Chat thread - Wizards Midnight Madness

Post #1 » by **pineappleheadindc** » Mon Sep 27, 2010 10:55 pm

I *think* CSN has pre-madness coverage beginning at 10 tonight.

NBATV is supposed to cover it live beginning at midnight.

Assuming above true, consider this a thread to replace chat. Would love to hear from you'all in real time as Midnight Madness signals a new start for our Wiz.

Bonus points if you go in real life and post updates from your mobile.

I'll be back after putting my daughter to sleep and will be watching life and chatting on this thread. See you'all in a few hours.

And of course, though I can't go, I notice this from the Wizards facebook feed:

The first 50 fans to do the John Wall dance for G-Wiz at Midnight Tip-Off will receive 2 Wizards tickets! G-Wiz be walking around the concourse starting at approximately 11:40 tonight.

Last quick post before playing with my daughter.

I'm now following John Wall on his twitter feed: @jimmywa11. Damn, he's an accessible guy. Answers lotsa fan tweets.

Anyone know if you can watch this online anywhere? I don't get NBA TV.

I wonder if the free league pass time includes now? If so, on cable/satellite NBATV is part of it, so I wonder if you can find NBATV steaming from nba.com?

Pine, I'm glad you made the thread. However, threads are not chat. They both serve a different purpose, even if people are making quick comment after comment in a thread, that doesn't make it a chat.

I'm going to write Ted and ask him to host it at Verizon Center next year. Patriot Center isn't a very ideal place to commute to at 12:00 AM in the middle of a weekday. If this was at Verizon Center with the metro running late, I would so be there.

If I wasn't at school, Patriot center would've been perfect for me. It's about a 20 minute drive from my parent's house.

Wizafds twitter feed sez that it is a packed house half an hour before start time.

They did this for us last year. Was annoying more than anything because you could see a scrimmage in the background and they decided to zoom in on players and talk about storylines that all the diehards knew about anyways and diehards are the only people that watch.

Gil looks good. He's running baseline sprints faster than everyone else.

Liverbird · Post #18 » by **Liverbird** » Tue Sep 28, 2010 4:12 am

Gilbert looks to have his quickness back -

Seraphin is RAW on offense - awkward form and pretty poor hands. Hopefully it's nerves

NY1 is really going to enjoy playing with Wall. His jumper looks great!

AMMO looks lost.

DA has completely forgotten that Blatche is on the team.
