I hated having night classes (mainly on Wednesdays) when the Clippers played. It's not the same watching it recorded.

Ahhh baby it is good to see these treads again! :)

But yall think you have it hard? I have class 4-7:30 on Wednesdays and then I work straight after until 11 on EVERY SINGLE WEDNESDAY. And no TiVo. :( I think I'm asking for opening night off though...priorities, you know what I'm sayin?!

^man that sucks. all my classes are in the afternoon, at least for this semester. next one.. might be more hectic. =/

DeAndre Jordan coming off the bench against Bynum, possibly? That's an interesting matchup, at least defensively for Jordan. Kinda sucks we don't get to see EG. Ah well, we'll probably be spoiled with Baron already.

That is rough, we have 20 games on Wednesdays this season. What about a VCR? FSN usually has a replay around 11 and KTLA at 2 in the morning :o but they both skip/edit for time constraints.

^ Good lookin out, but replays of games just don't do it for me. I had the same work schedule last season and had to miss a bunch of games then too...don't know what it is with the Clips and Wednesday nights! It all must be a setup for that "Website Wednesdays" ticket promo that Clippers.com had goin' last year...

Aside from those games missed, I am stoked to have a televised preseason game! ...even though it comes courtesy of the lakers, and I'll have to stand Joel Myers for an evening :roll: ..... But I am very excited to see the guys in action, although it'll be in half-speed preseason mode. But its on!!

I probably won't be able to catch the game.

Happy Yom Kippur to all the Jews. Fasting sucks, but I'm battling through it.

It's so ironic how we share the same city, share the same building, yet have to play in Fresno to start it off.

Oh well. I want to see DeAndre Jordan and Mike Taylor in action. I hope Hart doesn't get much time, if any, so we can see what Mike has in him.

Me being on the East Coast the games come on later for me. I'm definitely watching this one tonight. It's just gonna suck during the regular season when I'll have to go to bed early because of early classes. The time slots suck and it's for my major so I have no choice.

I wish Gordon would be healthy enough to play in this game. I guess I'll have to see him another time.
Lets Go Clippers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#2 do you have early classes everyday? 40 of our games are on the weekend (Fri-Sun) so that should help some.

Thomas is getting the start. No word if Camby is going to play or not.

Unfortunately, the old Chris Kaman is back tonight. Can he miss any more easy ones?
