    I wonder how many tries it took him to finally make it. I noticed that there was a bunch of balls in the back of the plane. Still, pretty impressive.

    The news report I saw on it said it was their 2nd attempt.

    This should be in the OT section. It has nothing to do with the Trail Blazers or the NBA.

    I think it could lead to a Designated Hitter rule being the developed for the NBA. Instead of players like Shaq and Pryz missing free throws we could just use the blimp to shoot them.

    I like how the woman who looks pregnant at the Early Show says the shot was done in Austin...I'm guessing the shot was taken closer to College Station.
