    Next season is the Blazers 50th (gold) Anniversary season. Is there anything you think the team should do to celebrate?

    Like, a specialized logo? If they play on Feb 6th (seriously, they HAVE to play a home game on Feb 6th 2020), it should be in their original style uniforms, etc.

    Any ideas? Maybe @SlyPokerDog can let the proper people know about some of our ideas (even if they laugh at them and say "why? we'll be in Seattle by then").

    So, whats your hopes for the 50th?

    Maybe do something special for 50 year season ticket holders.

    The rest of us are laughing at how clueless of a statement that is.

    I'm sure they will do a lot of things for it. My guess is that they will have a special uniform (or at least a patch on all jerseys) and a 50th Anniversary logo on the court.

    A golden 2% because 2% is a good championship percentage, no? F^#$*&$^.

    Naive question, but why Feb 6?

    That's the teams "birthday", when Harry Glickman found out the city was granted an NBA team.

    I would hope the rest of us would also realize I was making fun of the people who think the team is moving. You know, I figured someone who was making a post about the teams upcoming 50th season wouldn't probably be fearing that the team is moving to Seattle.

    How about the "50 greatest Trail Blazers" of all time? Tho ironically, a few of those who had their #'s retired wouldn't make the cut.

    ...replace everything that is the color red with the color gold -- all jerseys, the court painting, banners, murals, etc etc -- basically everything in and around the arena and all team related gear :)
