    I may have a couple extra (free) tickets to the Arena Football game Saturday night at the Rose Garden. If you're interested in possibly joining me, email blazerwookee@gmail.com. They're complimentary tickets, given to me through a Veteran's organization. No idea where the seats are, or whether any swag comes with the tickets...

    Wook: I might be in Portland Saturday and if so it would be cool to join you.

    I'm on my phone going to a meeting or I'd email you. You know where to find me. :)

    BBert just backed out, looks like it's Sly, you, your son, and I. That is, if you're cool with your kid being around me swilling a few beers and acting silly in public...

    "Son, we're going to a game today, just remember not everybody can get away with acting like Wookee."

    It is all good. Your antics are probably going to help us get thru the game. I did not renew my season tickets because I find that there are just too many breaks and little action. He loves it. Thanks again!

    I refuse to acknowledge anything related to this team because of the name. The ownership pretended to have fan input decide the name but that was a sham as they went against the great choices fans supported. The name is a nemesis of the Blazers and completely unrelated to Portland, Oregon or the NW.

    If they change the name I'll support the team.

    I know right? I Haven't been to Oklahoma but I bet they actually have legit thunderstorms. We don't get shit here, I always naively wait for a thunder storm to brew but alas it never becomes anything close to what I've experienced in the south.

    For what it's worth, I absolutley love Thunder and lightning storms, they are one of my favorite graces of earth for whatever reason.

    Sly and Wookee took off about 20 minutes ago. Should I start checking the strip clubs?

    Knowing Wookee, if you see a coors light bottle trail, you're on the right track.

    Wookee had 4 Coors Lights in the 20mins. I was amazed!

    And CF, it was great finally meeting you! You're a true gentleman.

    Agreed. Thanks for helping 20 mins maximum of action in 3 hours go by enjoyably and without having to make a coffee run.

    I am now kind of feeling bad now. Wookee hooked not only me but my son with tickets. Did I say three words to him the entire night? I owe you Wook.

    Man. I just don't get arena football. It reminds me of a cross between beer league and roller derby. Maybe I am being mean but why don't they just get an NHL team in the Moda Center. The LA Kiss? Is the mascot a big tongue?
