Never forget . He may never get fired. Earned Loomis status already

The story of Joey D, Gayle Benson's horse named after Joe Dumars, who races Thursday at Fair Grounds

quote:

The opening day of racing at the Fair Grounds Race Course will have some notable guests Thursday. New Orleans Saints and Pelicans owner Gayle Benson, team president Dennis Lauscha and other team executives are expected to attend, along with Pelicans director of basketball operations Joe Dumars. They’ll be there to watch the No. 7 horse in the ninth and final race. Joey D, a 2-year-old colt making his first start, is owned by Benson and named after Dumars, who was hired to run the club’s basketball operation in April. “We asked Joe what his nickname was as a player, and he said, ‘Joey D,’” Lauscha said. “So that’s the name we gave him. He (Dumars) loved it.”

That sounds like a Mickey statement if I ever heard one.
Same thing he said/did with the Saints and look where that ended up.

What a shite organization.

I'll try to twist this report:

The NBA thinks they are retarded, so they have been getting nothing but ridiculous low ball offers for any guy worth a shite.

So they put this out as posturing, and will revisit this offseason.

Nobody thinks we are trading player for player(s) to improve our roster

We would makes trades with guys at the peak of their value for draft assets before we lose them for less or for nothing

The ultimate wish cast is to think that the team with the 2nd to worst record in the league is going to magically be a playoff team just because we find a different coach


Speaking of Herb Jones (which I seem to ALWAYS be doing)...IF the Lakers truly want Herb as much as I THINK they do...they will keep their powder dry until draft night in June...and then probably have up to 3 1st round picks they can use to go HEAVY after Herb, including their 2026 pick.

Lakers basically have little to nothing (pick-wise) to go after Herb this trade deadline. Assuming they understand they have NO shot at competing for the cheese this year, they will just move LeBron...find them a solid rim-protecting, alley-ooping "5" to work with Luka...and wait on draft night.

Two or three 1st round picks plus an "expiring" (or maybe even a keeper)...should make the Pels quite happy to move Herb...before he begins to lose value by hanging on to him for too long.

Lol look in the mirror dude. Everyone thinks this org is trash yet anytime someone tries to say anything positive you'll be fast to piss on it.

Just embrace your role on this board as the biggest hater and move along.

An admin attempting to derail a thread because he's a pussy with a personal vendetta is hilarious.

Because I've been a Pels fan since the Hornets moved to NOLA and want the team to succeed.

The funny thing is that you think this is some gotcha.

I'll play through your tears. What have I said that's wrong?

The only way Borrego had a chance to be retained is if him and his coaching staff forced them into keeping him by winning. That's not happening and you can bet that their first coaching hiring decision will not be coming from a guy who was hired by the last regime.

They've already cleared our the front office, the coaching staff is next.

Calling you out for being nothing but miserable on this board isnt pouting broski, its just an acknowledgement of who you are.

I said anytime someone is positive about anything with this team, you are quick to piss on it, which has nothing to do with you with your yeah I want the team to be good statement. You either ignored it or didnt want to acknowledge it.

Again, I dont understand why you're unwilling to embrace your mentality of being miserable with the franchise. I get it. I am too, not to the extent of being miserable 24/7 on this board like you are, but still, I get it.

Nothing, I guess you're agreeing that you piss on any poster that tries to be positive.

Good for you?
