    Went to a party at Brian Grant's house in West Linn a decade ago, that was fun. Ran into Dame in the Club once but no words came to mind lol.

    I see it was confirmed Chris Paul had covid. I've always been a fan of his, but not getting vaccinated is not being a good teammate.

    He apparently was one of the few who tested positive after vaccination.

    Maybe this is a money thing? Wasn't he lured there with unusually high pay for an assistant?

    Right - I'm surprised you (@UKRAINEFAN) missed this, because everyone was going on about it.

    If you can’t help him, trade him as he deserves a ring like Clyde

    really hard for me to see him "winning big" here, love Dame, lets trade him for a great return where he has a much better chance to win a title

    Exactly. He deserves better than our trash franchise. You got guys like Booker and Trey Young all ready being provided the best from their franchise and Dame still barley getting out the 1st round 10 years in

    Cracker-ass? That sounds bad. I'll admit that my ass has a crack (doesn't everyone's), but "cracker"? I'll have to ask Mrs. HCP to translate next time I see her.

    Why would we trade Dame? Why do we owe him to trade him in his prime to a contender? Aren’t we pay him a quarter billion dollars?

    I think all the debts are settled.

    Coach a round robin of youth sports (of either gender) for several years in either Lake Oswego, West Linn or Wilsonville and the odds of you coaching a former Blazer’s kids are surprisingly high……..

    Coolest person I ever ran into (and I don’t give a shit about stars or celebrity’s, we all shit the same way) was Teddy Atlas, Mike Tyson’s old trainer. We were both waiting for a flight. I was sitting next to him. No one realized it was him. I had just watched a Mike Tyson documentary so I recognized him immediately. Very nice guy. Small in stature but you can tell he can whoop some ass.

    wait why are we talking about running into famous people?
