Initially, with this being New Years Day, and all, the plan was to unveil a few New Years Resolutions for the team. So those don't go to waste, here they are:
- Here's an idea: Win some games
- Unveil a mascot. Preferably one that doesn't scare the bejeezus out of the ClarkPupp
- Market the team (Who cares if one of the billboards turns into a running joke like "Feel the Buzz with the Birdman". The way to insure long-term success for the team in this market is to assist in making the players household names. Kevin Durant's face should be on my television and plastered all over Oklahoma City. Right now, the Thunder brass are basking in the sellout of season tickets. Well, guess what? The goodwill of moving the team and securing a major league franchise will only last for a couple of seasons. So either the team needs to start winning games or the hearts of the fans. With the crappy game production and crappy floor product, they are doing neither. For the sake of the future, start marketing now!)
