Seriously Hannah, get in the game. And come up with a anchor name that isn't so obviously fake! Just kidding, I know plenty of people with the last name "Storm".

Even more unacceptable is that she was once a local sports anchor in Charlotte.

[Scottley Crue]

I saw that this morning. You'd think a producer would be yelling in her ear that it was the Bobcats/Kings on the screen instead of the Hornets/Griz.

It's been six years, Why are people still confused. Especially people who get paid to know this type of stuff. hey don't say the Vancouver Grizzlies or Minneapolis Lakers....So why hate on the Cats?

She wasn't confused about the name of the Charlotte team. It was a simple mistake about which highlight was being shown. I really didn't see the big deal. It probably wasn't even her fault.

Yeah, it's where the teleprompter doesn't get updated but the order of highlights does, it happens a lot actually, but the good anchors can wing it.

ya dont get me wrong, i like hannah storm an thinks she does a good job...i just found it to be funny because i sat there an waited all morning for the highlights to be shown only to hear her talk about how the hornets went into overtime last night haha...just our luck i guess

Naw what your missing is it's not just Hanana Strom one time on ESPN. It's play by play guys, broadcasters, plenty of random sports related people still call the Bobcats the Hornets. Now maybe if the Hornet name was dropped they might have a right to be confused. But the damn franchised moved, They are the New Orleans Hornets now. No one calls the Thunder the Supersonics or the Wizards the Bullets. At what point does it stop being "just a mistake" ?

Probably when we make the playoffs.

Or when Stephen Jackson calls out ESPN. :p

Have you read this thread? She didn't call the Bobcats the Hornets. She was given the wrong game on the prompter to do the game for. Geez.

Did you read his post? He wasn't referring to Hannah Storm specifically but rather other times sports reporters have called us the Charlotte Hornets. Who watched the game against Phoenix, one of the announcers doing the game called us the "Charlotte Hornets" and his partner didn't even address his mistake.

[teej]

^Yeah, like 3x in a row. Denver game too!

But yeah, until we get a sportscenter commercial, a playoff series win, or Jack plays Shooting Guard at Bristol, we're "the Hornets"

Yes, I read the post. It was just another everyone is against us post that has nothing to do with this thread.

I'm sorry post police, but I never said Hanana Strom called the Bobcats the Hornets. What I did say was this "mistake" happens alot. It happens to this team more then any other.

I'm pretty sure my post has just as much to do with this thread as your needless disagreement. You don't think Ms. Storm doing the recap of a Bobcats game and the folk in the control booth playing Hornets highlights is even slightly related to everyone still calling the Bobcats the Hornets?

listen to the simmons/adande podcast. 42:15 mark.

[teej]

Haha we don't have playoff experience? Ray is the only starter who HASN'T played in the postseason, and Nazzy and Jack have rings! Ugh. Adande, you're a fucking moron. Go back and chill with Snoop in the lounge.

At least Simmons likes us, which is more important than Adande being retarded.
