    I saved and sacrificed to feed that kid. Big fat mistake.

    The only time I was on Broadway, I was approached by a slim, classy, very well-dressed, soft-spoken black prostitute. Oh, you mean Portland.

    In Bellingham, I last saw a prostitute 40 years ago. Sitting in a bar, no business. They don't really exist here. 1/3 of the city population is college students.

    Right. It's unfortunately different for us.

    I honestly live my life defeating stereotypes.

    Russ just reinforced them.

    Well the guy deleted all of his social media accounts. I'm sure there was some racist stuff there. maybe he said something we don't know.

    I honestly wouldn't put it past a MAGA bot...

    * I think it's going to be difficult for Portland to catch Denver. The Nuggets are 3.5 games ahead of Portland and they will own the tiebreaker....so, essentially they are 4.5 games ahead with 15 left. That's difficult math for Portland. If Denver goes 8-8 the rest of the way, Portland would have to go 12-3. If Denver goes 7-9, Blazers would have to go 11-4. Both scenarios are possible but both seem like real long-shots; especially if Denver beats Dallas tonight


    * Houston is a half game ahead but Portland owns the tiebreaker (about the only one they own in the WC), so the Blazers are essentially a half game ahead. But Houston has a much easier closing schedule and have been lately playing close to the level they played at last season. Have to give Houston the edge.

    It's easier to look at it if Portland beats Denver twice, they have to go 10-3 while Denver has to go 8-6. Not probably, but not impossible.

    Yep, we're now ahead of OKC and only a 1/2 game behind Houston, but this will be a dog fight to the end. There will be some more losses by those involved.
