It would not be a fluke when something happens year after year. You may ask how the Hornets can win so many times.
With their one-point victory in Portland on Monday, the Hornets are 14-3 in games decided by five points or less this season. Combine that with a 1-7 record in games decided by 15 points or more and you have a team with a negative point differential (-1.2 per game) and a winning record. Their point differential says the Hornets should be 20-25 at this point, yet instead they're 25-20. The Hornets sit in eighth place in the Western Conference, but statistically, three of the teams behind them in the standings are better.
Paul with the No.3 hornets jersey said they are used to it and they do that night in and night out.

I’ve got a lot of family that is kind of (undecided) which side they’re pulling for.”

Cable wants a meeting with Davis
Tom Cable is still expecting to have a talk with owner AI Davis about his position as Oakland Raiders coach.
Cable said at his season-ending news conference Jan.4 that he would meet Davis sometime this week. But till to wednesday, the meeting had not happened. According to team senior executive John Herrera, the time is not set for the meeting. Cable’s job status is in question after he went 5-11 in his first full season as coach and failed to develop JaMarcus Russell into a legitimate NFL quarterback. Cable made some improvement after Russell's mess season that proves his value to sign another year to lead the players with raiders jerseys back to the playoffs.

Wearing the No.29 jets jersey, Leon Washington hopes to play on the field in the Jets' first game next season.
Doctors said his broken right leg is two months ahead of a normal recovery and may he can be off crutches next week. "Everything's looking on the up and up, and I'm just looking forward to when I can start jogging," Washington said. "I've got a long way until the season starts. I'm on pace to be there for the opening game of the season, so I just try not to push myself too much." Washington underwent a fracture of the tibia and fibula at Oakland on Oct.25 then accepted a surgery with six to 12 months to heal.
Everything seems to be good with Washington.

No one hates hits
Fans with NFL jerseys always expect big hits happened in their supporting teams no matter how serious the NFL concerning about the concussions.
“The whole concussion issue is scary, but it’s not going to change the way a real football fan looks at the game,” Matt Sandbrook of Tampa, Fla., said while watching a late season Colts-Jaguars game at a sports bar. “Injuries are a detriment; concussions are a detriment. It’s good they’re trying to do some things to help the players, but fans still want to see football. Hitting is part of football. There’s no way to escape that.

Our goals are much higher,” said Ryan, heading to the postseason in his first year as a head coach. “We were 4-6 and we had a mission with the team. It went from impossible to improbable, back to impossible and then to inevitable.”
Cornerback Darrelle Revis with the jets jersey said they had to give back to the fans.
