Work with me here New Orleans. We want to “come back and rebuild,” so in my humble opinion - WE SHOULD ALL SUPPORT OUR TEAMS!!! Last night my family attended the Hornets game and the arena was only about 30% filled. I’ll cut you some slack as it was a Monday night after a holiday [...]

Bummer the Hornets lost, but we had a blast at the game! Thanks Matt Biggers for the fabulous tickets! Now I have a tired crabby kid who missed the bus! Too hard to do games on school nights.
