Everything is bleak now, but - - -

[Gray Mule]

With Atlanta's losing record for January and all my gloom

and doom, I have to consider some things. Perhaps I can

find a ray of cheer somewhere.

Poor Miami. They are now where we, the Atlanta Hawks,

were for so long. If we feel bad, think how their poor

fans must feel. Look at their season:

Record: 8-32

Lost the last 14 games.

25 games out of first place.

To end up 50-32, they must win all the rest of their games.

Compared to their delima, ours doesn't now look nearly

as bad. Miami still must win 5 to match our 13 wins

of a few years ago.

Hawks, on the other hand:

Record: 17-21

Lost the last 4 games

15 games out of first place (7th in the east)

To end up with a .500 record, Hawks must go 29-25.

54 games to win at least 29.

We have the talent.

We are, for the most part, injury free. (Forget Speedy)

Can we do it? If we can get our December team back,

yes. That was our winning team.

LET'S GO HAWKS!!

Wake up! Make it happen!

Big difference though is that Miami won a CHAMPIONSHIP! The Hawks are rebuilding from a rebuilding project.

Yeah, I feel real bad for those Miami fans.

Yeah... pretty much what he said.

I'd give my left one and perhaps some of my right one for a championship... Instead we haven't made the playoffs in a freaking DECADE... (that's a streak that is equivalent to almost 25% of our entire franchises history BTW)

I'd trade franchises with them in a nano-heartbeat.
