Who we be

Ron Hitley, site blogger and promoter

ron [at] hornets247 [dot] com

Ron blogs his ass off about the Hornets whenever he feels like it or has some time to spare, hence the irregular intervals between posts. Hornets fan since '93 when Zo doomed Boston at the buzzer, Ron doesn't like Alonzo Mourning anymore. Ron's from the East Coast, though he moves around a lot. He was in New Jersey once. Ron drinks too much whiskey.

Ron says:

"The three essentials of happiness: Something to love, something to do, and something to hope for. I love the Hornets, I blog the Hornets, and I hope to hell they at least get past the second round of the Playoffs before I die."

Niall Doherty, site creator and developer

You don't know this guy. He's Irish, but he knows his Hornets. Niall is responsible for most of the coding and design around here. He's not as good as he thinks he is, but he's getting better. You're pronouncing his name wrong. Contact Niall if you have any suggestions for the site or if you want to give us money for advertising. We like money.

Niall says:

"I have a recurring nightmare where the Hornets trade Chris Paul for Baron Davis. I wake up screaming."

Design Log

In its earliest, most pathetic form, this site has been in development since 1998, but only made it online in time for the 2003-04 season. We have undergone several facelifts since the original Hornets247 was born, learning something new every time, and striving to make the site as funky, innovative and informative as possible.

Here's a quick walkthrough of the different faces the site has seen. Click on the images for a full screenshot.
