    Im serious. Some of you are either unwilling or unable to emotionally deal with the ups and downs of being a Blazer fan. I'm not saying that you need to stop being fans, but time to take a chill, turn off the computer, go outside and take a few breaths.

    Maybe Simmons is right about Blazer fans. I'd like to think he's wrong, that we are more intelligent and passionate than other fans, and that's a source of strength for us.... but sometimes, I dont know. Tonight is one of those nights.

    Tru dat, it's only one game. It does hurt though. 10 point lead with 8 minutes left. After leading for the ENTIRE game, until late . . . it's a tough loss.

    I guess you can chalk up a lot of the sloppy play to a 5 game/7 night roadie.

    I was prepared to lose this game cuz 4-1 is pretty great. But dammit, 5-0 would've been amazing. A chance to move to the third best record in the league and stay ahead of the Lakers. Fuck. We were bound to lose our 4th game at some point this season.

    Agreed. Nothing takes the fun out of Blazers basketball quite like Blazers fans.

    You have a way with words. Another classic for someone's signature. But I'll hold out till I think of something better. That was pretty good, though.

    I don't really post regrettable things, but I type them sometimes and almost post them.. lol. I never post in the game thread during the game, but i read it during halftime and after the game, usually. I have not looked at it at all because I knew there would be a lot of bitching and that would just make me more upset. I think that some people should at least take a day off if they are too emotional. Nothing is gained by taking out your frustrations on fellow Blazer fans.

    lol that was great. I'm not too upset. It was a good game and we went 4-1 on the trip. I expected them to lose, but didn't expect them to lose in overtime. I'll sleep fine tonight.

    We're doing okay record-wise but we're such a disappointingly boring team to watch this season.

    There's mostly dis-jointed spurts of mere competence smattered with moments of bonehead blunders and instances of athletic brilliance.

    No apparent game plan, no consistent effort, no flow.

    Now we've lost Travis's high-flying theatrics until after the break at least.

    I expect we'll soon hear Webster's foot is the reason his game has slumped.

    What a mess.
