A short and sweet farewell from one of our faves. I hope we'll see him once again in the Silver & Black.

Such a class act. I really hoped he’s bought out and returns to the Spurs.

I think he'll be back

And I definitely hope comes back.

Just because I think it’s worth saying over and over. Bruce will be back. Memo to Bucks: please return Bruce!

Oh chit, you’re right. Thanks for the reminder rik. But… I’m still holding out hope that Fab will be back. Just kidding.

Just hold onto it for now, you’ll likely save yourself from some work if you do.

Thanks SiMA. By the way, why are you in the FanShots section again? All the action are in ATS’ post!

I can assure you, if the Overlord hadn’t posted this Shot on the main page, I likely would never have noticed it. My campaign to ban FanShots continues.

Great role model. I wish him the best.

this goes from great trade to awesome trade.

Bruce needs his number retired

Bruce bowen deservers to have his number retired. without burce we wouldnt even have the 3 championships. He came in every night and did his job. He is underatted at times cause of the big three. IN realty its the big four. Who could of shut down the likes of kobe,lebron,nash, and many others we faced in the playoffs.GO Bruce GO.

Oh, I’m not worried. I know he’ll be back.

Don’t even pack your bags Bruce. Look for number 12 either on Bruce’ back, or in the rafters. Great points Manu-20. Four guys were together for those 3 Championships, and I think a lot of people outside of SA tend to forget that.

Here’s the question I have: Who the hell put a post by a woman, bellasa no less, on the front page? Have we no modicum of decency around here? No standards of excellence? No knowledge of our limits?

We specialize in misinformation around here. Facts and stats just get in the way.

Thanks, Speedo. Don’t you worry your pretty little head though. Bella would never make it up here to me.

Thanks, Cap. That’s awfully sweet of you.

Speaking of sweet, have you ever taken about 12 packages of Oreos and adhered them to a vehicle in the middle of the night? It’s tons of fun!

Sima's totally right,

no one ever looks at or reads the Fanshots.

Well now I’m all confused. The quote says 2/3 66% but the poster says 70%. Time to google.

Answer is 70%. The picture of SiMA and the 3 lovely ladies he has with him is correct.

count me IN.

my bruce is a photo of him “hounding” charmin-soft ray allen.

reading his blog post was enough to make my lips tremble and my eyelids fill with water. love LOVE this guy. he is not just one of my favorite spurs, but one of my favorite people. i still consume large quantities of water everyday from a now tattered taco cabana cup with bruce’s picture. my heart-break last year was over my PtR namesake (Brent Barry) leaving town. i guess its just a sign of the times/my age.

we should also remember fab here too. though not as near and dear as bruce, he was a positive contributor and pretty crafty for a guy who couldnt jump more then 2-3 inches off the ground. he is a basketball role model for me for that very reason. actually, bruce and fab are the two role models for my game these days….i suppose that’s more of a comment on my skills than anything else……..
