    That first half against the Spurs was phenomenal. Instead of hanging their heads because of all the injuries--as a lot of teams would have done--the Blazers came out and played with heart--and they've got the lead. They're giving the Spurs all they can handle with basically a bunch of scrubs. I love it!!

    These guys are showing me something, and it's very impressive.

    BLAZERS WIN! BLAZERS WIN! BLAZERS WIN!

    Oh my God. This is sensational. I will NEVER forget this game. This is what sports is all about, my friends. The Blazers had absolutely no chance to win this game, with half their roster on the bench, and yet they found a way to do it. Take that, Spurs!!

    Ha, ha, ha!!! Yes, I'm giddy.

    Put it in the record book, Baby. Blazers 98, Spurs 94.

    We need to give this crew a nickname. I dub them, after my father's unit, The Walking Dead.

    I'm utterly speechless right now ... I've never really gotten choked up about sports, but there's something incredibly awe inspiring about what I just witnessed.

    That was a complete team victory. Everyone did a little something to make this win happen...was anyone else screaming in their living room?! What a game, when we all thought without a Roy, we would have had problems...

    For tonight...No Roy, No Problem...(but please come back soon) :)

    Sorry, but I just can't get over this win. I'm literally jumping out of my skin.

    Wow. That's all I can say. Wow.
