    Media Access; would be great if we could get some representation during pressers etc. Insert some collective basketball knowledge to these discussions.

    Ask for a 5 on 5 game, blazer starters vs. S2 all-stars.

    We might not win, but we'd find out the Blazers starting lineup.

    Bones had a great idea. I would attend a practice if the timing was right, since I work in Tualatin about a mile from the facility.

    Also, yes! a presser representation for the board would be great! except, I could see some of the questions being...

    "So did Sly really pee in the corner, or was he making that up?"

    "Did Lamarsha have as many shoes in the locker room as he has been talking about? Needing a house for them?"

    "Will Rice be able to properly pronounce all of the new players' names?"

    Hmmm, this press rep is now a concern in my book. LOL

    Thanks in advance for doing this. It's pretty kick ass that this little forum can even get the opportunity to do this. Thanks for speaking on behalf of us!

    Can you ask them about Mixum's attempts to lawyer up and shut S2 down? I could use a laugh.

    and to sell Schonz, tell him we'll donate to his foundation. And we'll buy buffalo wings and drinks for the Wild One.

    ask if they have any suggestions for Blazers Fans in other cities to get more exposure. We have this Blazers Fans LA group in my signature we'd like to get more popular with meetups. We got some swag from the Blazers social media bro which was pretty good. Would like to connect more with the organization though.

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/BlazerFansLA/

    We have probably a game watching meetup per month, maybe 10-15 people and are likely to have meetups before Blazers games in LA. Would like to see if we could have some kind of fan outreach opportunities.

    I'll ask but Rip City Row is most likely something we would have to pay for.

    You guys did a horrible job of breaking up LMA's meetings with the Spurs.

    I'd pitch in for myself and one other who can't pitch in... we get enough folks willing to do that, we'd have some fun.
