State dollars eyed to help lure Saints

[j-6]

Your city? I take it you don't live here.

Which pretty much explains why the only people trying to make SA look bad are the ones who don't live here.

Wow, there's your series of numbers MB.

No, I don't. But I did spend about $700 coming down there to go watch the Saints play and gave up a pair of Cowboys tickets in the process to support SA's efforts in getting a team. After all, my tax dollars helped pay for that Dome back in the early 90's.

You should be thanking me for getting off my ass and flying down to support your favorite city's quest for NFL inclusion instead of stat- ing yourself into oblivion.

instead of stat- ing yourself into oblivion.

Well Marcus has to make a living one way or another.

Now I get what all these "projects" are.

[TheWriter]

I didn't know ideas = pictures.

[Marcus Bryant]

Let's see, you have an idea and you take a picture.

Or you pretend you had that idea while you post another's pic.

Yeah, again, whatever makes you sleep at night.

[Marcus Bryant]

Images can be plagarized. I don't know why this is hard for you to grasp. Then again, you were caught doing that redhanded.

Jesus, even when your dead wrong you can't admit it.

I posted them without premissiona and claimed them as my own. It's called stealing, and I explained myself to Slomo and he was fine with it afterwards when he understood.

So I can give a what you think.

[Marcus Bryant]

Citing work as your own ("without permission") as you say, is indeed, plagiarism.

You claimed that you yourself took those pictures. It wasn't a case of you claiming 'hey, here's some pics I found online'. The latter can be cons uted as "stealing". The former, plagiarism.

[TheWriter]

Come on, I told you to get a new word of the day calendar. Call me a pirate, call me a thief, something other than an incorrect term for claiming pictures that were not mine.

[Marcus Bryant]

You do understand why photographs are copyrighted, right?

If you pass off a photograph as your own, that is plagiarism.

Plagiarism is of the written word. You call me hard headed?

[Marcus Bryant]

Here you go, since you clearly need a little help...

"Thus, for example, plagiarism can include copying language or ideas from another novelist, basing a new song in large part on another's musical composition, or copying another artist's drawing or photograph."

You guys need to stop beating around the bush and just come out and say you don't think a predominately Mexican society can afford an NFL team. Maybe you think we're uneducated and there's no future here. Don't be panzy asses and just come out and say how you feel.

We have the best team in the NBA with no sign of slowing down there and aren't within 5000 seats per game of selling out a 17,797 seat stadium.

And yet you think people are getting racial about questioning where all the long term support is going to come from the same demographic when asked to fill out a 65,000 seat stadium?

Wake the up and quit playing the ignorant race card.

Huh now?

The Spurs in the SBC Center (3 seasons) have an average of 98% capacity.

Last season they had a 99% capacity with 18,316 a game in a 18,500 seat arena.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I am talking about season ticket sales. Yes, I know capacity is 98% since the SBC opened thank you, I'm talking about guaranteed gate for the team every game.

[TheWriter]

What are ticket season sales?

Last time I heard, it was some 10k or more.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Can you read?

That comes straight from a Spurs ticket staffer I've been talking to about season tickets.

Like I said, you're only guaranteed 13K a game in a 18K stadium with the best team in hoops playing in it, and you're thinking it's going to be so ing easy to fill up a 65K stadium for an NFL team that's only hopes of going to the Super Bowl any time soon is if their agents can hook them up with seats.

13k and your ing?

Man, give me two teams that have sales outs every day based on season ticket sales.

[Marcus Bryant]

Um, these are the 3 time champs in a city without any other major pro sports franchise.

[TheWriter]

Um, these are the 3 time champs in a city without any other major pro sports franchise.

So that means... what?

99% capacity last seaon.

The Lakers couldn't even get sale out seasons during their 00-02 three-peat run.

Give it up.

[TheWriter]

Neither could the Bulls during their three-peats.

[TheWriter]

Oh, and neither could the Jazz during their two final appearance seasons.
