Way To Go Pacers !!!

Perhaps only my mom, Brad Miller and I are happy about it but the Pacers comeback in the 4th was a sweet sight to behold.

We know not what the future may hold but for now we have HCA.

My Mom grew up in Terre Haute and is a Purdue alum, so I learned early to root for Purdue and against Notre Dame if I wanted to eat.... LOL

I love the Cubs for the same reason I love the Kings, the team plays for the game even if they don't always win and fans are fans no matter what.

I'm a Hoosier born (in South Bend) and educated (at IU), and I was thrilled by the Pacer's gutty win tonight. The Pacers are easily my second favorite NBA team, so I have to say that the TNT double-header tonight was pretty damned satisfying for me...

Forster, what a terrific night!

 

[JayBird]

Forster, what a terrific night!

No kidding. 20 rebounds. Incredible. If Pacers can win Game 3, I like their chances.

 

[loopymitch]

I'm sorry I missed it, sounds like a great game. Very glad they won also and I'm not from IN.

Only reason I like Purdue is because of Brad.. I am from the South Bend area. So of course I am a ND fan. More of a football ND fan and Hoosier BBall fan. All because of Digger, I could not stand him.

You know were Jimtown is? Also the infamous DRUG abuser, Shawn Kemp is from Concord which was our rival school.

My Dad was from a really little town in Indiana - Lynn. Dad's been gone 20 years but I know he'd be rooting for the Pacers!

 

[BigWaxer]

Lynn is a tad south from were I grew up.

Man lot of Kings fans from IN. Or with IN roots.

 

[troosvelt]

Another game and another win.....

I don't expect them to beat Miami, but it would be nice to make it another round.

 

[Lirica]

..I went to college in Indiana..Purdue, IU and Ball State..yep..all three..

..I spent a lot of time in Michigan City also..

..anyway..my teams are Rockets and Kings..since they are both gone, I say..

GO PACERS!

 

[BigWaxer]

^^ Wow you were all over the state attending those 3 schools.

Anyway good win by the Pacers, I would be amazed if they make it past the Pistons but hey anything can happen. Hopefully the anything will.

Anyone know where Connersville is??

P.S. What's a "hoosier"?

 

[PixelPusher]

P.S. What's a "hoosier"?

Way back, during colonial times, the frontiersmen who travelled into the lands now known as Indiana were often taunted by the local Native American tribes with the chant, "Who's yer Daddy!".

The frontiersmen eventually adopted this as their nickname, and shortened it to "Who's your" or "Hoosier".


True story. Honest.

 

[tyrant]

way to go pacers

 

[troosvelt]

Great story pixie.

The actual truth is, in typical Indiana fashion, is that nobody knows for sure where it comes from, although there are a number of stories.
