    [take this info for what it's worth since I heard it through the grapevine, and since I'm also the jerk-face who chicken-littled that Oden would miss the season just 15 hours ago, but ...]

    Oden - nothing broken, just needs some slight rest. Prognosis is that he should miss a week.

    Hopefully the official word at 3 o'clock confirms this scenario.

    I hope your right. I don't mind if it is just 1 or 2 weeks.

    Could we somehow get a bubblewrap suit approved by the NBA for Greg?

    Jesus Chrysler!

    I just heard on the game that Nate said he hasn't made any changes to his lineup for Friday. That is sort of good news if you want to read something into that announcement.

    A week would be fantastic news for this team. (Even if he misses the home opener and the game against PHX.)

    I pick the left side of the ball. Those thighs look delicious!

    Edit: I fail at life and mix up left and right. This happened to me once at the hospital and it was very embarrassing.

    I still think we beat the Spurs b/c Manu is out.

    Yikes, we might start out the year 0 and 5. I guess that was probable before Oden's recent injury, but now it looks like a near certainty.

    Bill Simmons' comments about the Blazers being the "Internet's favorite team" is starting to feel prophetic only days after he wrote it.

    That would imply neither bone nor ligament damage. That seems pretty optimistic.

    I bet the national people are laughing at us right now... we're so obsessed with our team.
    Listening to the national show on 95.5, the Fox Sports guys say they're getting a ton of texts and emails from Blazer fans freaking out. And they're all laughing saying it's going to be OK, and it's ONE game out of 82. haha.
