    Wow, some people don't want others to know who they are? It's not like we are staring at your drivers license or anything. It's no big deal, this is an anonymous forum and we have all said things we regret. It's fun to get together, have a couple beers and hear awesome things from wheels.

    For fucks sake, a ton of us showed up to the blazers practice facility tours and nothing happened. Except an awkward rich cho speech and free pizza

    Some of us aren't on the up-and-up. There are police, Mafia, and the CIA. Me, I just sneak in with Maris and watch you guys through binoculars.

    Cho was actually pretty cool. Really eager to meet everyone. Even bought us all pizza, lol.

    After he got done talking with everyone he invited us to tour his office. On one wall he had this giant board with free agents and a ranking system. People started taking pictures of it and he jumps up telling all of them to stop.

    I expect to be there and will chip in for Wheels. Maybe the more drinks we buy him, the more loquacious he will become.......

    Hey Sly, could we post questions for Wheels if we can't make it? I'd like to know how he feels about the new guys

    What do you mean you can't make it? You already said you're coming, even making your wife drive your truck. You don't come not only are you banned but I'm changing your voter registration to republican and making you vote for Trump.

    Wish I could be there, sounds like a great fun time. But have plans to be in Idaho that week.

    True story.

    I had a wonderful dog that passed away of old age about 2 years ago. She loved to listen to Wheels on the radio. Wheels was the only radio show she had any interest in. She would quietly lie on the floor in front of the radio and listen to his voice, then leave when the game was over and Wheels was off the air.
