Happy Holidays, Everyone

I wanted to take this time to wish everyone Happy Holidays (and I should throw in a happy birthday to DBB's renowned creator, Matt Watson).  Surely, since 64 points and a loss to the Raptors is equivalent to receiving lumps of poop in our stockings, the Pistons are probably planning to gift wrap a belated win for us come Sunday when Rip, BG, and possibly even Tay return to the lineup.  

It's a real treat to be able to write about the Pistons and share the experience with all of you.  Even though I've been on SB Nation for almost 9 months, I realize I'm technically the n00b to Detroit Bad Boys.  With that being said, I think we're all going to get along nicely and have an awesome 2010 together.  I think I can speak for all of us here when I say that I appreciate your continued support.  

Be safe, everyone.  I'm going to drink some egg nog, listen to the following Christmas jams, and track Santa until he reaches my chimney:

Thanks to MwestBaller for posting this video in the FanShots

Merry Christmas

Ho ho ho!
It’s Christmas here in Oz. Santa has been and gone and left me with a heap of beer to get through.

Happy birthday to Matt and seasons greetings to you all!

new look

I’m all for changes, so long as the propensity for candid and frank discussion, including the use of salty language, isn’t curbed by the new arrangement. I frequent one other SB site (Blazersedge), and they’ve practically got babysitters. We’re grownups here, so hopefully we’ll be allowed to talk like the kids are in the other room.

screw you

PDX, I want overseers to curb my potty mouth

SB sucks.

I never wanted the old DBB as bad as I do now…

Anyway, Bill “The Sports Fag” Simmons has a doucher article on ESPN.com in which he proposes trades for all the teams in the NBA not as “awesome” as the Celtics (yank, yank) currently are. He ACTUALLY proposes Dumars would trade Tayshaun to the Celtics for nothing A.K.A. Tony Allen, Scalab… You know what, it doesn’t matter. Finishing his trade scenario would only lend credence to his Down’s Syndrome-induced idea. Bill Simmons, you deserve to die.

I've never liked Simmons...

I’m not trying to be an ass, but your comment is probably better off going in the FanShot where C$ posted the link to Simmons’ article. This is the joyous happy holidays thread! ha

Merry Christmas, I can finally get to the site

Was being sent to the old DBB for the past 36 hours or so, even when I tried from my phone.

Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone is having a good holiday season — I’m going to hunt for some eggnog …

Kids are happy, Im happy!

So the lakers make a mockery of themselves by getting their asses kicked at home, and the fans thrashing the court, And there are no highlights anywhere online.

That’s some christmas cheer right there, the theft of Pau Gasol and the Colorado rapist losing on their home court in the biggest game pre-playoffs.

Merry Christmas...

Site looks good, kind of weird going to DBB and having a completely new look after three years of the original site’s look.

by DBB Diablo on Dec 25, 2009 9:11 PM CST reply actions  

that lakers game was ridiculous!

I was watching it at work today and lakers fans showed themselves to be the whiny bitches in real life that they appear to be on the millions of message boards they spam. Seriously if you are going to whip water bottles and foam fingers on the court at least try and hit lebrun square in his ugly mug.

by dandresden on Dec 25, 2009 9:53 PM CST via mobile reply actions  

that should say lebron

for some reason my iPods spellchecker always changes lebron to lebrun

by dandresden on Dec 25, 2009 9:55 PM CST via mobile up reply actions  

Glad to hear

that BG, Rip, and Tay might be back. I was in the Palace for the first time in my life at the Toronto game, and I left during the 4th. It was supposed to be a thing of beauty, not this abomination.

by real Rob G on Dec 26, 2009 8:29 PM CST reply actions  

No wins either

Pistons never won when I was there, in fact I believe they started their 5 game win streak once I left Detroit.

by Laughton on Dec 26, 2009 8:39 PM CST up reply actions  

there was a theory

floating around DBB that you were a good luck charm, Laughton. I guess it’s for the best that your back in Oz

Lovin’ that vid. Mason makes a solid pitch… pretty creative stuff.
