Yeah, the Clips interviewed her husband, Cash Warren during the third quarter. They barely showed her. Such is life in LA I guess.
I think you and I were the only two who found those commercials during a Clipper game hilarious. Could you imagine if if a bail bond company wanted to advertise back in the days of the Jail Blazers? It reminds me of when we really sucked and got Honeybucket as a sponsor. Nothing says you're a shitty team like a portable toilet company.
DaRizzle, please go through who everyone was. I recognize you (from the T-shirt) and XericX (from his T-shirt, too).
I commented on that very thing in the Clipper/Blazer game thread. With NBALP, I get to listen to almost every broadcast group in the league, and those guys are terrific. They're clearly enthusiastic about the home team, but totally fair to the opposition. I would love it if Mike & Mike were more like them.
And you know how hard it is for me to say anything nice about LAL. I have to say Pete Pranica is among the worst in the league. I never realized how terrible he was until he left Portland for Memphis. Then I actually got a little embarrassed when I thought about people watching a Portland feed with Pranica extolling the virtues of Telfair, Monia, Khryapa and Ha.
Thanks to Xericx and DaRizzle for a great time at the game. I wish you all could have hung out with these guys. They were a lot of fun. Wish we could have stuck around and met up with HCP. Oh well. I don't know if you could tell from the panning cameras, but there were easily a couple hundred Blazer fans there. They were all over the place. I feel a little bad for the clips. They have the best fans and anouncers in L.A., but just can't get over the top (or out of the bottom). I'm bottom right on picture 2 in the red jersey. I think we were the only S2 members there. Hopefully Xericx or DaRizzle will post some of the pictures they took from our half time meeting.
I just watched the end of the game on DVR to see what you guys are talking about. Fucking hilarious. I like the part when you get kicked out. Hahaha!! Way to represent.
You know, it's only a matter of time, if DaRizzle keeps posting here, watching the Blazers, and hanging with guys like Reep and Xericx, before he realizes the error of his ways and renounces his association with all things Laker. I fully expect that within a year he'll change his handle to Drizzle, move to the rainy northwest, start growing webs between his toes, open a Starbucks and become a Blazer fan for life.
I'm going to attempt it. I captured the video. I've never uploaded anything to youtube however. Also if anyone remembers approximately where in the game HCP was waiving from the truck, I'll capture it as well.
Here it is. It's rushed. I'm actually working. Hope I don't get fired!!! Ok it's been redone.
