Ha, what a got. Resorting to smack-talking about other towns when his team can't defend itself.
Sounds like we're under someone's skin.
Remember the Alamo: Phoenix Suns look to Rise from the Ashes in Season Opener
by Phoenix Stan
Throughout history fans and nationalists alike have rallied around the symbols of their greatest defeats. Wounded Knee. Pearl Harbor. The last hundred years of Cubs baseball. And just ask a Serb about Kosovo Polje.
But in what must be one history's greatest ironies, both Suns fans and Texans rally to the same Alamo cries. Both suffered tremendous defeats on virtually the same ground.
In the case of the Texans that defeat eventually lead to independence and the formation of the Republic of Texas. History has yet to reveal if the Phoenix Suns will rise from the same ashes to achieve similar glory.
However brilliantly scheduled by the NBA, returning the Suns to San Antonio for the season opener is still a meaningless game.
No team has even shown a greater ability to pace itself through the long season than the Spurs. And no Sun should think twice about the outcome of this first game. Even if the Suns sweep the season series by a combined point total of +100 it won't matter at all. Until the Suns win four games against the Spurs in April or May we are their door mat.
Enjoy the start of the season.
Enjoy the hype that will come with this game.
Even try and enjoy the 37.000 inevitable replays of Tim Duncan's improbable and amazing three pointer.
Embrace the pain the Spurs symbolize for all Suns fans and hope for a victory. But don't forget that this game doesn't count for anything more then the first of many wins and loses that both teams will rack up this season.
The road to redemption begins and will hopefully end in San Antonio (a crappy little hole of a town with a fake river and over priced restaurants as its main attraction) next spring.
Remember the Alamo!
And burn the mother f*#ker down!

That article might have been semi-worthwhile in 2006.
But when the stars come out enough nights, you come to realize that some things are inevitable.
Actually, that was pretty funny. And he didn't about the suspensions.
Ahh, the ravings of the jealous and envious.![]()
I make it a daily ritual to watch that video at least once. No matter how I may feel that day, watching Tim drain that three will bring a smile to my face.

ducks, would you please fix this? It's too confusing. Thanks, bye.
Can't wait to see this game in person..
phoenix should adapt a new nick for Duncan like... Tim The Nemesis Duncan.

At least San Antonio has an actual water supply. If anyone upstream on the Colorado River ever shut off the water valve Phoenix would dry up in a couple of weeks.
Remind me what Phoenix's main attraction is again?
I like how this guy's emotion finally gets the best of him at the end, he should post in here!![]()
^How do you know he's not a poster already?
This may actually be the greatest benefit of Duncan's three pointer. With Horry gone I doubt the suspensions would have come up much more anyways, but Tim's shot gave everyone a fresh highlight to obsess on.
A day late and a dollar short.
This game's gonna be awesome.
I can't wait...too bad it's on ESPN instead of TNT.
Shaq's gonna put Pop in his place![]()
The Colorado River is an actual water supply.
Phoenix's main attraction is the year-long warm weather and the desert terrain.
The last guys to burn the Alamo down lost half their nation and never did recover.
Hahah, that's pretty good.
Duncon Travelled !
The Suns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
was a really a good article until he had to rubbed salt into the city town, this clown
