Are you serious, “UNC Charlotte” players and not a mention of a single one.
Next see this picture, I think there are 3 Charlotte players in this picture, Wilderness Phil Jones and Barnett (who is a Charlotte native)
Yet, here is the blurb…
[SIZE=2][I]K.C. Rivers of Clemson roars down the court Wednesday during a summer pro-am league basketball game at the Grady Cole Center. The league – which features street players as well as professionals and college athletes – is so tough that on this night, Rivers’ team lost.[/I] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]HIS TEAM LOST TO A D1 TEAM. A D1 TEAM HIS OWN D1 TEAM LOST TO AT HOME THIS PAST SEASON.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Our local paper has no idea there is a school 15 min NE of downtown.[/SIZE]

[QUOTE=gk49;331406]I’m sure jfickett can tell you all why you’re wrong and the why Observer is right.[/QUOTE] My apologies gk49 ! It’s too dang hot for another 5 pages of “harlequin” novel.
From $75 to $4.25… man, that is ROUGH! I’d consider buying if I thought they were viable, but with idiotic decisions like this, and the constant slaps in the face to the home team it’s pretty clear the management has no desire to right the ship.
They seem to be way off course and heading for an iceberg. I think I’ll stay away from this stock. I would do the same if it was a part of my 401k as well… Jesus, what is Persinger going to retire on, peanuts?

[semihijack]fwiw, i work for them and could even get in for less using an employee stock purchase plan, and won’t. maybe if it gets down to $2… shrug [/semihijack]
seriously though… that picture and all the players and not a single player mentioned? thats pretty crappy. anyone know the day/page/section? i’ll try and talk to the sports guy next time he’s in raleigh (our sports departments semi-merged).
So, what PERCEPTION does this give the average basketball fan living in Charlotte of us?
This has always been my complaint. Yes, we get coverage, but the overall perception of us generated by the Observer has always been less than it should be… MUCH LESS.
