    I remember Bill Schonley saying it was something he used to say when he was a baseball announcer after someone hit a line drive.

    I have a hard enough time watching college bball, so I do nothing outside of watching the Timbers and participate in Army volunteer/drinking events. The Soccer City USA site is saying he only had two years of experience and is a pretty big project. Biggest thing was trading Cooper, getting a #1 next year, and allocation money for a signing that is heavily rumored for next week. Merritt Paulson has been tweeting pretty frequently about it and would not do anything to cross the Army. Heck, he even came out to the Shed Culture variety show for a sketch.

    I think Wheels was having a bad day or something because I know for a fact that he knows it's Rose and not Rip. Been right next to him after conceding a goal too many times FAMS

    So it's some sort of warp in the fabric of the Twitterverse or something? Got it...I think.

    I see no problem with both teams using the RCTID references, with the Timbers using Rose City, and Blazers using Rip City. I also see no problem with Timbers fans being a little miffed at it. I just wish both teams fan bases would accept each other and embrace both. No point in having a "my dick is bigger than your dick" contests.
