Hollinger Chat at 2pm CST--let's ask him about bag night.

Post #1 » by **paulpressey25** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 5:46 pm

The John Hollinger ESPN chat starts in 75 minutes (2pm cst).

It is at this link:

http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/chatESPN?event_id=19777

I'd encourage all RealGm'ers to ask him this question:

"John, did you see the AP photo of the bag night protesters with Bucks owner Herb Kohl? At what point will Kohl do things right and hire a GM and give him full authority for operations?"

Let's hope one of us get's through.....

Why would Hollinger know anything more than we do?

Does he talk to insider type NBA people?

I thought he was just a stats guy

I would think Chad Ford would have a better insight into the future of our franchise and our GM direction

Ok I sent him a message with the exact text you had in the quotations! Good luck to all with getting this question through!

He probably won't. But tons and tons of fans and NBA league people read that chat......

I'm not really looking for his answer to the GM question, so much as his reaction to bag night.

A robot who watches more basketball than any of us.

But he definitely doesn't have the insider access to team officials that some of the other ESPN guys have.

HE WATCHES BASKETBALL????? i thought he just looked at box scores and used that as a source to his opinions...

He's spending most of the time talking about playoff teams.....at this point I could care less about what those teams are doing....

He only hinted that Toronto probably needs to deal Ford in the offseason....no Ruben comments yet.
