Hey Mal; GET OFF THE BENCH!
Mal....for gods sake get your ass of the players bench during games and get it up into that big corporate box at the end of the stadium. You know, the one that has remained empty for most of the season.
Sorry mate but last night I just about had enough of your pained looks every time the opposition scored and really felt like ditching my Giant Twin at you during the last qtr.
Unless you are going to hand out drinks and towels to the players go sit somewhere else. You cant justify your bench space by patting the Junior 6er on the head every now and then. I can only imagine what message your presence there sends to the players and staff. Sheez you are only a couple of chairs away from the coach. Next you will be calling plays to the point guards. Do you sit right next to the receptionist all day and look over her shoulder as well? (ok...if shes hot thats fine, Ill take that one on the chin)
Here's a thought. Strapped for ca$h are we? Invite a few State Managers into that big corporate box every game. Maybe start with the state manager of Distinctive Homes and Pura Milk. Ask them to bring along the managers of their 3 or 4 biggest customers, then wine them, dine them and show them what a jolly good time they can have at a 6ers game as a corporate sponsor.
Later that week send them some info on how cost effective it is to become a sponsor of the 6ers. If you need more money YOU need to do more than sit on the bench sweating on every opposition score.
This needs to be done by the man with the money (oh wait.. Eddy's broke)Well it needs to be done by the next best person and apparently you are in charge. The corporates want to talk to you, the man who runs the place.
It might be to late to organize before this Saturdays game but for everyones sake "Just do it".
