    Came home for a quick bite to eat only to find a 2014 Playoff game on. Damn. There goes lunch!

    They don’t have a break room at Radio Shack?

    Radio Shack is still around? I thought it went out of business.

    I wish they still were in business. They made cheap record player needles.

    Damn! Some of you guys play such head games going into a matchup like tonight. I figure that my thinking the team will win or lose has zero impact on what is going to happen. I’m excited, but it’s just for a chance to see the Blazers tested against a good team.

    Well, I probably will give some thought to creative curses to hurl at the TV when the refs inevitably buy into a Rocket flop or two. I enjoy that too.

    As others have said at times in the game threads, I feel like the energy level has been lacking at the Moda overall this season. Tonight had better change that trend.

    My 5 year old son woke me up this morning. He said Dad its March 20th and tonight the Blazers play the Houston Rockets at the Moda Center...he knows the schedule by heart and he tells me what blazer game is on that day. If there isnt one he knows and says its so and so date and there is no Blazer game tonight but they play so and so next. He even is starting to know what other games are on besides the Blazer games. I'm raising this kid right!

    Kerry Eggers was just on the Dwight/Aaron show, and suggested that there might be an issue with James Harden's wrist. Has anyone heard anything about this?

    Looking out at Twitter, I guess he banged it up a little bit during the Wolves game a couple days ago. I doubt it will mean anything.

    Brent Barry could salvage it. He's the rare ex-player with legit PBP chops.

    I often wish Radio Shack was still around, and that they were the Radio Shack from the 1970s and 1980s before they changed and stopped selling electronic components. You could get any kind of diodes and resisters, you name it, anything electronic. Hell you could test and buy radio tubes. And the nerds who worked there knew their stuff. I really need a potentiometer for my old amplifier, but I don't have the tech knowledge to figure out what to get, or even where to get it. Progress.
