Getting Together Can Be Fun (Vs. Lakers game)

by LatinD on Dec 23, 2010 10:30 PM CST

So I'm going back to San Antonio. I'm arriving on Dec 27th, and staying for two weeks. Being obsessed as I am, I decided to go watch the two home games in that stretch, Vs. Lakers and Vs. OKC. The last time I was there Wayne organized a get-together for PTR regulars, and I must say it was fun. Dale probably can't go to another one in January, so he wasn't up to organizing it, but I thought I'd ask.

Anyone wants to meet before the game on Tuesday Dec 28th? I can't offer tickets, and they're pretty expensive (and almost sold out) so it might not be a great game for it, but it is what it is. If we reach some sort of undefined critical mass, we can have fun talking about the Spurs and getting to know each other.

What do you guys think?

Hah. Well, Wayne’s not going. This is going to be a very intimate G2G. In any case, if anyone’s interested, just e-mail me.

Manuwar’s going on the 7th and he wants to set up a basketball game between PTRers. He’s supposedly an awesome player. He claims that, at least.

Bah! I’m going to the game on the 26th. I’d love to ball against some PtRs though. I’m not an awesome player. My game is a somewhat odd mix of Matt Bonner and Charles Oakley. Take that for what you will, and be glad I won’t be there so everyone else will be leaving in one piece.

Bonner with the nice box out!

Bleh. I am here now leaving tonight (Christmas Eve) and I won’t be back until February. Your timing of trips is awful for my schedule. I hope you have a great time!

The 7th is when we should have a PtR get together. They have a game that night at Indiana and we could all watch the game at a bar somewhere and come up with PtR cheers.

Definitely. We two are meeting, at any rate.

A get together on the 7th would be fun. It’s a Friday night so no interfering children’s activities. I won’t play basketball though (I used to shoot free throws underhanded :-)). Set a place and time.

Hey, there’s nothing wrong with that. Rick Barry used to shoot free throws underhanded.

I did a lot of soul searching. I didn't find anything.

Damn, would’ve wanted to play ball and show my very Asian game — all outside shooting and no inside game. In any case, enjoy the trip, LD.

Unfortunately, I will be out of town for most of the 28th.

I am on vacation until the 3rd so maybe I can meet up with you some other time? Not sure what the 7th holds for me.

I’ll be in Spring Branch tonight, just northwest of you. You’re all welcome to come over, though, and watch the game—we’re having chili for dinner, and you could talk about how disgusting Tex-Mex is. :)

(It’s good to have you back in the States—I know you’re having a wonderful time, so I won’t even tell you I hope you’re having one! )

I have flying monkeys at my disposal, and I'm not afraid to use them.
