    HCP and the rest of the Blazer broadcasting crew won an Emmy last night for something to do with sports broadcasting and lawn mowing.

    Congrats!

    I don't think they give an emmy for the taco server.

    Thanks for the shoutout guys. It's a NW regional Emmy......so obviously we weren't up against MNF or the Masters, but in my industry it is kind of a big deal. Last night while working a big HBO Pay-Per-View fight in NYC, they gave me some love about it, so I can say I'm a bit proud of all the hard work put in to get acknowledged for this.

    As for the Mexican jokes, I hate all you! If one of you photoshop wizards could make something with me holding an Emmy, I'd tweet it out!

    HCP, do you get an actual Emmy trophy or does it just go to the Blazers?

    Best part is, I think we beat out the Mariners and Sounders broadcasts for the award.

    Congrats, John. Barrett specifically called you "the best in the business" on the last playoff game. Must.Feel.Good.

    On the reals, congrats. And yes, Barrett did say you were the best in the business, I remember that.

    Also, the M's broadcast isnt as good as the Blazers, that's for sure. The Sounders I have no idea.
