    ESPN from '98, joined BBF after jlprk became insufferable on ESPN with his political talk, and moved here after Hap/Dan had his meltdown and banned me and some others for commenting on the 2008 presidential race in that forum's Blazer OT board.

    Refresh my memory. Is this the place that was the big New Jersey Nets home, and then they got upset because members of the Blazer community wouldn't branch out and talk to them, so they left this place?

    You said it best recently. We're just a weird bunch, but damn it, we're our own bunch. (paraphrase)

    I owned the Blazer ESPN board, but after my favorite poster PapaG ran away, I gave up my throne and my kingdom to follow him. I will always follow him wherever he goes, nipping at his heels in adoration like a puppy.

    It must be why we infuriate the rubes so much; we've been around so long we don't even acknowledge noobs that much.

    Sabonis, my favorite blazer of all time. Was so sad when he retired.

    Even broken down, from the waist up he was one of the three best players in the game.
