coachx Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Just wondering how many people here plan on going to the season opener. Hope it is a sale out and the crowd helps energize our guys to a big win to start the REAL SEASON off right ! Can't wait !! Want to see if Smith and Horford can, together, wear down Dirk. Their best perimeter defender, Howard, is suspended so we should expect a big game from our wings. Can Law handle the speed of one of the quickest PGs in league ?

DJ_Money Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Everyone, except Speedy. (But, seriously, though...I'll be there.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachx Posted October 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 If alot of Squawkers are going to the opener we should have a little meet and greet before the game in celebration of the beginning of a franchise turn around. I know time is hard to find....it does not have to be a 1 hour happy hour get together, just a little meet up in the CNN Center or out in the main concourse of Phillips. Game is a week from Friday at 7:30. Plenty of time to decide to support our BOYS ! Who's in ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnakinJoe Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I'll be there in my old red & black Hawks gear. Hoping Santa delivers some new gear with the new colors on Christmas morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traceman Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 red, black and gold Hawks' gear at the end of the season last year while conveniently failing to mention that they were going to change colors for this season. I bought a gold J Smoove jersey (with matching hat), a red Marvin jersey, a practice jersey and some shorts at the Team Gear store late last season thinking that I would be ready for this year. Had I known they were going to change colors, I damn sure wouldn't have spent all that money! That said, the new jerseys look GREAT and I will be springing for one soon. I wish I could trade all that old stuff back in and get me a brand new Horford 15 or Law 4 in white. Gotta show the rookies some love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNorthCydeRises Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I'll be there, but I haven't bought my ticket yet. I think I'll do it tonight online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BossTweed Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I should be there. I like the idea of meeting up before the game in the CNN center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gutz Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 I will also be there pouring some cold beers down and getting fired up for this game. Can't wait to see this team in real action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachx Posted October 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 Awsome, I was expecting like 2 posters to admit their going this early on. Looks like there is a good sized crew fired up already. I can relate. Going to Jacksonville this weekend but I'm honestly almost just as fired up for the Hawks season opener. I can't believe I just put that in writing. How about a meet and greet at the CNN Center for the Squawkers ? My buddy and I normally get a drink and some food there before the game any way. The beer and cokes are cheaper there then in Phillips and tables are usually pretty abundent on the food court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BusBoyIsBack Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 I'll be there! Will be my first Hawks game since watching Jordan on the Wizards. So I've never seen any of the young guys like Josh Smith in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachx Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 If any one sees a couple of clean shaved, clean cut, white guys, with brown / blonde hair, having a couple of beers in the CNN Center before the game , come join us ! We are both about 5'10''. (Hey I can't help it we don't have 3 foot long pony tail, afro, or ZZ Top beard to make us stand out.) Don't know what my buddy will be wearing...business casual........both of us coming right from work. I got on a casual red / brown, plad, buttom up shirt, with kaki pants and brown shoes. Go Hawks !

Iman Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Guess the easiest way to spot me and my cousin is he often wears a black beret. We usually can be spotted grabbing a hotdog in the arena about 15-30 mins before gametime. If we get there too early we usually go up to the bar that overlooks the arena and grab a sandwich and beer.
