you guys are hella negative tho>>>i mean most of the post have been negative..yeah chris cohan is a horrible owner but we have a pretty decent team if you ask me and we need to support the players not the management….this should not be that big of a deal if you ask me….you think this doesn’t go on with other teams with employes in other markets??
my thing is this we were injured all last year and mustard damn near 30 wins. with a healthy squad, and some additions and subtractions i think we can be more then competitive in the West

Hey Marcus, about a year ago the Warriors were running a promotion where they were giving out Stephen Jackson bobblehead dolls. When I inquired into getting one (I live in Seattle) you referred me to Ridder. I called Raymond at the end of the promotion and he actually Fed-Xed a spare bobblehead to me that was still lying around. I spoke to Raymond and thanked him (as I thank you now). Raymond actually seemed to be an OK dude. Too bad he wasn’t Internet-savvy enough to post AWAY from the office. I wonder if Raymond secretly detests his job; always trying to cover the sow with a silk dress.

Why is this a big deal? Bob Fitzgerald tries to make upper management look good everyday! Nobody says anything about that. It’s ridiculous.

if the beat writers had any ‘SPAULDINGS’ they wouldn’t take the crap that the fat ass couch doles out….I know I wouldn’t stand there with a pad laughing at his sarcastic comments and take his poop…the internet is not the only reason the bay area is gonna’ lose its newspapers pretty soon, it’s suck ups who call themselves newspaper people who can’t write a lick. that goes for all the writers in the papers…as charles barkley once said…”bad team….bad —-ing team.” (76ers when he was there).

Day 2 — and still nothing in the CCT from Marcus, or anyone else for that matter. (Tho the Chron’s beat writer also ducked the story, Ratto had a nice, tough column on it today.)

So, what’s the reason? Not newsworthy (ho-ho)? No wish to rock the boat (we saw what happened with Geoff Lepper)? Sports editors want to avoid such stories and won’t let Marcus be Marcus in the paper (like the way they had him “cover” Riley’s coming out party as “news”)?

As hard as it is for some — not me — to believe Warrior FO people would pull a stunt like this, it’s harder for me to understand why the CCT ducks the story, fails to follow up with interviews, leaves such boorish conduct to the bloggers and the national press, who aren’t such captives. I’m not sure the CCT is handling this story any better than the Warriors — who seem to be ducking it pretty well with the help of their press friends.

Maybe more than one house needs some cleaning here. Well, at least they let you do the blog, Marcus.

Time to Clean the house and as fans all we can do is “Boycott the Warriors until Chris Cohan sells the team!!!”

Marcus,

You’re terrible, so bad, just unreal… you know less about basketball than the Albanian exchange student who lives in my basement and yells out “goal!” every time we watch a basketball game together and hangs his laundry on my 20 gauge fishing line and cooks stews that smell like cheesy feet for weeks at time… seriously you know less than him… he actually played pro ball in Greece.

The guy got caught by warriorsworld.net, so he had to fess up or else he he would have been revealed.

Now, if some Warriors or any other local team’s insider wants to post trade tidbits and info, then I don’t think the bloggers would mind that one bit. LOL.

And I love your reason # 3 and one of the reasons why Warriors fans immediately took it so negatively. It was close to 100% if not 100%:
Reason No. 3: While I am not shocked that it happens, I am shocked that someone of Raymond’s status, who actually shapes the message of the Warriors, also tries to shape the reaction. I’m a big West Wing fan. This is equivalent to the Press Secretary or the WH Communications Director posing as a citizen and trying to shape the reaction. You can’t play both sides of the fence. At least, you can’t get caught playing both sides of the fence. Fans don’t get to shape the message, or the product, so the Warriors shouldn’t get to shape their opinion of it. That’s practically a violation of the First Amendment!

Please, Cohan, sell the team!
