    Having spent a decent amount of time in Boise, Idaho for work, they are more of a Jazz market than Blazers.

    Now remember, the Seattle mayor was a staunch supporter of keeping the Sonics in Seattle. Then OKC cut him a 30 million dollar check, which instantly changed the mayor's opinion.

    So the wife of a senator who spends most of his time on WDC, lives in NYC.


    The audacity that she wants to be close to him

    Announcement!

    You may or may not have noticed I haven't been posting much here lately. I had a big project in the works, and now I can tell you what it is.

    I've purchased the Portland Trail Blazers and all related assets, including the Moda Center.

    Big changes to come! Stay tuned!

    Honey Bucket Arena is more likely, but talks are ongoing.

    I feel the same about Stephen A Smith. I have no clue why anyone would choose to listen to him or Crapzano.

    I remember one time I was listening to a S.A.S convo. He was crapping on a white player for a racial comment, and the guy going back and forth with him (can't remember who) brought up a black player who had basically done the exact same thing. When confronted with this obvious display of hypocrisy, he said.....and I quote, "I ain't gonna disrepect a brotha".

    Never listened to him since.

    Here's the first news story that's come out.

    "barfo Acquires Portland Trail Blazers for $4 Billion, Trades Josh Hart for Giannis Antetokounmpo"

    Portland, OR - In a stunning move, technology tycoon barfo has announced his acquisition of the NBA's Portland Trail Blazers for a reported $4 billion. The deal includes all assets and operations of the franchise, as well as its home arena, the Moda Center.

    As part of the acquisition, barfo has also made a major trade, sending guard Josh Hart and others to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo. The two-time MVP has been one of the most dominant players in the league and is expected to make a significant impact for the Blazers.

    "We're thrilled to welcome Giannis to Portland and to become the new owners of the Trail Blazers," said a barfo spokesperson. "We believe in the power of basketball to bring people together and are committed to building a winning culture in Portland for years to come."

    The acquisition of the Trail Blazers marks a significant move into the sports industry for barfo, who has become one of the wealthiest men in the world through his innovative business ventures.

    Fans and analysts are eager to see what impact the acquisition will have on the franchise and the league as a whole. With Giannis on board, the Blazers are poised to be a major contender in the Western Conference and fans are excited to see what the future holds for their beloved team.

    This story is developing and more information will be provided as it becomes available.
