Realizar’s Indiana pre-game post

It’s another early 12:30 start at home tomorrow. Anyone here think the Pacers are going to party late into the night tonight? Since I don’t go out clubbing anymore tell me where we should expect Ford & Co. to be seen tonight? (Hold on… AltRaps just told me he already saw them at the Rail…

Rip rips Raptors

..and that’s how a SG fills in for a PG. Pistons 99, Raptors 95 (OT) I was watching the Raptors TV post-game coverage for this one and the usual suspects were ecstatic that the Raptors had come out with an honest effort. Losing the game didn’t seem to matter much and they were more than…

Roll Call – Mar 13 vs Pistons

The “maybe they should have watched Syracuse” edition Banks – I wish for two things every morning when I awake: to roll over and see Eva Mendez lying next to me (sober, awake, and willingly (and I mean her)) and to have a full day without having to see Marcus Banks play basketball. Bargnani –…

Top Ten Prophecies For Next Season

The men and women at the home-office in Athabasca, Alberta are working overtime. The category is Top Ten Prophecies For Next Season. The Raptors will have 4-7 new players and 4-7 new fans. Paper bags will replace jerseys as the best selling merchandise item. MLSE will officially change the meaning of ACC to “Armored Cash…

Rasheed to Drink Bosh’s Milkshake

Y.M.C.A.! This TSN2 debacle has been a blessing in disguise; since we were spared eye sores for many a game. I still curse Rogers and TSN2, but it is followed with a shrug. Misery continued in Philly on Wednesday for the Raptors, but you know what, she likes company, and her name is Detroit. The…

Raps Fan’s 3 Point Shot – March 12/09

Is it me, or does Bosh seem more excited to give a weather report then win games? #boshsucks if you are on twitter (we have to call him out, can’t let him get off scott-free!) If Smitch was still the coach, would the Raptors be in the playoff hunt? (do we even care?) Is it…

Misery continues in Philly

I dunk, you decide. Raptors 106, 76ers 115 They say that the first stage of any torture procedure is the worst because once you become used to the initial pain, whatever follows becomes easier to handle. That’s exactly how I feel about the Raptors. If they had put out the first half effort they did…

Roll Call – Mar 11 vs Sixers

The “what the hell was that” edition Banks – reminds you of your mother-in-law…you hate her, but it was a necessary evil to get what you wanted. Got more floor time than usual tonight, but did nothing of any value. Bargnani – reminds you of that feeling you get when you first see some grass…

Top Ten Colangelo excuses for the season

Faxed in moments ago from the RR home office in Athabasca, Alberta. The category is Top Ten Colangelo excuses for the season. The economy. I gave the extension to one Jose Calderon, not this guy wearing his jersey. Who is he? When I said this is the “best” team I’ve ever assembled, I actually meant…

No Pirates in Philly

Bargnani defending the paint while everyone else watches. They got Cheese Steaks and clean up after our drafting messes, but they don’t have any damn pirates, which the Raptors can be thankful for. I was half wrong about Philly at the start of the year; I pegged them for a 50 win team ahead of…
