Hornets Hype

grassroots growing strong

The Only Stat That Matters.

By mW on February 6, 2009

Whose face is on the ticket.

Those of you who visited our site last year may remember that we inexplicably decided to keep track of which person’s head was on the season ticket to evaluate how the cosmic strings came together and caused a win or loss.  Well, ladies and gentlemen, get excited.  HornetsHype, via this half-statistical analysis half-divination, has determined that the Hornets will win tonight!  Not only was David West’s head 5-0 in the regular season last year, and 2-0 in the playoffs, but it is 4-0 this year.  It’s like money in the bank.  What about our injuries you say?  Pshaw.

Haven’t you heard, Calderon’s having trouble with his hamstring and Bosh with his knee?  It’s destiny.  Somewhere, somehow, the cosmic scales had to be balanced.   Some players heads on a ticket might not mean much, but David’s?  It’s like having Kobe, Wade, and Howard traded to your team for a day.  Karmically, that is.

So, while the Raptors are TT6’s and I’s adopted Eastern Conference team, and we feel for our Northern compatriots (were they invited to the ledge?), we gotta root against them.  Only we don’t really have to.

The outcome is already written.

  1. Hahha, if you had written this post last year, I would’ve laughed. Scoffed. Huffawed even. Now, I am instilled with a crazy amount of confidence… no way we’re losing tonight!

  2. Apparently no one told the Raptors. Which is sad. To take their valiant effort and have fate throw it against the metaphorical rocks on the shore is just mean. But it was written. The Bees had to win. And they did. Awesome.

  3. Matt - Storm Surge says:

    Did tt6 straighten her hair? I filled my zippo…

  4. This was one night karma had all covered.

  5. atthehive, you laugh about the ticket stat. But Mo Pete was the ONLY Hornet with a losing record on the ticket last season. And he was on the ticket for Game 7.

    COINCIDENCE?

    Hornets organization really dropped the ball there. You GOTTA do your research!

  6. DWest is truly an allstar…

  7. I’m gonna put David West’s half face on all my tickets!

  8. WOW, ticktock!!! I just might start believing in karma.

    Now…what does it say about Tyson’s face?

    And don’t forget it’s an earlier game on Sunday, folks!
