    There's a place for everything. If 9/11 happened all over again, I wouldn't want that on the Blazers board either.

    All Sports related stories happen on the main board. This isn't a Winterhawks board either. Anyway, it's fucking awful (the crash, unless that wasn't clear).

    Is you trying to get on a local crappy radio show "sports related?"

    Keep it civil. Just let it stay here.. no wondering if it goes in OT or not.

    It's Blazers related. This is the Blazers board.The show is called Blazers Outsiders. And it's a TV show, not a radio show.

    A truly sad time for those in the team family, and those in that tight knit community. God Bless them and comfort them. You don't have to be a fan to know how awful this is. Blessings to ALL involved.

    Says the dude who constantly makes threads about 2K and made a thread about having sex with an NBA player.

    I'm not complaining about those, just saying, you have NO room to complain.

    @KingSpeed You're gonna complain about this thread not being in the OT section, but...

    This one is Blazer related, yet comical coming from the dude who hates negativity:

    A thread about people in NYC who use Twitter:
    http://www.sportstwo.com/threads/top-100-twitter-users-in-nyc.277638/

    All those were posted in the main Blazer thread. Yet you have a problem with THIS THREAD?

    For God's sake dude.. I could've kept going and probably found more. And who knows what random threads got moved into the OT Section. Don't be so hypocritical.

    Not only that, but there are things in life that are bigger than Sports, message forums or characters we portray on a message board.

    If there was another 9/11 type attack on US soil, I would hope it would be talked about on the main forum.

    it might eventually moving to the OT forum, but like I said, some things are bigger than Sports.

    I wounder how many basketball players are being evicted as children and making it big in the NBA.
    I know... I know. That was weak but it's the best i could do.

    Humboldt Broncos player Logan Boulet on life support, will donate organs

    The family of a Humboldt Broncos player from Lethbridge who was injured in a tragic bus crash Friday night says Logan Boulet is on life support – and will donate his organs to six people in need.

    Boulet, a defencemen, was on his way to a semi-final game against the Nipawin Hawks when a tractor trailer and the bus collided, killing 15 people and injuring over a dozen more.

    The captain, Logan Schatz, nine other players, two coaches, a radio play-by-play announcer and a statistician from the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey team were confirmed killed.

    Boulet’s father Toby told Global News that the 21-year-old’s heart remained strong as of Saturday night, and officials have found a positive match for all organs that can be donated.

    The organs will be harvested overnight Saturday.

    The family said in a statement that Logan signed his donor card as soon as he turned 21, and that even in his passing he would be a hero.

    The statement from the family is as follows:

    Despite other media reports today, Logan’s strong heart continues to beat this evening. The final harvesting of Logan’s organs will take place overnight, now that he has positive matches for all organs donated. He is giving new hope to at least six different people. Logan made it clear previously that he signed his donor card as soon as he turned 21. Even in his eventual passing, he will be a selfless hero.
