When Sam Presti hijacked the Supersonics to OKC, he not only hijacked the Sonics but stole the Warriors mascot’s name shortly after settling into OKC and renamed the team after our beloved Thunder. It was just one more reason to hate Presti and OKC (Not sure this grudge will ever go away). I questioned why we still had the same lightning writing on our logo last year, but figured they just didn’t have any better ideas. I guess over the last 18 months they worked on creating a new logo, and alas, we finally had the much needed logo overhaul since Thunder is out of the picture. Perhaps they are trying to boost the team back to their glory days, and remind them that they were actually a great franchise at one time and actually did win a championship. I truly love the new uniforms! I’ve always felt that their throwback jerseys were better than their actual jerseys for the past decade, so it was good to see them go back to their roots. If you want to read up on why they chose the design they did, here the full press release.

Woods scores a 66 in the third round of the US Open so what happens next ? And does that mean that porn star Devon James is liable to get a cut of the prize money should he win or place in the top ten ? After all she is claiming that he’s the father of her 9 yr old son.

[…] and Dan Gradzuric (aka. poo poo platter). I see both of these new additions looking good in the new logoed jerseys, and can look forward to them jumping right into Nellie’s doghouse the same way Vlad […]
