DEAD! Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 What's Spanish for Spurs? they should have went with that. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmackman Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 What's Spanish for Spurs? they should have went with that. "I AM EL NINO! YO SOY EL NINO! ALL OTHER STORMS BOW TO THE POWER OF EL NINO! FOR THOSE WHO DON'T HABLA ESPANOL, EL NINO IS SPANISH FOR....THE NINO!" -- Chris Farley "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edensker Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 And I thought that "Los Rangers" night was stupid. I have no problem with a team having a promotion involving the Hispanic community, but can't they do better than merely adding the word "Los" to the jersey?

jman077 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I love the Gigantes jerseys, but, mi favorito es los Cerveceros:How cool is that? So, why not Los Espuelas? Los Spurs is not spanish. Sig courtesy of LEWJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallWonk Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Indeed, Cerveceros is better than Gigantes. The Nats are doing a Latino Heritage game this year, and I hope to see them sporting jerseys that read "Nacionales."But seriously, what would be the Spanish for "Spurs"? The noun form, that is -- I'm pretty sure the verb "to spur" would be estimular, but the team is named for the noun, not the verb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illwauk Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Los + English Nickname = Reeking of panderingSeriously, if "reaching out" to the Latino community means so much to the Spurs, why not just bring back the "fiesta" colored logo? That would at least show the Latino influence on their image before it was trendy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
