    Your take on playoff atmosphere and etiquette?

    I love both teams, however the Blazers will always be my #1 to the Timbers yet my primary youth sport was soccer and never basketball. Sure, the buzz is loud around the Timbers to make you think it could surpass the Blazers. However, the RSN ratings say otherwise. The average RSN Rating for...

    NBA Mt. Rushmore

    Yes, a NBA team has 5 players on the court, however that is completely irrelevant to the Mt. Rushmore analogy. This isn't about picking the best 5 players as your starters, this is about putting the Top 4 Players in the history of the game.

    Blazer Fanatic has been banned.

    That feature never crossed my mind. Thank you for the tip.

    Blazer Fanatic has been banned.

    I lurk these boards much much more than I post and it was tiresome to try and read through BF's rants as of late. I have come across her on other Blazer Boards and it is always the same story with her. She deliberately attacked others and took offense to journalists who didn't opined the...

    OT: Lebroning

    Flopping is what it is now, which is why I just flat out don't care and have just accepted it as part of the game. It is a way to deceive the official into a foul. It is the same way as a player yelling around the rim to make it seem he got hit, or a pump fake from the 3 point arc only to...

    The OFFICIAL Stampede vs Vipers Game Thread 1/3/14.......

    I think your missing the big picture Nate is conveying. He isn't necessarily saying LeBron gets a pass regarding his turnovers, but his overall offensive and defensive production on the floor severely outweighs how many turnovers he has per game. Turnovers are essentially no more than a...

    GAME THREAD: HEAT @ BLAZERS - 12/28/13, SATURDAY, 7 PM (PST), KGW

    I was under the impression if the player physically affects the inbound than it is a foul and not delay of the game. Every call can be considered subjective, but I don't necessarily think it is solely up to the officials discretion on this particular violation.

    GAME THREAD: HEAT @ BLAZERS - 12/28/13, SATURDAY, 7 PM (PST), KGW

    I believe it is a new rule this year Strenny.

    Ducks wearing pink?!?

    I have to admit, I love the Ducks uniforms. Do they always keep it a secret what color scheme they are going to wear?

    Ducks wearing pink?!?

    Don't think so. Supposedly the helmet is being sold on eBay... http://offthebench.nbcsports.com/2012/10/03/when-ebay-blurs-reality-the-pink-oregon-ducks-football-helmet-tantalizes-confounds/

    Ducks wearing pink?!?

    Nah won't be embarrasing. The reputation of the color pink is completely different than it was 10 plus yeas ago. I think it is awesome the Ducks are considering wearing the pink helmets, if it is true. As someone who has had family members fight breast cancer, I can only applaud the Ducks...

    Ducks vs Huskies 10/04 Game Thread

    As a UW Huskies grad, I'm hoping we keep this close. However, our beaten and bruised O-Line is going to kill us. I'm anxious to see how our D lines up against your speed on offense as well. Our D has seen vast improvements since the Baylor game last year. Our O-Line is the X Factor in ths...

    Regarding Matthews

    How can we trade our leader in the locker room? /sarcasm

    So what went wrong?

    Look how the "best roster" is playing without a healthy Roy. That should say enough considering Roy took a lesser roster further than it should during the McMillian era, correct?

    I think we will be better now than before

    I'm a glass full type of guy, but this is a little too ambitious for me. We didn't make these trades to improve this season, we made these trades at an attempt to better our future. I would be shocked if we turned anything around. Edit: Patty Mills absolutely sucks. He can wave his towel and...

    Has anyone bought tickets from a scalper outside the RG on game night?

    If you don't mind missing the first couple of minutes, that is the cheapest way to buy them. Baseline 5 rows up for $50 a piece one time...

    Hey, HCP....What's Team "Chemistry"?

    IMO, chemistry isn't about how the players interact off the court because it doesn't take them to be friends to understand each of their respected games, but more of a general respect for each other. It's understanding the strengths and weaknesses of your teammates, knowing their tendencies...

    Roy to retire today????

    From my understanding it wouldn't really make sense. The difference of keeping Roy on contract and using the amnesty on him is going from being able to offer a mini mid level to the full MLE. Not much difference considering the targets out there. Smarter to wait until he is off the books and...
