    Since entering the NBA before the 1976-77 season, the Nets are undefeated when they play on the day of a presidential election. This would be the ninth presidential election since then.

    Does this change the odds for tonight's game?

    Thanks for that info. That's really interesting.

    But they did lose to the Lakers earlier this year on Super Tuesday, the day Jersey voted. But primaries don't count lol

    Would be impressive if they didn't only play once on the actual night of the election.

    ok, so their record is just 1-0, and they haven't played on election night in 20 years. What of it?

    LOL, that's what I was going to say. Someone quoted that stat in the game broadcast the other night (or maybe it was on Nets.com).

    But I will readily embrace any meaningless statistic, so long as it is positve.:ghoti:

    Dumpy, the star of the game!

    What's with Albert and Fratello? Main guys covering the games, and they haven't even heard of Dumpy, THE Dumpy, of NetsDaily and Sportstwo? Shame on them. If Mark was still around, he would have told them "You're better than that!":tsktsk:

    Dumpy, I'm cropping out that text box. It's your new sig, screw your kids (not in that way. Incest is wrong).
