Contest Winner

Raps Fan — Wed, 31 Oct 2007 13:52:32 +0000

I am really happy to announce that we do have a winner for our opening day contest. The winner has been contacted, and as soon as he/she (can’t tell by the name) responds, and sends a pic, I will stick it up.

I apologize for the timing of all this (today is the day of the draw, and opening day), but for some reason, I thought the first game was on November 2nd.

Register and Win!

New Years Resolution

Raps Fan — Wed, 03 Jan 2007 07:21:51 +0000

The Toronto Raptors gave me a lot during the first 31 games of the regular season…a 13-18 record (6-5 during Bosh’s absence). TJ Ford has surpassed all my expectations. He still plays a little erratic, but gives me a tingly feeling (Thanks Rod!) when he’s on the floor. Parker gave me the gift of smoothness and professionalism. Jorge gave me the gift of grit. Andrea gave me the gift of hope. Bosh gave me the gift of leadership. Calderon gave me the gift of consistency. PJ Tucker is just a badass, he needs the gift of more minutes. And finally…Colangelo gave me the gift of vision.

I am compelled to give back myself. I started this season with high hopes and aspirations for RaptorsTalk.com. I want to have game by game analysis, player analysis…but what happened you may ask? Well, as per usual, I bit off more than I could chew, and spread myself damn thing. So my new years resolution is as follows:

I WILL ENDEAVOR TO POST AT LEAST 1 STORY FOR EVERY TORONTO RAPTORS GAME FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON.
I WILL ENDEAVOR TO MAKE THE POSTS INTELLIGENT
I WILL DO MY BEST TO GIVE GAME/PLAYER/MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS THAT IS ON THE CUTTING EDGE
I WILL TRY TO GIVE RAPTORSTALK.COM A FACELIFT, AND GET THE FORUMS (WEAK AS THEY ARE) FLOWING AGAIN

How will I accomplish this all you may ask? I don’t know. All I know is that I will be putting in an hour a day, on average, into this bad boy, and hope for the best. Your support in 2007 will be much anticipated, appreciated, and hopefully compensated (again, I don’t know how I will compensate, but some sort of restitution will be made). Thank you all, and God bless.
