It's funny that HCP's avatar look slike there's a poster of some muscle-bound dude on the door behind the dog (which is just shadows)
BTW--I think I win because this is my four year old son: [video=youtube;E4kWdIDJjDw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4kWdIDJjDw[/video] You know he's a competitor by the "I won!" right after he gets off.
To be perfectly honest, I like the sport of basketball about as much as a root canal and like watching it even less... Yet, I follow, watch, discuss, "enjoy," read about, lament every Zers game and have for many many many years. THAT is fandom.
I went to every Blazers/Sonics game in Seattle for fives years when I lived up there in the 80's. Wore my Buck jersey to most of them. I also use purple and yellow toilet paper. Go Blazers
Iwas a Blazer fan long before many of you were a twinkle in your daddy's eye. From day one and being poor laboring guy, I listened to almost all of the games on radio partly because Iworked long hours and lived 75 miles away from Meorial Collisum. Iadvanced in my job I would get treated to tickets to a game now and then from my company sales department if no one want to go from sales. Usualy not the best opponets but I went anyway. Now due to comcast i can't get the games on tv needtodrive to my daughters home just to watch or must still listen to the games. nate doesn't look so bad next to Rolland Todd and LA and Roy look perrty good too. i hope to get at least one more championship before i die. I win!!!!
