Two Teams Played a Basketball Game Last Night?
It’s just before I-35’s exit 201 that you see your first billboard: black, and grey, and “Go Spurs Go.” The support sits right before the San Marcos outlets and the Ingram Readymix Plant, the first sign that you’re in Spurs country, the first sign that there was actually going to be a basketball game in San Antonio last night.

Fans Look for Alternatives During Lockout
The tone we should all be experiencing in regard to the NBA lockout at this current time is one of pessimism.
