How long have you been a Warriors fan?
My entire life. Hanging on the wall above my desk is a RUN-TMC poster I’ve had since my childhood. In the poster, Tim, Mitch, and Chris are leaning against an Impala, and wearing three of the ugliest sweaters in the history of clothing.
Fav. current Warrior? Why?
Stephen Jackson. Sure, he’s prone to take bad shots and make bad passes, but he’s given the Warriors a toughness they haven’t had since Byron Houston. Even better, unlike Byron Houston, Captain Jack is not a registered sex offender.
{Editor’s Note: Guess this makes Stack Jack his fav. former Warrior}
Fav. all time Warrior? Why?
Sarunas Marciulionis. The guy was just fearless. As a young dude, Sarunas was the player I emulated whenever I played Nerf basketball in my room. This may explain why I was always injured, just like my idol, Sarunas.
Fav. moment?
Obviously, the W’s upset of the Mav’s in the 2007 playoffs was unforgettable. As was Sleepy Floyd’s epic game against the Lakers in the ’87 playoffs. However, I’ve got to say that one of my favorite moments as a W’s fan was seeing P.J. Caresimo at the movies just a few days after the incident with Spree. I got in line to get my popcorn fix, and there he was standing right in front of me in line. I moved closer and strained to get a good look at his newly famous throat. Sure enough, he still had noticeable strangulation bruises around his neck. That was a Great Time Out!
Worst moment as a Warriors fan?
The Mike Dunleavy Jr. contact extension.
What’s your feelings on the current Ownership/Management of the Warriors?
I would be thrilled if the current ownership/management of the Warriors retired/resigned/sold/disappeared/moved to Bermuda, etc.
You’re named Warriors GM, How would you improve the team? What changes do you think need to be made?
I’d work to balance out the roster, meaning I’d acquire players who actually attempted to play defense, and were taller than 6’5”. Also, I’d hire a private investigator to get some dirt on Chris Cohan, so I could blackmail him into selling the team. Finally, I’d ditch our hideous uniforms, and replace them with the throwback ones that everyone loves.
You can bring any current NBA player to the Warriors, who would it be?
Kevin Durant. I think he’s on the verge of becoming even more unstoppable than Kobe or Lebron.
Finish the sentence, When the warriors win the championship, I will…..?
Cry, loot, and leave belligerent voicemail messages for all my friends who are Laker fans.
Do you Visit Warriorsworld.net?
For sure. As a W’s fan living in exile out in NYC, I rely on Warriorsworld.net to keep me posted on the latest W’s news.
