Any Spurs fans in Dallas/Fort Worth

[aaron-berain]

This is my first post here on Spurs talk. I browse this site quite a bit though. Anyone in the DFW area a Spurs fan? My wife and I are looking to meet people who are true fans to hang with. I can't seem to make any friends up here. I wonder why? Could it be they’re all mAVS creeps? :spin

[Kori Ellis]

Welcome to the forum.

I believe quite a few posters here live in Dallas.

Hopefully they chime in and you all can get together and watch games.

[leemajors]

i think Obstructed View is in that area from his rants about mav radio.

[Sec24Row7]

Wow... I thought driving up I-35 was like free diving...

the farther you go... the less brain function you have.

Good to see it's not always true!

:fro

[Hatfield]

I'm in Dallas right now, but I'm moving to Seattle in three weeks. However, you should have no problem finding Spurs fans in Dallas....

Gotta love how the sport talk shows up here have cooled down over the past week about the Mavs.....it's greatness.

[aaron-berain]

ESPN radio is the main culprit here in DFW (aka mavs radio). It’s funny how delusional they sound. You’d think they’ve won the championship already.. :smokin

also watching local games up here is annoying also having to listen to D harper go on with his ridiculous predictions

I live in Fort Worthless (not by choice) and I'm a HUGE Spurs fan. Welcome to the forum.http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a185/valluco/mexican.gif

How long have you been in FW?

[aaron-berain]

About 4 years, moved up here because of my wife. I'm from San Antonio but lived everywhere....

[implacable44]

there is a group of us in north richland hills

[valluco]

I'm from the Valley. I moved up here 3 yrs ago to be with my two daughters.

[valluco]

So, who's up for a DFW Spurs fans GTG?

[frequency]

ive been to champps in addison to watch a cpl of games
its hard sometimes to find a place that has the game on

[50 cent]

I live in Uptown Dallas. I would be down for a GTG sometime. I was at a bar last week for the game with 20 people and I was the only Spurs fan in there, but I kinda enjoy that for some reason.

Where do all of you live?

[Obstructed_View]

Yep, I'm up here. I don't get out much but I'd definitely find a way to go to a GTG once in a while. It'd be nice to remember what beer tastes like.

Sure, as long as his mom can drive him there.

We have a clan of Spurs fanatics here in Mansfield (just southeast of Fort Worth). We watch every game via the NBA ticket and we have actually successfully converted 3 DFW natives to become Spurs fans over the past 3 years. Something to be said about playing the right way.

Dude, I was at a Wingstop for game 6 of the WCF(no cable at the time) in 03 and I was the only person there wearing the old #50 jersey and a big smile. It's funny how people were talking shit to me and then Kerr silenced the room with those 3's. Fucking priceless.

I'm in Plano... well on the weekends anyway :lol Travel a lot for work.

[CubanMustGo]

I live in McKinney, the right upper armpit of the metroplex. They love it when I wear the Spurs gear around here.

I hear ya. I'm in Frisco and I do enjoy the stares I get from sporting my Spurs gear.

[aaron-berain]

So its offical, the DFW Spurs fanatics, we need a headquarters. Its time we represent. Everyone's welcomed to join. Who wants to suggest a place to GTG? BTW I live near Mansfield also.. But for the Spurs I'll go anywhere. Like the Spurs vs the fakers game on friday. Got my tickets..... :king

[G-Nob]

I'm off of McKinney Ave. And a good place in the McKinney Ave. Tavern which was a good place for a spurs gtg for game seven. Can we make this the usual gtg location?

[aaron-berain]

I'm up to anything G-nob... Who else agrees to McKinney Ave. Tavern? Anyone? :spin

Where is that by the way. I'm not familiar with it.

Dude, I live right by the MAT and go there all the time. I was in SA for game #7 last year in the Finals or I would have been there. Do you live in an apt in Uptown?

[frequency]

thats not too far from me
id be down for that

[Spurminator]

The MAT's a good place. I've never been there on a Friday thouigh so I don't know how crowded it gets...

i was wondering what happened to that guy

[G-Nob]

We can meet up at the MAT on game nights but I don't know if they'd give us some TV priority over the Mavs. I guess a majority of the people in there would get mad if we changed the channel. I don't know if they even have NBA League Pass.

