Omg.... I'm crying.... I can't believe I'm crying right now.

Its 3:12am, I'm scouring the internet for Blazers footage. Everytime I see the shot, I'm still tearing up. FUCK. I am fucking fucked!

 

Got 2 hours of sleep before work today, being tired never felt so good! Walking on sunshine motherfuckers!

 

I couldn't sleep. Too excited.

 

When I say sleep it was more like a waking dream, a dream that came to life!

 

Ya i got like an hour or so of shaky sleep. Skippin the gym this am and planning on getting crunk to celebrate tonight. My brain will hate me for this, but my heart will love it

 

Yeah were was the Paul cam?! I was hoping to see his mild-manner enthusiasm as he stands up and tries hard to rhythmically clap.

I love the guy, think he's done right as a owner but he's just not the most emotional guy in the world.

 

10 hours later, I stopped crying but now I have the hiccups.

 

I realized I couldn't sleep around 1:00 AM, so I went to my corner bar wearing my Blazer hat and shirt and lo and behold there were two other Portland fans there. We had never met, yet we high fived and hugged like lifelong friends. Then we bought a shot for the entire bar and told everyone to hold their drinks. We toasted the Blazers and Dr. Jack. The sight of Denverites toasting our team and our fallen coach was something to behold.

I came home pretty drunk after closing and slept like a baby. Go Blazers!

 

I couldn't stop laughing and celebrating last night. Rough day at work now, no way I'd be crying after that historical game, I'm cheering my ass off! Wife thought I'd gone over the edge when the game ended, came downstairs to see if I was OK...I pretty fucking far beyond OK!

 

was at blitz on 99. place erupted.

 

After the shot on the KGW broadcast, there is a shot from the baseline showing the court, and in the background you can see Dirt Clod, Paul Allen, and Olshey going bananas. Olshey's face is beet-red.

 

nice story, thank you for sharing

 

For the record, the shots were Jack Daniels. For Dr. Jack, of course.

 

Repped. That is a perfect ending to the night. Today I was wearing my I heart Portland T-shirt and although a bunch of people told me how much they love Portland too, no one here in San Diego mentioned the game.

 

Itunes sells the games. I'm going to buy games 2, 4 and 6.

 

Really?! I may just buy them too... I will purchase the Blazers title DVD when we win it all as well! ™

 

ahh, only game 4 is on there right now. Its in HD and only $2.99.

They only are putting up the "Playoff Classics". Game 6 def should be in there. I have the Brandon Roy game against Dallas. Really good to archive them.

 

Honestly, every time I watch that Brandon Roy game I still tear up. This feeling won't go away. Just the emotions. The fact that we follow the team so closely brings us this joy.

 

I did see Paul Allen run onto the court after the game.

I got up at 4:30 AM to watch replays, then cleaned my house and found myself singing "Joy to the World". Can't remember, sorry, which boardster posted the definition of joy last night but I'm sure that started it.

Book it. Dame gets ESPY for best NBA Play and Play of the Year. Yes, meaningless awards but Portland gets ignored so much, I'll be happy with the recognition.

 

That B-Roy game is so bittersweet. I basically cry every time I watch it, because it's the last great game from a player I really liked, who deserved a better career.
