My name is DTM and i'm a SPURS fan
whats up PTR! I've been a spurs fan since they drafted the admiral, so coming up short in the playoffs like the spurs have the past 2 years is nothing new for me, but after winning 'ships as often as they have lately, you want your team to get back to that position asap, especially knowing that your franchise player that's responsible for it isn't getting any younger.
strangely, i've just stumbled upon this board. but i've been reading a few posts for about a week now and I like the MATURITY in here, similar to 48moh, which is why I plan to keep coming back.
anyway, i'm hype about the summer league because i'm hoping these young guys step up this year and play their part to get us back to where we expect our team to be, contending for another championship!
a little about me, live in NY, born in 76, married, father of a 2yr old and a 2month old.
huuuuuuuge diehard fan of the mets/SPURS/bears.
thanks for having me.

Going through the archives and catching up, eh? DTM, you’re not just a Spurs fan, you’re turning into a full-fledged PtR’er!
But chances are that davis will never see your comment in this almost two-week old thread. I’m curious to find out if anyone but me compulsively checks for any and every new post.

yes it has.. especially because the last 2 years, other contenders, even other teams who are now contenders have gotten better/younger/athletic, while we banked on experience. well the experience was there, but our team health was not.

Denison Witmer is the linked video. That is a good song but Los Angeles, Steven, and Around Everything are amazing. No youtube videos for the others. They are really good if you like that acoustic sound. They are all on the Safe Away album which is miles better than anything else he has done.

Well, it’s generally around 30, but there’s this guy named ATS who carries the high end of the spectrum. Without his age, we’d average around 17. He’s our Kurbertowen.
