    What a shock!
    I always liked seeing him in his seat behind the basket, it showed that he really cared about the team, it wasn't just another toy for him.

    Here is his 60Minutes piece, in case anyone is interested:

    Is this before or after the news of Paul Allen's death? It's his most recent post.

    I am not a fan of the Seahawks.... but honestly I'm glad that Paul won a championship, even if it was with them, before he died. It makes me so sad that we never won one for him.

    Just saw, or in the immortal words of another lost legend, I read the news today, oh boy. He sounded optimistic that he would beat the cancer. I wish we could have won a championship for him with the Blazers.

    One report said he is survived by his wife, no name viven. Could he have quietly gotten married?
