how to become a blazer fan in 3.5 minutes
Posted: April 15, 2009
portland trail blazers play their last season game tonight against the denver nuggets. they will be playing here in portland at the rose garden and if you aren’t going to the game make sure you catch it on channel 8. it is going to be a great game and we need this win.
i am hoping channing frye will get some more minutes. the other day he called early in the morning cause his internet went out – i said well, did you call comcast?
and he did – so being the super effin’ nice guy i am, i went over to his place and fixed it. which really isn’t a big deal since he lives literally in the same zip code. when i fixed it, and i did, he asked if he could do anything for me. i had been harassing him for months for a jersey. so i said i want a jersey – one you actually wore in a game.
he said no problem and tossed me the largest piece of clothing i now own. i scanned it’s tag to prove authenticity.
channing told me that they have to pay for all of their jerseys. and they are like $180 a pop. i figured they would get them for free since they get so much other free shit. but i was dead wrong.
i also scanned this quirky oden sticker i got at weiden + kennedy a few weeks back.
if you are even slightly into the blazers you have got to be pumped right now. this team rocks and i am a believer they will go all the way. i am even willing to pull a nancy kerrigan on kobe’s ass. and that sounds bad.
GO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
so after you bash him in the knee…will you be getting implants and celebrity boxing??

I am SO glad that they killed the Thunder. Me being from Portland and my husband being from Seattle, there was always some interesting dialog between us regarding the Blazers and Sonics and now the Sonics are GONE! And he despises the Thunder… It’s just a matter of time before he’s a Blazer fan! *insert evil laugh here*

Diggles – is that you? What’s going on? You KNOW you blazer fans gotta get through us Laker fans … What’s going on with db Clay? Why the “tribute” banner? Indulge me. Adam at the LA Times.

Great highlight clip. I can watch that all day. And that is a really cool story about Channing giving you his jersey and all. I’m surprised they pay for their own jerseys, too. You’re like my Blazer insider.
Well, being the super huge mega Blazer fan I am, I was at the Denver game (awesome win!!) and as soon as it was over I went outside and got my place in line to buy playoff tickets the next morning. Waited 13 hours. I get 4 tickets to game 1. Didn’t go the way we all hoped, but it’s just one game. HUGE game tonight! GO BLAZERS!