The "MAT" as its called is located on McKinney Ave just down the street from the Hard Rock Cafe. Not sure what the cross street is but the address is:

2822 McKinney Ave; Dallas TX

An important point. Whatever spot is chosen, it must have NBA League Pass.

It's amazing how many people seem to make there living in the DFW area instead of SA, but are bad mouthing it. Why can't you get a job in that business metropolis of SA if it's so great? :lol

I'm not talking about bad mouthing SA, but people making snide remarks about the DFW area. Apparently they depend on making a living there instead of their beloved River Walk City.
Don't like DFW take 35 south!

The snide remarks are directed at morons like you in the DFW area. If you guys left, it'd be a better place to live.

Probably because Dallas is essentially the Silicon Valley of the central United States. :/

themselves and arrogant. Don't get me wrong, the Metroplex has more good folks than assholes (my best friend is from Arlington) but the assholes that do reside here are some of the biggest assholes that I have ever met. Just my opinion.

Oh yeah, I'm definately down with catching a game at the MAT on April 7 if I'm not in SA for the game. Go Spurs.

I hate Derek Harper and the lady he does the pre/post game with. Even as a mavs fan I can barely watch the postgame show, the stupid bitch laughs uncontrollably at the dumbest things.

the one i can't stand is that old fart on FSN during the mavs games. yeah i watch the mavs, but bleed silver and black. keep your friends close, your enemies closer is my motto. anyway, that old fart is just about as bad as sean elliott. no offense guys. you guys in SA should hear this idiot. anyway, i'm down for a GTG. hopefully that place isn't a "stuffy" kinda joint. i've always tried to find a hangout for spurs games, but theyre filled with nothing but blue and green. i remember in '03 for game 6 i was at Pappa's pizza in addison and i was such an ass. oh well, they deserved it. i'm game. we should have mavsfan1000 be our waitress that night.

[aaron-berain]

If were all going to meet at the MAT shouldn't someone ask if they're going to pee on us if we want to watch a Spurs Game. BTW I never said DFW was a bad place to live or I didn't like living here. Its just mAVS fans are oblivious, they inflate every win or loss.

[j-6]

There is absolutely no market for what I do for a living in San Antonio. None. Besides, I enjoy living here in DFW a lot more than SA.

[Obstructed_View]

island_dude probably isn't old enough to have a job, so there's not too much point in getting tooo annoyed at him.

The only moron I see here is you. You're the one who makes posts referring to male sodomy, so maybe it'd be alot better place if you left.

Let's just say I'm old enough to remember when The San Antonio Spurs were the Dallas Chapparals in the old ABA.

By the way I've been working in my occupation for 25 years, that's probably before you were in diapers punk!

Dude, I love Dallas as a city and wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I fucking hate the Mavs though and all their dumbass fans.

yeah she annoys me to no end

i could meet depending on what game
just post up and LMK
so how old is everyone here anyways?

[50 cent]

Okay, the MAT (McKinney Avenue Tavern) is located at the corner of Allen and McKinney Ave. across from Christie's Sports Bar and right next to the Post Worthington Apartments.

I know the bartenders there. They do in fact have League Pass. However, if the Mavs are playing at the same time as the Spurs, the place is going to be packed and the Mavs are going to be on the majority of the TVs with sound pumping into the whole place.

We need to pick a night when the Spurs play and the Mavs don't and we can have free reign on the place with sound.

Also, I can't do it tomorrow (Lakers) because I am flying to SA for the game. I think a weekday GTG would be better because the MAT wouldn't be as crowded.

Are you referring to Bob Ortegal? If so, I know what you mean. The mavs can do no wrong in that guy's opinion.

Bob Ortegal knows alot about basketball, he played and coached. He knows just about every rulet that most people didn't know existed. He will sometime point out the obvious a little to much, or go off topic and talk about a kid having a ball in front row.

Then aren't you too old to be trolling on another team's website? That's pretty pathetic.

Glad you've stayed gainfully employed. Somebody has to mop the floors... :lol
