in. It was cold, and the size of it threw players off their game, especially shooters.
- The 90s was the golden age of team logos.
- Samuel L Jackson was filming a movie here during our first season and came to a lot of games.
- Isaiah Thomas wanted to tank but our head coach Brendan Malone wanted to win. This caused a lot of friction internally. Malone would play Stoudamire 40 mpg regularly.
- Leo Rautins was nice before the injuries.
- We lost. A lot.
