The Keep Parker In San Antonio Campaign

[whottt]

Solid D, Nikos, MB, Segu and 3 guests I see you in this thread...get your asses on the phone and pester Holt. It can't hurt.

[SpursWoman]

LOL I am on the phone with Holt Cat right now, they put me on hold. The receptionist was like WTF? But she said she'll get him the message.

There is a woman answering the phone right now @11:30 at night...if you want Parker signed, call that number boutons(in a rare moment of usefulness) posted.

I'm on hold.

[Das Texan]

might as well have a few beers while on hold.

[MI21]

Maybe I can go smash the Cat truck thingo's just down the road. I wonder if Holt would hear about some damage to some Cat stuff all the way in Australia

[whottt]

good job guys

[whottt]

Damn too bad we can't figure out a way to get all the international posters to call...that might really drive the point home.

Nice touch, Whottt. Holt, for all his faults, always seems to listen to the fans at critical moments in the franchise's history.

Unless you are a spineless Canadien (WaltonBuysOffMe), you must do your part. If you are not on our side, you are against us and not a Spurs fan.

If Holt doesn't sign TP now....he is making sure TD and the Spurs don't become a dynasty.

The league has told Holt to let TP go......the leagues best interest is to NOT let the spurs become a dynasty...............read between the lines.

Give me a break.

Holt: "Hey David, DS, my main squeeze. Should I give Tony Parker a few million more than I've been offering him?"

Stern: "Holt Cat, Jesus, Big P, lay off the booze a sec. If you sign Parker, the Spurs might be an interesting team and they might start winning. We could never have a team based on fundamentals win championships. I order you to do everything possible to make sure he doesn't sign with you."

Holt: "But DS, my man, won't Parker get a fat contract in some other NBA backwater instead?"

Stern: "Why have an exciting young player on a good, winning team when he can sign a long-term deal and get hidden away in Atlanta? Put him on the crappiest team in the league. They might make the playoffs in five years. Just you wait and see. In five years, man, Parker is going to be the most popular player in Georgia."

Holt: "Georgia? But nobody cares about that team."

Stern: "It's all about the Benjamins, Pete. It's all about the Benjamins."

Holt: "Oh, O.K. I'll go tell Pop to extend Rasho and Beno instead. They aren't very popular."

Flash, this is all about Holt.

I made my call. I don't know if it'll help but I did it.....

GO SPURS!!!!

[coz]

If it is OK with you LJ, I may forward that letter (plus a few thoughts of my own) to Holt and demand the same thing. It is obscene how well the Spurs do in this market, and how poorly we are backed by ownership. Time for Holt to pay up, or I'll just enjoy my Spurs from my living room this season.

[timvp]

We Won.

[whottt]

Now quick, every one call and say you will cancel your season tickets if the Spurs retire AJ's jersey.

TimVP, you start.

[SequSpur]

What's the phone number?

[GoSpurs21]

TIMVP,
The Spurs will not give a season refund for tickets that are already paid for. I bought some 5 game packs last year for friends and the tickets ended up being in the middle of the row not in the isle the sales woman told me. The Spurs would only try to find me similar seats in same or more expensive sections.

I did however call Spurs today and told them I would be giving up my seats NEXT season if the Spurs did not resign Tony. They thanked me for my concern and said they would pass the message to season ticket and public relations departments.

[timvp]

Yeah, I never thought I'd be getting my money back

I actually wouldn't have wanted my money back. It was just my small way of letting the Spurs know that not all fans are brainless peons who would follow whatever Holt says.

[timvp]

An article came out today in the San Antonio newspaper in which fans were asking to be reimbursed for their season tickets because they were afraid I might leave the team as early as next year! Everyone was behind me.

Who said this wouldn't work?
