    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!! (It's Thanksgiving out here on the East Coast)

    I'm thankful for 12 wins in less than a month's time.

    Go Blazers!

    I'm thankful for a team I can be proud of.

    I'm thankful for players I can respect.

    I'm thankful for management that looks long-term.

    I'm thankful for depth that has allowed us to lose two important players and really not skip a beat.

    I'm thankful that once again, we can say, "It's a great day to be a Blazer!"

    I'm thankful for Dante Cunningham. He will do a fantastic job backing up Batum. He's like a billionaire's Ime Udoka.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Which takes talent. Why haven't other teams played 17 games by now? They don't have the endurance and passion and skill level.

    I'm thankful that we've had a nice start to the year despite a couple of key injuries. Get well soon Nic and Travis.

    I thank the Blazers everyday on my signature, but I will give special thanks to all you Homers and being in company of some of the most knowledgeable fans of the game. And I am thankful I have a board I can hate on the Lakers, living in a city surrounded by Laker fans. My little private Idaho.

    But most importantly, I'm thankful that one day in my lifetime I will witness a championship in Portland. Not too many fans can say that.

    What are you doing on the East coast? Did your acting take you there?

    I moved back to NYC. Not for a specific job. Just because it felt like time to go back and a few other personal reasons.
