A Dear Clarkpojo letter from the Utah Jazz...

Dear Clarkpojo,

Is that how it is?  Rashes of injuries, a brutal Western Conference, and a four-game skid and it's over?  Fine then.  Be a Memphis fan.  Walk out on what we have, but remember... when #8 breaks Jacque Vaughn's ankles, #47 swats a Shaq shot, #5 dunks with his off hand, #13 is Money, #9 makes ESPN's Top 10 with a highlight flush, #24 goes for 20 and 20, #34 makes a cold-blooded three, #15 gets Nowitzki ejected, #26 ices a game at the FT line, #41 hustles to the scorer's table, #2 leads the second team, #17 brings some energy, #44 clotheslines LeBron, #31 uses his 6 fouls wisely, or #22 has Mo Nuts----we'll be enjoying it without you.

The rest of y'all, stick with us.  Continue to bleed Jazz blue and scream your guts out at the TV.  It *should* hurt when we lose, but we'll hurt together.  Then, when we win, we'll celebrate together.  Love us for who and what we are, and we promise to be there night in and night out, 82+ times every year.  We *are* the Utah Jazz, and if that's not enough for you, we'll move forward without you.

Sincerely,

Your Utah Jazz

Solid

the question is… how much are the Jazz hurting after the losses? Because there really doesn’t seem to be much emotion.

I know the season is long and injuries are killing the team, but there seems to be almost no reaction after yet another loss.

  1. using his 6 fouls wisely… what? When has that ever happened?

agreed.

they seem to have an “oh well” mentality after losses.

fairweather fans

need not apply. True Jazz fans are made of a thicker skin than your average, and if you cant stand behind them through all these struggles, then we dont need you. Quality over quantity is what I always say…..funny after the Jazz beat the Lakers all kinds of new Jazz fans come out of hiding, well guess what I was there when we lost to the Thunder and the Wizards, and I will be there if they dont make the playoffs, some might call me foolish, but its simple Im a Jazz fan and Ive been through worse with them…

I'm with the Jazz through thick and thin...

but KJZZ is testing my patience this year. Are they really interested in becoming a non-regional team that only appeals to those in the SLC metro area?

KJZZ

I hate what they’re doing.
Especially since I don’t get FSN.
