    LOL, Sly. I was talking with Cho about the board and he asked me if I had any thoughts on improving it, when someone took a picture and he immediately left our conversation to ask that person not to take any pictures. Never did get to give him my thoughts on improving the board (I had a couple). But I still have my Rich Cho signed copy of my "Is an NBA Transaction Legal?" chart.....

    Count me in for both attending (by myself as I'll be coming straight from work) and helping to pitch in for Wheels' meal. This will be my, what, 4th meet and greet with Wheels? Love them! Thanks for putting it together again, Sly!

    • Do these meet & greets require ass slapping like the players do in sports?

    Ass slapping? You wish.

    Wheels gets to punch you in the balls. Read the agreement, it's right there in black and white.

    I found it harmless and mildly amusing, much as myself.

    Wheels, if you're reading this, never let anything we say bother you. We like you...but as a public figure, you are fair game. Take our jokes as an affirmation of your greatness.

    I will be there. Sly, would you please repost details. I'm sure they are somewhere in this thread, but that would require me reading the thread and I'm spent from just logging in.

    Things I'd love to ask Wheels:

    1) Does he watch other games on his days off? If so, who does he like listening to from other cities/networks?
    2) What are his opinions of how the Blazers are covered in Portland?
    3) 3 calls of his that stick out in his mind (whether "exciting", or "heartbreaking", or just plain "memorable")?
    4) What he thinks of "alternative 'media'" like RC2, and you and Nate getting "access"?
